Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-30-1952

Reported in: AIR1953All139

Mushtaq Ahmad, J. 1. This is a judgment-debtor's appeal, and the only question to be decided is one of limitation.2. The decree in question was one on a simple mortgage dated the 12th August 1926,and was passed on a compromise fixing instalments on the 4th November 1931, No instalments having been paid, the decree-holder applied for the preparation of a final decree on the 5th November 1934, the previous day being a Sunday. This application, it is conceded, was thus made on the last day of limitation and was, therefore, within time.3. On the 5th December 1934, the court ordered that a final decree be prepared, and such a decree was prepared on the 19th February 1935.4. On the 19th October 1938, the first application for execution was made. This was obviously after the expiry of three years from the date of the final decree and had, therefore, been made beyond time.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-29-1952

Reported in: AIR1952All716

S.B. Chandiramani, J. 1. It appears that on the 10th April, 1934, Debi Singh, one of the appellants, executed a deed described as a deed of conditional sale in favour of one Atbal Singh (predecessor of some of the respondents) in respect of a one-third share of mahal Chaudhri Harpal Singh in village Bangarmau, District Unnao. Debi Singh applied under Section 4 of the Encumbered Estates Act showing the property covered thereby as his own. He claimed that the transaction evidenced by the sale-deed of 1934 was in fact a mortgage by conditional sale. Atbal Singh objected saying that it was an out and out sale subject to a condition of repurchase within a specified time. The Special Judge held that Section 58(c) of the Transfer of Property Act when correctly construed does not indicate that every deed of sale containing a condition for repurchase operated only as a deed of mortgage and the true test still is the intention of the parties which may be gathered from the language of the deed an...
