https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=183899 Section 14(1) of the Hindu Succession Act enlarges a Hindu widow's limited estate into absolute ownership where she possesses property in lieu of her pre-existing maintenance right, enabling her to validly transfer it by gift. Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure confines second appellate interference with factual findings to cases involving a formulated substantial question of law; well-considered first appellate findings cannot ordinarily be reversed without cogent legal grounds. The stated outcome is that the widow's gift deed was valid and the High Court's interference with the appellate findings was unsustainable. en-us Thu, 30 Nov 2006 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 24 Jun 2016 13:18:39 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=183899 Section 14(1) of the Hindu Succession Act enlarges a Hindu widow's limited estate into absolute ownership where she possesses property in lieu of her pre-existing maintenance right, enabling her to validly transfer it by gift.
