Section 54 TPA | Possession from unregistered contract for sale is permissive, not adverse : Uttarakhand HC
The Uttarakhand High Court held that possession based on an unregistered contract for sale is merely permissive and cannot confer adverse possession unless the plaintiff specifically pleads hostile animus. The ruling clarifies that mere contractual possession does not trigger Section 54 TPA protections, affecting land claimants relying on informal sale agreements.
