Which section of the Indian Succession Act, 1925 provides the general rule that a bequest to a person by a particular description is void if nobody answering that description exists at the testator’s death?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Section 112 supplies the general rule that a bequest to a person described in a particular way is void when nobody answering that description exists at the testator’s death. Its express exception addresses certain deferred possession and kindred descriptions; the question identifies the section, not an exception-free universal result.
