Motilal Jain vs Smt.Ramdasi Devi & Ors on 20 July, 2000

43. The ruling relied on by the learned Counsel for the Appellant in (2006) 6 SCC 420 [Motilal Jain vs. Ramdasi Devi (Smt) and Others] is the case where major portion of the sale consideration that is 2/3rd was paid at the time of execution of contract and only a small amount has to be paid to execute the sale deed. Therefore, the Honourable Supreme Court had held that willingness to pay the remaining amount is apparent. Here, the initial payment of Rs.60,000/- itself had not been proved by the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff claims that he paid to Rs.60,000/- as advance for the sale amount to one Ramamoorthi to whom the first Defendant owe repayment of loan of Rs.60,000/-. Whether 45/66 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 17/10/2025 08:16:14 pm ) S.A.No.470 & 540 of 2013 the amount was paid to Ramamoorthi had not been proved. P.W-2 attesting witness Anbazhagan and P.W-3 scribe Raja admitted that they have not seen the money being given by the Plaintiff to the Defendant. Under those circumstances, merely the ruling cited by the learned Counsel for the Appellant will not help the case of the Plaintiff in O.S.No.240 of 2004 to get a decree for specific performance. Hence, it is rejected.

Nazir Mohamed vs J.Kamala And Ors. on 27 August, 2020

45. The ruling reported in (2020) 19 SCC 57 [Nazir Mohamed vs. J.Kamala and Others] cited by the learned Counsel for the Plaintiff in O.S.No.240 of 2004 deals with Second Appeal arising out of specific performance of contract for sale and it deals with stages of the Second Appeal. When there is concurrent finding, substantial question of law does not arise. Here the substantial question of law had been framed by the then learned Judge already. In the above ruling cited by the learned Counsel for the Plaintiff in O.S.No.240 of 2004, this Court had issued guidelines for disposal of Second Appeal. That will not help the case of the Plaintiff in O.S.No. 240 of 2004. Hence, it is rejected.
