Choose the correct option with respect to the readiness and willingness requirement in a suit for specific performance:
Detailed Solution for Punjab Judicial Services Prelims Mock Test - 2 - Question 25
The Kerala High Court has held that 'readiness' and 'willingness' under Section 16 (c) of the Specific Relief Act, 1963 are distinct and one does not imply the other. The court observed that while readiness refers to the capacity of the plaintiff to enforce a contract, willingness refers to the conduct of the plaintiff warranting performance. According to the court, specific performance of a contract can only be enforced if readiness is backed by willingness. In this context, the court observed that while readiness refers to the financial capacity of the plaintiff/vendor to pay the sale consideration, willingness is a different component referable to the conduct of the vendor. Therefore, it is not axiomatic that one who is ready is automatically willing to perform the contract. Per contra, one who is ready with the funds can still be unwilling to perform the contract for different reasons altogether, say for example, the vendor deems the transaction not feasible/profitable for commercial reasons.
