Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court, while adjudicating on appeals under Article 136, upheld the High Court's decision regarding the specific performance of a contract under Section 14 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The Court emphasized that the agreement between Aditya Birla Nuvo Ltd. and Liberty Agencies was valid and enforceable, despite claims of breach and subsequent eviction proceedings initiated by A.C. Thirumalaraj. The Court affirmed the High Court's order for a temporary injunction under Order 39 Rules 1 and 2 of the CPC, restraining the defendants from alienating the suit property pending the suit's resolution.
