Section 16(2) of the Limitation Act, 1963 applies when the person against whom a suit would have accrued dies before accrual. Limitation is counted:
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Section 16(2) provides that where the person against whom a right would have accrued dies before it accrues, the period is computed "from the time when there is a legal representative of the deceased against whom the plaintiff may institute such suit". Time does not run from the death or the notional accrual date, nor from the plaintiff's knowledge.
