Sushil K. Chakravarty (D) Thr.Lrs vs M/S.Tej Properties Pvt Ltd

The Supreme Court upheld the Delhi High Court's dismissal of two intra-court appeals concerning a dispute over agricultural land and a related agreement to sell under specific performance principles. The Court emphasized that the agreement dated 17.3.1992, which involved a substantial earnest money payment, was binding despite the defendant's failure to perform. The Court affirmed that the legal heirs of the deceased defendant could not escape the obligations of the agreement, thereby reinforcing the enforceability of contracts under the Specific Relief Act, 1963.
