A pleaded pre existing fiduciary relationship can fall within the statutory exception to benami prohibition, and whether a transaction is genuine fiduciary trust or a disguised benami is a mixed question of law and fact requiring evidence; summary dismissal at the plaint stage was inappropriate where issues had been framed and the onus to establish the statutory bar rested on the respondent.
