In which of the following cases did the Supreme Court hold that the doctrine of a clog on the equity of redemption is a rule of justice, equity and good conscience?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Murarilal treated the rule against a clog on redemption as a principle of justice, equity and good conscience. It applied that principle although the Transfer of Property Act did not extend to Alwar when the mortgage was executed. A stipulation converting the mortgagee into owner merely because repayment was not made within the stated period could not defeat redemption.
