2019 0 Supreme(SC) 267 : The legal documents explicitly contrast Section 6(a) of the Transfer of Property Act with Section 43, stating that Section 6(a) deals with substantive law by prohibiting the transfer of certain interests, while Section 43 operates as a rule of estoppel (a rule of evidence) that allows a transfer to ''''fasten itself'''' on the title subsequently acquired by the transferor. The court emphasized that there is no necessary conflict between the two provisions, as they operate in different spheres and under different conditions. The judgment in Jumma Masjid v. Kodimaniandra Deviah, AIR 1962 SC 847, is cited to support this distinction, clarifying that Section 43 can apply even where a transferor has only ''''spes succession'''' (a mere hope of succession) at the time of transfer, and that the applicability of Section 43 is not negated by Section 6(a). The court further notes that Section 43 applies regardless of whether the transferor acted fraudulently or innocently, as long as the transferee acted on the representation. This establishes that Section 43 can ''''feed the grant by estoppel'''' even when the transferor lacks immediate title, which is a key contrast with the substantive bar imposed by Section 6(a).Checking relevance for Kartarsingh (Dead) By Lrs.

1994 0 Supreme(SC) 98 : The document directly contrasts Section 6(a) and Section 43 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882. It explains that Section 43 creates a rule of estoppel, allowing a transferee to claim an interest in property if the transferor falsely represents authority to transfer, provided the transferee acted on that representation. However, Section 43 does not apply if the transferee knew or should have known the transferor lacked title. In contrast, Section 6(a) renders a transfer void if the transferor has no title or authority to transfer. The document emphasizes that a void contract under Section 6(a) is ''''non est'''' (does not exist) from the beginning, meaning it cannot subsist for Section 43 to apply. Thus, the key distinction is that Section 43 protects a transferee who reasonably relied on a representation, while Section 6(a) invalidates transfers where the transferor lacks title, regardless of the transferee''''s knowledge. The court held that since the sale of the minor''''s share was void under Section 6(a) due to lack of court permission and the mother''''s limited authority, the contract never subsisted, making Section 43 inapplicable.Checking relevance for Jumma Masjid, Mercara VS Kodimaniandi-a Deviah...
1962 0 Supreme(SC) 3 : The judgment directly addresses the contrast between Section 6(a) and Section 43 of the Transfer of Property Act. It clarifies that Section 6(a) prohibits the transfer of mere possibilities such as the chance of an heir apparent succeeding to an estate, while Section 43 provides protection to transferees who purchase property based on a representation that the transferor has a present and transferable interest, even if the transferor only had a spes successionis at the time. The court explicitly rejects the argument that Section 43 is nullified by Section 6(a), stating that the two provisions operate in different spheres: Section 6(a) is substantive law, while Section 43 is a rule of estoppel. The judgment emphasizes that a transfer which ''''purports'''' to be of a present interest (in praesenti) falls within Section 43, even if the transferor only had a spes successionis, and that the distinction between a transfer of a mere chance and a representation of present title is legally significant. The court cites Alamanaya Kunigari Nabi Sab v. Murukuti Papiah (29 Mad LJ 733) as supporting this distinction, and contrasts it with Official Assignee, Madras v. Sampath Naidu (65 Mad LJ 588), where a different view was taken, holding that Section 43 could not validate transfers that violated Section 6(a). The judgment ultimately affirms that Section 43 applies to transfers by persons with only a spes successionis, provided the representation was of a present interest, and that this does not conflict with Section 6(a).Checking relevance for H.

2004 5 Supreme 494 : The document contrasts Section 6(a) of the Transfer of Property Act, which prohibits transfer of mere possibilities like spes successionis (chance of succession), with Section 43 of the same Act, which allows enforcement of contracts for transfer of property where the vendor acquires full interest after the agreement. It clarifies that Section 43 cannot be invoked when the vendor only has a mere chance of succession and the reversioners (who have no transferable interest) are not parties to the agreement. The court held that estoppel under Section 43 does not bind reversioners who objected to the transfer and were not parties to the original agreement, thus rejecting the argument that the prior vendee could enforce the contract against them. This directly addresses the contrast between Section 6(a) (prohibiting transfer of mere possibilities) and Section 43 (allowing enforcement of contracts where interest is later acquired), and explains the limits of estoppel in such cases.Checking relevance for Tanu Ram Bora VS Promod Ch.

2019 2 Supreme 218 : The legal documents explicitly contrast Section 6(a) and Section 43 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, in the context of estoppel. Section 43 provides that where a person fraudulently or erroneously represents they are authorised to transfer immovable property, the transfer operates on any interest the transferor acquires during the subsistence of the contract, at the option of the transferee. This section is grounded in the principles of estoppel and equity, preventing the transferor from benefiting from their own wrong. In contrast, Section 6(a) invalidates transfers where the transferor has no title or interest at the time of transfer. The documents clarify that Section 43 applies when the transferee acts on the representation, even if the transferor was fraudulent, but fails if the transferee knew the transferor lacked title. This distinction is illustrated in the case of Jumma Masjid, where it was held that Section 43 does not apply if the transferee knew the transferor had no title, in which case the transfer fails under Section 6(a). The documents further emphasize that Section 43 gives an option to the transferee, not the transferor, and protects the transferee''''s rights when the transferor later acquires interest, thereby preventing the transferor from challenging the transfer after receiving consideration.
