The appeal challenges the trial court's order dated 1.2021 dismissing the application for temporary injunction (Exh-5) in Special Civil Suit No. 120 of 2020, filed by minor plaintiff through next friend (maternal uncle of minor's mother) seeking cancellation of Banakhat dated 15.6.2019, GPA dated 16.11.2019, and sale deed dated 16.11.2019. [1] (!) (!) (!)

Suit property is ancestral joint family property; minor's father deceased; natural guardian (mother) sold minor's undivided share without prior court permission under Section 8(2) of Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956 (HMGA); plaintiff claims transaction void/voidable, no legal necessity, and interim injunction warranted as prima facie case, balance of convenience, and irreparable injury exist. (!) [3][5]

Agreement to sell recites payment of Rs. 20 Lakh to minor and intent to obtain court permission; separate amounts allocated per seller's shares, with cheques issued individually, including to minor's guardian for fixed deposit until majority; sale deed recites sale for minor's benefit, full consideration received by family. [5] (!)

Defendant No.1 (purchaser) argues: no partition by metes and bounds occurred; property sold as undivided joint family share; Section 8(2) HMGA inapplicable to undivided interest in joint family property managed by natural guardian/Karta; sale for minor's benefit exempts prior permission; next friend lacks locus standi as mother (natural guardian) alive and residing with minor; third-party suit suggests motive to extract money. (!) (!) (!)

Section 8(1) HMGA empowers natural guardian for acts benefiting minor or estate; Section 8(2) prohibits sale/mortgage/transfer of minor's immovable property without prior court permission; contravention under Section 8(3) renders disposal voidable (not void) at minor's instance; permission under Section 8(4) only for necessity/evident advantage. (!) (!) (!) (!) (!) (!)

Section 8 HMGA applies to minor's separate property, not undivided interest in joint family property; no natural guardian contemplated for such undivided interest under Sections 6/12 HMGA; Karta/natural guardian may alienate joint family property (including minor's share) for legal necessity/benefit without court permission. (!) (!)

No actual partition; separate cheques per sellers' demands do not sever jointness; mother (natural guardian) received minor's share consideration for fixed deposit benefit; sale for minor's necessity/benefit; minor compensable in money; next friend (third party) unauthorized without court permission, mother not suing. (!)

Trial court order plausible; appellate interference limited to arbitrary/perverse discretion; no reassessment if trial view reasonably possible; appeal dismissed, suit expedited. (!) (!) (!)
