You have to identify the particular Section of Transfer of Property Act to which the following quotation relates: "Where a granter has purported to grant an interest in land which he did not at the time possesses, but subsequently acquires, the benefit of his subsequent acquisition, goes automatically to the earlier grantee, or as it is usually expressed, feeds the estoppel."

Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

The doctrine of feeding the grant by estoppel, whereby a subsequently acquired interest passes automatically to the earlier grantee, is provided in Section 43 of the Transfer of Property Act, not in "Section 40", "Section 41" or "Section 42", so the answer is "None of the given options is correct".
