Vadami Bai vs Shaik Hussain And Anr. on 15 March, 1979
7-B. In this case the sale was confirmed on 25th November, 1970, and a petition was filed to implead the auction purchaser on 21st October, 1971, and it was allowed on 7th February, 1972. Thus, the petition to implead her was filed within one year from the date of the confirmation of sale. the fact that it was allowed after more than one year will not make any difference. As held by the Madras High Court in Port of Madras v. Good Year India Ltd., (1973) 1 Mad Lj 296, Section 22 of the Limitation Act must be construed as meaning that the date of the application should be taken as the date when the new party was impleaded.
