Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the interpretation of Section 10(1) of the Specific Relief Act, 1963, emphasizing that specific performance of a contract can be enforced only when the terms of the contract are clear and unambiguous. The Court held that the absence of clarity in the contract's terms renders it unenforceable, thus upholding the lower court's decision to deny specific performance in this case. The judgment reinforces the principle that contracts must be precise to be legally binding.
