https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=456180 Bombay HC dismissed a society's suit seeking declaration of invalidity of a lease deed allegedly executed by its President without authority. The court held that the society's charter authorized the President to represent it in all matters, with only restrictions on important subjects requiring Administrative Body resolution. Since no constitutional restriction existed on creating property leases, third parties need not inquire into internal management procedures once authority is established. Under Evidence Act Section 106, the burden of proving lack of authority regarding internal statutes lay with the plaintiff society, which failed to discharge this burden. en-us Thu, 20 Jun 2019 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 04 Jul 2024 23:20:39 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=456180 Bombay HC dismissed a society's suit seeking declaration of invalidity of a lease deed allegedly executed by its President without authority.
