The doctrine of 'part performance' under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 does not apply to

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Section 53A applies only where a person contracts "to transfer for consideration any immovable property by writing signed by him or on his behalf". It therefore does not help under an oral contract, and it does not apply to standing timber or grass, which section 3 excludes from immovable property. All three cases fall outside the doctrine.
