Specific Performance Under Contract Law | Continuous Readiness & Willingness Mandatory; Equity Demands 12% Interest for 38-Year Delay : Punjab & Haryana HC

Punjab & Haryana HC reinforces that plaintiffs seeking specific performance must prove continuous readiness and willingness throughout the litigation. In a landmark ruling, the court awarded 12% interest on the balance consideration to balance equity after a 38-year delay in enforcing a 1988 land sale agreement, setting a precedent for equitable relief in long-pending property disputes.
