P.C. Varghese vs Devaki Amma Balambika Devi & Ors on 7 October, 2005

10. The Hon'ble Supreme Court in P.C.Varghese's case has held that in view of Section 22(1)(a) of the Specific Relief Act, 1963, the court could grant a decree for partition and separate possession of the property in addition to a decree for specific performance of contract. In the case before the Hon'ble Surpeme Court, the appellant had relinquished his claim in respect of the property belonging to the minor and he also prayed for a decree for partition and such a prayer having been allowed, the Hon'ble Supreme Court held that no exception could be taken to the decree of the learned trial court granting decree for partition and possession besides the decree for specific performance. Relying on this ration, this can be safely held that the defendant Lahiri was entitled to sell his specified and determined 1/4th share of the property namely agricultural land in question. Therefore, the character of the property to be joint between the four brothers cannot deter this court or even could not have deterred the learned trial court in upholding such decree for specific performance.

Saradamani Kandappan vs Mrs. S. Rajalakshmi, Mr. S. ... on 19 June, 2002

In the case of Mrs. Saradamani Kandappan vs. Mrs. S.Rajalakshmi & Ors.- 2011 (2) WLC (SC) 632 relied upon by the learned counsel for the appellant-defendants, the Hon'ble Supreme Court held that though suit for specific performance need not be decreed merely because it is filed within the period of limitation by ignoring the time-limits stipulated in the agreement and the Courts will also frown upon suits which are not filed immediately after the breach/refusal. The fact that limitation is three years does not mean a purchaser can wait for 1 or 2 years to file a suit and obtain specific performance. The three years period is intended to assist purchasers in special cases, as for example, where the major part of the consideration has been paid to the vendor and possession has been delivered in part performance, where equity shifts in favour of the purchaser.
