A directs that his zamindari of X be sold and the proceeds invested for the benefit of B. How is the bequest to B classified?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Illustration (iv) to section 142 holds that this bequest is specific. B is given the proceeds of a particular property, zamindari X, which is distinguished from the rest of A's estate. The conversion into money does not turn it into a general legacy.
