Uttarakhand Judicial Services Prelims Mock Test - 1 - Question 3

In which of the following cases has the Supreme Court held that the law as to undue influence was the same in the case of a gift inter-vivos, as in the case of a contract?

Detailed Solution for Uttarakhand Judicial Services Prelims Mock Test - 1 - Question 3
In Subhash Chandra v. Ganga Prasad, AIR 1967 SC 878, the Supreme Court held that the principles of undue influence applied to gifts as they do to contracts. The case involved a gift of property by an elderly woman to her nephew, which was challenged by her son as being the result of undue influence. The Court found that the burden of proving that the gift was made freely and voluntarily was on the nephew, who was claiming the validity of the gift. The Court observed that the same principles of protection against undue influence applied to gifts as they do to contracts, as both involve the transfer of property rights and may be subject to coercion or undue influence. The Court held that the evidence did not establish that the donor had made the gift voluntarily and without any undue influence, and set aside the gift. This case established that the law relating to undue influence in contracts also applies to gifts, and that the burden of proof in such cases rests with the person claiming the validity of the transaction.

Detailed Solution for Uttarakhand Judicial Services Prelims Mock Test - 1 - Question 13

Detailed Solution for Uttarakhand Judicial Services Prelims Mock Test - 1 - Question 15
In a mortgage agreement, the mortgagor (borrower) pledges the property as security for the loan given by the mortgagee (lender). The mortgagor has the right to redeem the property by paying off the loan within the stipulated time period. However, in case the mortgagor defaults in payment, the mortgagee has the right to initiate legal proceedings to recover the loan amount by taking possession of and selling the mortgaged property. One such legal remedy available to the mortgagee is to file a suit for foreclosure. A suit for foreclosure is a legal action taken by the mortgagee to obtain a decree from the court that bars the mortgagor from redeeming the property. This means that the mortgagor loses all rights to the property, and the mortgagee becomes the absolute owner of the property. To file a suit for foreclosure, the mortgagee must prove to the court that the mortgagor has defaulted in payment and has failed to repay the loan even after receiving legal notices. The court will then pass a decree that bars the mortgagor from redeeming the property, and allows the mortgagee to take possession and sell it to recover the outstanding loan amount
