Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of possession following the redemption of a mortgage under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882. It held that upon redemption, the mortgagor is entitled to immediate possession of the property, and any failure to deliver possession constitutes a wrongful act. The Court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, ordering the defendants to vacate the premises and restore possession to the plaintiffs, thereby reinforcing the rights of mortgagors post-redemption.
