Before the advent of the British and their active intervention in the Indian legal system, Hindus and Muslims were governed by their respective laws in relation to transfer of property. This arrangement worked adequately in the informal and traditional judicial system of panchayats because those who decided the matter were not only familiar with the nature of the dispute but also with the law and the litigants as well. However, the same scenario proved to be very confusing and uncertain with the establishment of the informal courts in India by the British. In this adversarial litigation system, the disputes were decided by impartial judges who were unfamiliar with the litigants and the distinctive social system of India. Realising the absence of a concrete and ascertainable law of property comparable to what they had in England, these courts applied English rules governing transfer of property with modifications to suit the Indian conditions. However, such application of the British principles even with modifications, at times, was grossly inappropriate due to the social and cultural differences between England and India. Thus, the desirability of enacting the law relating to transfer of property was perceived soon after the consolidation of British authority in India. In addition, various high courts in the absence of clear rules made a very liberal use of their own notions of the principles of equity, justice and good conscience, and laid down diametrically opposite principles further compounding the confusion and uncertainty. Even the Privy Council noted this uncertainty with concern, and attributed this undesirable scenario to a lack of codification of the law of property in India calling upon the authorities to take urgent steps in this direction.1 The first Law Commission2 was appointed by the British Queen primarily to codify the civil law in India including the one relating to transfer of property. This commission prepared the draft Bill in 1870, which was introduced in the Legislative Assembly in 1877.3 It was then referred to the select committee, was revised by it and was circulated for public opinion. In light of the suggestions, it was redrafted and referred to the second Law Commission.4 After several drafts, it was passed on 17 February 1882 and came into force on 1 July 1882. The Bill was based primarily on the English law of real property. Therefore, the basic substantive content was
