K.K. Velusamy vs N. Palaanisamy

The Supreme Court addressed a suit for specific performance under the Specific Relief Act, 1963, where the respondent claimed the appellant failed to execute a sale deed despite receiving an advance payment. The appellant contended that the agreement was merely a security for a loan, not a genuine sale agreement. The Court held that the evidence presented, including electronic recordings, warranted further examination, thus allowing the reopening of evidence for cross-examination of witnesses to ascertain the true nature of the agreement.
