Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appeal concerning the inclusion of a lease premises in the inventory proceedings under the Inventory Proceedings Act. The Court ruled that the partnership firm does not constitute part of the deceased's estate, as married daughters are not entitled to the tenanted premises. The decision confirmed the lower court's order denying the appellants' objections regarding the valuation and listing of assets, thereby affirming the legal principle that the rights of married daughters in such matters are limited.
