Acknowledgment or payment by an authorised agent can interrupt limitation where valid agency is established. The concept of agent duly authorised includes a lawful guardian, committee, manager or an agent authorised by such representative to sign an acknowledgment or make payment on behalf of a person under disability; such acts affect computation of the period of limitation. One co-obligor is not made chargeable solely because another co-obligor or that co-obligor's agent has signed an acknowledgment or made a payment. For Hindu law, acknowledgments or payments by a limited owner's authorised agent bind a reversioner, and those by a family manager bind the whole family.
