Biswanath Ghosh(Dead By Lrs.) & Ors vs Gobinda Ghosh & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the interpretation of Section 14 of the Specific Relief Act, emphasizing that specific performance of a contract can be enforced unless the contract is voidable or has been rescinded. The Court held that mere delay in filing for specific performance does not automatically bar relief, provided the delay is not inordinate and does not cause prejudice to the other party. The judgment reaffirmed the principles governing specific performance, ensuring that equitable relief is accessible in appropriate circumstances.
