P. Ravindranath vs Sasikala

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision confirming the trial court's decree for specific performance of the agreement to sell under Section 10 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The Court established that the agreement remained valid despite the delay in registration due to government restrictions, emphasizing that the plaintiffs had made substantial payments and the defendant's forfeiture of earnest money was unjustified. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the plaintiffs' right to enforce the contract.
