In accordance with the provisions of section 26 of the Specific Relief Act, when an instrument can be rectified?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Section 26 of the Specific Relief Act allows rectification where, through fraud or mutual mistake of the parties, the instrument does not express their real intention, so an instrument "May be rectified when it doesn't represent the real intention of the parties because of fraud or mutual mistake of the parties"; a mistake of only one party does not suffice.
