Under section 10 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963, as substituted with effect from 1 October 2018, the specific performance of a contract shall be enforced by the court subject to section 11(2), section 14 and section 16. Granting the decree is thus the general rule rather than a matter of discretion, but it is not automatic in every case: the contracts barred by section 14 and the personal bars in section 16 (such as failure to prove readiness and willingness) still apply. (Formerly, sections 10 and 20 made the relief discretionary.)
