Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Section 92 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 gives the right of subrogation to any person other than the mortgagor who redeems the mortgaged property, such as a person interested in it, a surety for the mortgage-debt or a creditor with a decree for sale. The mortgagor himself cannot acquire it, so the answer is "The mortgagor"; a co-mortgagor is treated separately under the section.
