Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision affirming that the properties in question were not self-acquired by the appellant but belonged to the Joint Hindu Family, thus entitling the plaintiff and other defendants to a share. The Court reiterated the principles governing joint family property, emphasizing that properties purchased with joint family funds are to be treated as joint family properties. The appeal was dismissed, maintaining the partition order as per the shares determined by the Trial Court.
