Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

All three decisions examine acknowledgment and its effect on limitation. Mazda interpreted section 19 of the 1908 Act, the predecessor of section 18; Prabhakaran applied acknowledgment to mortgage redemption; Budhraja explains admission of a subsisting jural relationship and limits renewal to the acknowledged liability. Acknowledgment must be written, signed and made before the limitation period expires; it does not revive an already barred claim under section 18.
