Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the dispute over a property lease and subsequent Agreement to Sell between Kanti and Jitender. The Court upheld the High Court's decision that Jitender was not entitled to specific performance of the contract due to his failure to establish readiness and willingness to perform, as required under Section 16(c) of the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The Court also noted that the trial court's dismissal of Jitender's suit was justified, while remanding Kanti's suit for further consideration.
