Kodoth Ambu Nair vs Echikan Cherekere Kelu Nair on 10 April, 1933
(i) Kodoth Ambu Nair v. Echikan Cherekere Kelu Nair, AIR 1933 PC 167
In this case Privy Council after quoting one of its earlier judgments held that one cannot at the same time blow hot and cold. He cannot say at one time that the transaction is valid and thereby obtain some advantage to which he could only be entitled on the footing that it is valid, and at another say it is void for the purpose of securing some further advantage.
