Estoppel does not apply where the alienee has not relied to their detriment on the reversioner's representation, and strict election does not apply where the reversioner received no transaction benefit. However, a presumptive reversioner's definite, positive consent and express agreement to abide by the alienation constitute a personal election to treat it as valid. Although mere inaction before succession opens does not bind the reversioner, such express assent bars that person from later challenging the alienation. en-us Fri, 01 Nov 1929 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 20 Jul 2026 16:59:26 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=470206 A Hindu widow's alienation without necessity is voidable rather than void and may be affirmed by a person entitled to challenge it.
