Specific Performance Under Contract Law | Continuous Readiness & Willingness Mandatory Even After Agreement Proof: Punjab & Haryana HC
The Punjab & Haryana High Court ruled that proving an agreement to sell alone is insufficient for specific performance; the plaintiff must demonstrate continuous readiness and willingness to perform. Five years of inaction after title perfection defeats equitable relief, reinforcing that specific performance is not an automatic remedy but a discretionary equitable relief requiring active compliance.
