https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=415381 A purported sale of immovable property unsupported by any proved consideration is not a sale in law under section 54 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, and cannot divest the joint owner's undivided share. On the facts stated, the deeds executed by the attorney in favour of his wife and minor sons were treated as void, conferring no right, title or interest on the transferees, so the appellant retained an undivided half share and joint possession. A belated amendment seeking a declaration of invalidity was not barred by limitation because the original plaint had already pleaded that the deeds were null and void, and a void document may be ignored without separate declaratory relief. en-us Mon, 22 Nov 2021 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 04 Dec 2021 08:44:01 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=415381 A purported sale of immovable property unsupported by any proved consideration is not a sale in law under section 54 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, and cannot divest the joint owner's undivided share.
