1 August 1882
1 July 1882
1 September 1882
1 October 1882

Correct answer: B - 1 July 1882
Section 1 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 (Act 4 of 1882) provides that the Act “shall come into force on the first day of July, 1882”. The Act was passed earlier in 1882, so its commencement date differs from its date of enactment.
