Period of limitation, as per Section 2 of the Limitation Act, 1963, means period of limitation prescribed for any _______ by the Schedule.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Under Section 2(j) of the Limitation Act, 1963, '"period of limitation" means the period of limitation prescribed for any suit, appeal or application by the Schedule, and "prescribed period" means the period of limitation computed in accordance with the provisions of this Act.'
Because the Schedule to the Limitation Act, 1963 is divided into three divisions covering suits, appeals, and applications, the definition in Section 2(j) encompasses "suit, application and appeal".
- "suit only", "application only", and "appeal only": Each omits two of the three proceedings covered by Section 2(j) and the Schedule.
