Property Law - Notes, Case Laws And Study Material

Property Law- The Transfer of Property Act came into existence in 1882. Before that, the transfer of immovable property was governed by English law and equity principles. This Act deals with the transfer of property inter vivos, i.e., a transfer between living persons. It contains the transfer of both movable and immovable property, but a major portion of the enactment applies to the transfers of immovable properties only.
