#Contractual Performance

Bombay HC rules that mere financial hardship or commercial benefit from streaming does not justify interim payment under Section 9 when contractual performance remains disputed. The arbitral tribunal must first adjudicate contested obligations before interim relief can be granted.

The Punjab & Haryana High Court ruled that a sale deed cannot be registered under Section 77 of the Registration Act if the buyer fails to pay the balance consideration, as execution requires adherence to all contractual terms. This decision reinforces that registration is contingent on substantive performance, not merely formalities like signatures, impacting property transactions and contractual compliance.
