Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

Section 105 of the Transfer of Property Act defines a lease of immovable property as a transfer of a "right to enjoy" the property, made for a certain time or in perpetuity, in consideration of a price paid or promised or of money or other thing of value rendered periodically or on specified occasions.

A lease does not transfer title, and the statutory definition speaks of a right to enjoy rather than an interest to enjoy.
