Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the Rajasthan High Court's judgment which partially allowed the appeal and directed the first defendant to refund the amount received along with interest. The Court emphasized that the second defendant's reliance on a Will was unsubstantiated as he failed to produce it in court, thus undermining his claim to the land. The Court held that the trial court's decree for specific performance of the sale agreement was justified, and the High Court's order was set aside, reinstating the trial court's decision.
