Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act, 1951, and a will may create a restricted or life estate where the statutory conditions for bequest are satisfied. Where a female legatee takes under such a will, Section 14(2) of the Hindu Succession Act, 1956 prevents enlargement of that limited interest into absolute ownership. A transfer made during the pendency of litigation, including after dismissal of a suit but while the appeal period is running and an appeal is in fact filed within limitation, remains subject to lis pendens under Section 52 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882. The impugned sale was therefore ineffective against the litigating parties. en-us Thu, 19 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 12 Feb 2019 17:46:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=278568 A bhumidhar with transferable rights may validly bequeath land by will under Section 169(1) of the U.P.
