Question

Under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 which one of the following is not correctly matched?

A.

Transfer by ostensible owner - Section 41

B.

Doctrine of part performance - Section 53B

C.

Fraudulent transfer - Section 53

D.

Doctrine of lis pendens - Section 52

Correct option is B


The correct section for the Doctrine of part performance is Section 53A, not Section 53B. The doctrine allows a transferee to defend possession of the property if certain conditions are met, even if the transfer has not been completed in the required legal form.
Information Booster
· Section 53A: Protects the possession of a transferee who has partially performed their part of a contract for the transfer of immovable property.
· Section 41: Deals with transfer by ostensible owner.
· Section 53: Deals with fraudulent transfer.
· Section 52: Covers the doctrine of lis pendens, which prevents the transfer of property under litigation.
Additional Knowledge
The doctrine of part performance is equitable and prevents a person from taking advantage of the formal deficiency in the transfer.
