Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's suit for specific performance of an Agreement dated July 18, 2004, concerning a property in New Delhi. The Court found that the appellant failed to demonstrate readiness and willingness to perform her contractual obligations, specifically the payment of 25% of the total consideration as required by the agreement. The Court affirmed the lower courts' decisions, which awarded the appellant Rs. 1 lakh with interest but denied specific performance due to non-compliance with the terms of the contract.
