Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision allowing the appeal of S. Natarajan regarding the property in question, emphasizing that the sale agreement dated 19.1.1984 was valid despite the defendant's claims of it being void due to the lease-cum-sale agreement with the Housing Board. The Court established that the plaintiff's possession and construction on the property were legitimate under the agreement, and the defendant's attempts to reclaim possession were unlawful. The Court affirmed the High Court's order for specific performance of the sale agreement, thereby reinforcing the enforceability of agreements made in good faith.
