P.Periasami (Dead) By Lrs vs P. Periathambi And Others on 11 October, 1995
12. The plea of ownership simpliciter is based on the concept of
title, which one may acquire through various sources like succession, gift,
will, sale, exchange, grant etc. etc. and the person in possession is
essentially to be treated as being in lawful possession. While on the
other hand when the plea of adverse possession is projected inherent is
the plea that someone else is the ownership of the property. (See: P.
Periasami (dead) by L.Rs. vs. P. Periathambi and others (1995) 6
SCC 523. Having said so, it can safely be concluded that the pleas
based on title and simultaneously on adverse possession are mutually
inconsistent and the latter does not begin to operate until the former is
renounced.

"29. In terms of Article 65 the starting point of limitation does
not commence from the date when the right of ownership arises

possession becomes adverse. (See Vasantiben Prahladji Nayak
v. Somnath Muljibhai Nayak)
S. M. Karim vs Mst. Bibi Sakina on 14 February, 1964
S M Karim v. Bibi Sakinal AIR 1964 SC 1254, Parsinni v. Sukhi (
1993 ) 4 SCC 375 and D N Venkatarayappa v. State of
Karnataka (1997) 7 SCC 567.) Physical fact of exclusive
possession and the animus possidendi to hold as owner in
exclusion to the actual owner are the most important factors that
are to be accounted in cases of this nature. Plea of adverse
r possession is not a pure question of law but a blended one of
fact and law. Therefore, a person who claims adverse
possession should show (a) on what date he came into
possession, (b) what was the nature of his possession, (c)
whether the factum of possession was known to the other party,

30. Animus possidendi is one of the ingredients of adverse
possession. Unless the person possessing the land has a
requisite animus the period for prescription does not commence.
As in the instant case, the appellant categorically states that his
possession is not adverse as that of true owner, the logical

corollary is that he did not have the requisite animus. (See Mohd.
Mohd. Ali v. Jagadish Kalita, SCC para 21.)"
