Ramakkammal Vs. C.G. Subbarathnam Iyer and ors.

Court : Chennai

Reported in : AIR1953Mad13; (1952)IIMLJ416

..... on appeal the chief court held that the mortgage in question was an anomalous mortgage and not a combination of a simple mortgage and a usufructuary mortgage and therefore section 68 of the act was inapplicable, as it was excluded by section 98 and passed a decree for possession only in accordance with the terms of the mortgage deed in substitution of the decree for sale granted by the learned subordinate judge. ..... in putting the mortgagee in possession of the property and if the suit was instituted within the period of 35 years, the judicial committee held that as the plaintiff was deprived of part of his security, he was entitled under section 68 of the act to recover the mortgage money as it became payable under s, 68 in conseauence of the failure to deliver possession. ..... as anomalous mortgages are now included in section 58 of the act the application of sections 68 and 67 of the act is not excluded as under the old law. ..... the subordinate judge who tried the action held that the plaintiff was entitled to a decree for sale under section 68 of the transfer of property act and passed a decree in his favour. ..... guruva', 14 mad 232 which considers the relevant provisions of the transfer of property act holds that a covenant to pay confers a right to sue for sale of the mortgaged property under section 67 of the act. ..... narayya', 41, mad 259 (fb) is no longer good law in view of the amended definition of a "usufructuary mortgage" in section 58 of the transfer of property act. .....

Coal India Limited Versu Anadian Commercial Corporation

Court : Kolkata

..... it is the very wording of the new york convention, that was inspired to make it acceptable to a larger number of countries with disparate legal systems, that makes the exercise of the jurisdiction by a judicial authority under section 45 of the act to be qualitatively different from the jurisdiction exercised by a judicial authority under section 8 of the 1996 act which has only to see if there is an arbitration agreement and whether such agreement covers the action that is before such judicial authority. ..... read in such light, the division bench opinion in white industries may either seem to have been impliedly overruled by fuerst day lawson or the dictum therein must be confined to a challenge to a new york convention award under section 34 of the 1996 act where the parties did not specify any seat of arbitration and, consequently, the law governing the matrix contract was also seen to be the law governing the arbitration. ..... the court recorded a further argument that upon section 9(b) of the 1961 act not being included in section 51 of the 1996 act, an anomaly in the previous indian law was removed since section 9(b) of the 1961 act was inconsistent with the new york convention as an award made in a notified foreign country would be a foreign award irrespective of the law governing the arbitration agreement. .....
