Residence
Residence, is a concept that may also be transitory. Even when qualified by the word 'ordinarily' the word 'resident' would not result in construction having the effect of a particular place for dwelling always or on permanent uninterrupted basis. Thus understood, even the requirement of a person being 'ordinarily resident' at a particular place is incapable of ensuring nexus between him and the place in question, Kuldip Nayar v. Union of India, AIR 2006 SC 3127.Residence, is flexible and must be construed accord-ing to the object and intent of the particular legislation where it may be found. It must be something more than occupation during occasional usual visits within the local limits of the court, more specially where there is residence outside those limits marked with a considerable measure of continuance, Paster J.S. Singh v. Jyotsana Singh, AIR 1982 MP 122 [See Divorce Act, 1869, s. 3(3)]Residence, is generally understood as referring to a person in connection with the place wh...

Ordinarily resides
Ordinarily resides, the expression 'ordinarily resides' signifies something more than a temporary residence. When a person leaves a place where he had been residing a permanent resident for good i.e., with no intention to come back and goes to some other place to live there, the former place where he used to live, classes to be his ordinary place of residence and the later place becomes his ordinary place of residence. The question of residence is largely a question of intention. However in cases of minor no question of intention can arise. The place has to be determined by finding out as to whether the minor was ordinarily residing and where such residence would have continued but for the recent removal of the minor to different place, Jagdish Chandra Gupta v. Vimla Gupta, AIR 2003 All 317....

Place of residence
Place of residence, the expression 'place of resi-dence' connotes a place where a person has his dwelling house, which need not necessarily be permanent or exclusive. A person may have more places of residence than one at a given time. A place occupied by a person with the intention of setting up a fixed, though not permanent, abode, would be deemed to be a place of residence. Sojourn for a purely temporary purpose will not constitute residence, and the place of sojourn will not be deemed a place of residence within the meaning of the Act: but where a person possesses establishment at more places than oneand spends time more or less considerable in all those places, as exigencies of his occupation, vocation or fancy demand, he would be deemed to have a place of residence at each of those places. The words of the definition in s. 2(10) read with s. 2(6) are sufficiently wide to include the case of a person who had a place of residence in India as well as a place of residence in an area ...
