Court : Supreme Court of India

Reported in : AIR1953SC1; [1953]4SCR243

..... whatever the difference might be between the english law and the indian law as regards the right to enforce decrees and securities for the due payment of a debt in the case of a surety who discharges a simple money debt and a surety who pays up a mortgage, it is still noteworthy that section v of the mercantile law amendment act of 1856 (england) provided for indemnification by the principal debtor for the advances made and loss sustained by the surety. 19. ..... three points were argued before us by learned counsel for the appellant; firstly, there was an assignment of the mortgage in favour of the appellant with the result that the entire rights of the mortgagee vested in him; secondly, even viewing the question as one of legal subrogation, he was entitled, under the principles of justice, equity and good conscience which governed the state of punjab, as the transfer of property act has not been applied to the state, to recover from the co-mortgagors not merely their shares in the sum of rs. ..... whether under customary law in the punjab, uncles exclude nephews or they take jointly, and whether succession is per stirpes or per capita, was the subject of disagreement at the bar before us. ..... as the transfer of property act has not been extended to the state of east punjab, it is unnecessary to decide whether section 92 is retrospective in its operation, on which point there has been a conflict of opinion between the several high courts. .....
