Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appeal regarding specific performance of a contract under Section 10 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The Court found that the plaintiff had demonstrated readiness and willingness to perform the contract, while the defendant failed to execute the sale deed despite receiving part payment. The Court emphasized that the agreement to sell was valid and enforceable, confirming the lower court's decree for specific performance.
