Which one of the following is not an essential condition for application of Rule of "Lis Pendens" under section 52 of the Transfer of Property Act.
Verified Answer
A. Pendency of a suit or proceeding
B. Pendency in a competent court
C. Suit must be collusive
D. Alienation must affect the rights of the other party
Explanation:
For the doctrine of Lis Pendens under Section 52 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, to apply, the suit or proceeding 'must not be collusive'. Therefore, 'Suit must be collusive' is not an essential condition; rather, its absence is a condition.
