A, a sculptor, agrees to sell to B "all my mods". A has both models and tools. Whether evidence can be adduced to show his intention:

Verified Answer
A. Yes
B. No
C. Inference should be drawn to see the agreement
D. Oral evidence is not admissible

Explanation:

This is a case of latent ambiguity. Sections 95 and 96 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, allow for extrinsic evidence to explain ambiguous terms in a document, especially when the language used is such as to apply partly to one and partly to another of two sets of facts, but not wholly to either. Therefore, evidence can be adduced to show A's intention.
