Civil Law – Partition – Relinquishment Deed – Validity – Fraud or Misrepresentation – Burden of Proof – The plaintiff sought partition of suit schedule properties claiming them to be joint family properties and alleging that the registered relinquishment deed executed in favour of the 1st defendant (father) was obtained by fraud and misrepresentation. – Evidence showed that the 1st defendant, being an RMP doctor, purchased the properties out of his independent income. No proof was produced to establish that the properties were ancestral or that the relinquishment deed was obtained by fraud. – The document was a registered relinquishment deed, executed voluntarily before the Sub-Registrar, bearing the admitted signatures of the executants and carrying the presumption of due execution. – Plaintiff’s long silence and absence of any complaint after execution of the deed further weakened the allegation of fraud. → Held: The relinquishment deed was true, valid, and binding on the plaintiff. Will – Revocation – Effect of Cancellation During Testator’s Lifetime – The plaintiff relied on a Will dated 08.10.1985 said to have been executed by the 1st defendant. – The 1st defendant subsequently executed a registered cancellation deed and issued notice to the plaintiff informing revocation. → Held: Once a Will is cancelled during the lifetime of the testator, no right can accrue to any beneficiary under it. The plaintiff cannot claim any right based on the revoked Will.

The appreciation of evidence and application of law were correct. → Held: Properties are self-acquired of the 1st defendant. Relinquishment deed dated 19.09.1985 is valid and binding.

Civil Law – Partition – Relinquishment Deed – Validity – Fraud or Misrepresentation – Burden of Proof
– The plaintiff sought partition of suit schedule properties claiming them to be joint family properties and alleging that the registered relinquishment deed executed in favour of the 1st defendant (father) was obtained by fraud and misrepresentation.
– Evidence showed that the 1st defendant, being an RMP doctor, purchased the properties out of his independent income. No proof was produced to establish that the properties were ancestral or that the relinquishment deed was obtained by fraud.
– The document was a registered relinquishment deed, executed voluntarily before the Sub-Registrar, bearing the admitted signatures of the executants and carrying the presumption of due execution.
– Plaintiff’s long silence and absence of any complaint after execution of the deed further weakened the allegation of fraud.
Held: The relinquishment deed was true, valid, and binding on the plaintiff.

Will – Revocation – Effect of Cancellation During Testator’s Lifetime
– The plaintiff relied on a Will dated 08.10.1985 said to have been executed by the 1st defendant.
– The 1st defendant subsequently executed a registered cancellation deed and issued notice to the plaintiff informing revocation.
Held: Once a Will is cancelled during the lifetime of the testator, no right can accrue to any beneficiary under it. The plaintiff cannot claim any right based on the revoked Will.

Evidence – Oral Testimony – Weight and Reliability
– Plaintiff’s witness (P.W.4) admitted he was not a party to the transaction and unaware of the document’s contents. His evidence was found unreliable and insufficient to prove fraud or coercion.

Self-acquired Property – Presumption and Proof

Held:

  • Properties are self-acquired of the 1st defendant.

  • Relinquishment deed dated 19.09.1985 is valid and binding.

  • Will dated 08.10.1985 stands validly revoked.

  • Plaintiff not entitled to partition or cancellation of relinquishment deed.

  • Appeal dismissed. No costs.

RATIO DECIDENDI

  1. Validity of Relinquishment Deed:
    When a registered relinquishment deed is executed voluntarily by the executants before a competent registering authority, acknowledging receipt of consideration, and bearing their admitted signatures, there arises a presumption of due execution and voluntariness. The burden lies on the person alleging fraud, coercion, or misrepresentation to prove the same by cogent evidence. Mere oral assertions or long silence after execution are insufficient to rebut the statutory presumption of validity.

    Therefore, a registered relinquishment deed, duly executed and registered, cannot be set aside on mere allegations of fraud without convincing proof.

  1. Nature of Property – Self-acquired vs. Joint Family:
    When the father or Karta of a Hindu family is shown to have had an independent source of income and has acquired property in his own name, the property is presumed to be self-acquired, unless it is affirmatively proved that the acquisition was made from joint family nucleus or ancestral funds.

    Hence, in the absence of proof of joint family nucleus, property acquired by a father from his independent earnings is his self-acquired property, and sons have no coparcenary right therein during his lifetime.

  1. Effect of Revocation of Will:
    A Will, being revocable at any time during the lifetime of the testator, confers no vested right upon the beneficiary until the testator’s death. Once the testator executes a registered cancellation deed revoking the Will, the same ceases to have any legal effect.

    Thus, a beneficiary under a revoked Will cannot claim any right or title based thereon.

  2. Appellate Interference:
    An appellate court will not interfere with the findings of fact recorded by the trial court unless such findings are shown to be perverse, based on no evidence, or contrary to settled legal principles.

    In the absence of perversity or illegality in appreciation of evidence, the appellate court is bound to uphold the trial court’s judgment.

The Court made the following:

JUDGMENT: -

This Appeal, under Section 96 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908

[hereinafter referred to as “C.P.C.”], is filed by the Appellant challenging the

decree and judgment, dated 29.08.2002 in O.S.No.85 of 1999 passed by

learned Senior Civil Judge, Punganur [hereinafter referred to as “the trial

Court”].

2. The appellant herein is the plaintiff and the respondents 1 to 8 herein

are the defendants in O.S.No.85 of 1999. During the pendency of the appeal,

the respondents 9 to 11 were brought on record as legal representatives of

deceased respondent No.6 and 12th respondent was brought on record as

legal representative of deceased respondent No.2. The appeal against the 1st

respondent was dismissed for default as per the Court order dated

25.04.2016.

3. The appellant / plaintiff filed the suit for partition of the plaint schedule

properties into eight equal shares and allot 1/8th share to the plaintiff by

2025:APHC:44397

division by metes and bounds and by setting aside the relinquishment deed

dated 19.09.1985 in respect of the plaintiff‟s share or in the alternative to allot

the properties as per the Will dated 08.10.1985 to the plaintiff and for costs of

the suit.

4. Both the parties in the Appeal will be referred to as they are arrayed

before the trial Court.

5. The brief averments of the plaint in O.S.No.85 of 1999 are as under:

(i) The plaintiff and 2nd defendant are brothers and they are the sons

of 1st defendant. The defendants 3 to 7 are the sisters of plaintiff.

The 8th defendant is the kept mistress of 1st defendant. The

plaintiff himself, D-1 and D-2 constitute a Hindu joint family, for

which 1

st defendant has been acting as 'Kartha' and Manager of

the family. Their family originally belonged to 'Kunnam Kulam'

Kerala State and they have came down to Punganur about 35

years back. According to the plaintiff, the plaint schedule

properties belonged to his mother 'Ammu Ammaniyamma‟ and

she died about fourteen years back leaving behind the plaintiff

and defendants 1 to 7 as her legal heirs. After demise of his

mother, he himself and D-1 to D-7 inherited the properties

through his deceased mother.

(ii) The plaintiff got married, after the demise of his mother against

the wish of his father (D-1). The 1st defendant started disliking

him. All the children of D-1 were married except D-4 and after the

marriages of the children, some misunderstandings arose among

the woman folk. On account of misunderstandings, the 1st

defendant filed a civil suit in O.S.No.111 of 1985 on the file of the

Subordinate Judge Court, Madanapalle for grant of injunction in

respect of item Nos.2 and 3 of the plaint schedule with false

allegations. But, subsequently, the well-wishers and elders of the

2025:APHC:44397

locality compromised the matter and settled that the 1st defendant

must made equal distribution of the properties to his male

children and they should take the burden of performing the

marriage of 4th defendant as the other daughters had already

married and the children of D-1 including plaintiff should

relinquish their right in the plaint schedule properties in favour of

their father and in turn D-1 should bequeath the properties in

favour of the plaintiff and 2nd defendant with an obligation to

celebrate the marriages of the 4th defendant. As per the advice of

elders, the plaintiff along with D-2 to D-7 executed the registered

Relinquishment Deed in favour of 1st defendant on 19-9-1985 in

respect of plaint schedule property and 1st defendant executed

registered Will dated 08.10.1985 bequeathing the properties

shown in the plaint to the plaintiff and 2nd defendant. After

compromise, the parties i.e., the plaintiff and D-2 to D-7 lived

happily without any misunderstandings.

(iii) While so, the 1st defendant at the instance of 8th defendant and

6

th defendant, who are very much attached to 1st defendant, got

issued a notice on 07.03.1988 to the plaintiff stating that he has

cancelled the Will and that he would deal with the plaint schedule

properties as he likes, thereby the 1st defendant played fraud

upon the plaintiff. Therefore, the plaintiff filed the suit for setting

aside the relinquishment deed dated 19.09.1985 and for partition

of his legitimate 1/8th share in all the plaint schedule properties or

in the alternative to allot the properties if possible as per the Will

dated 08.10.1985

6. Defendants 3, 5 and 6 remained set ex parte.

The 1st defendant filed written statement, which was adopted by the

defendants 2 and 4.

The 7th defendant filed memo stating that she has no written statement

and prayed to decree the suit.

2025:APHC:44397

The brief averments in the written statement filed by the 1st defendant

are as follows:

(i) The suit filed by the plaintiff is not maintainable either in law or on

facts. The defendant No.1 admitted the relationship pleaded by

the plaintiff in the plaint. The defendant No.1 denied that 8

th

defendant is his kept mistress. Defendant No.1 also denied the

contention of the plaintiff that the plaintiff, D-1 and D-2 have

constituted Hindu joint family and D-1 is the Manager. The

Defendant No.1 admitted that the plaintiff married after the death

of his mother. D-1 never objected nor expressed any displeasure

against the plaintiff marrying a woman of his choice. According to

D-1, the plaintiff has been disobedient and has been leading a

wayward life from the beginning and he was not regular and

steady in his stay with the parents. He has been living with his

wife from the time of his marriage and he has been visiting 1st

defendant's House whenever he wanted money and when the 1st

defendant refused to oblige him, he has been behaving

aggressively and indecently towards the 1st defendant. The

plaintiff abused in vulgar language and attempting to assault him.

(ii) The 1st defendant has tolerated the bad behaviour of the plaintiff

out of love and affection, but as the conduct the plaintiff turned

violent and became unbearable, the 1

st defendant given a

complaint to the police and 1st defendant was also constrained to

submit a protection petition in the month of February, 1988 to the

Superintendent of Police, Chittoor seeking the help from the

police as the 1

st defendant apprehended danger from the plaintiff.

Subsequently, the plaintiff has been coming to the house of the

1

st defendant and has been creating scenes by exhibiting

indecent behaviour and by intimidating the 1st defendant and the

4

th defendant, who is unmarried by threats of violence before and

after filing of the suit.

2025:APHC:44397

(iii) According to D-1, there are no properties belonged to the alleged

joint family and the properties mentioned in item Nos.1 to 3 of

plaint A-Schedule are acquired by him by his independent and

self exertions and none of his children including the plaintiff had

any right in them. According to D-1, the execution of

relinquishment deed, dated 19.09.1985 by the plaintiff and D-2 to

D-7 and execution of registered Will by him dated 08.10.1985

have nothing to do with the alleged compromise. According to D-1,

the execution of the said relinquishment deed by the plaintiff and

D-2 to D-7 was voluntary act. Similarly, the 1st defendant

executed the said Will voluntarily. He purchased the site

comprising item No.2 of the plaint A-schedule for consideration of

Rs.1,000/- under a registered sale deed with his own money. He

executed a registered Gift deed dated 19.06.1958 in favour of his

wife 'Ammu Ammal' nominally. Ever since the purchase, he was

in possession of the said site and never parted with the same at

any time. The gift deed executed by him in favour of his wife,

neither intended to be acted upon nor acted upon. His wife never

in possession of the property mentioned in the Gift Deed dated

19.06.1958. His wife came from poor family and she had no

support from her parents side and she was not in a position to

have any construction. She had no capacity to contribute any

money independently for the acquisition of any property.

(iv) The 1st defendant offered all the three items of the plaint „A‟

schedule to the Indian Bank, Punganur as collateral security, as

guarantor for the loan advanced to the plaintiff for purchase of

lorry. The 2nd defendant has been living in item No.1 of the plaint

„A‟ schedule since the time of its construction. The 2nd defendant

married one Vasanthi in the year 1976 and continued to live in the

said house with his wife and children. The 2nd defendant‟s wife‟s

2025:APHC:44397

two sisters namely Shobana and Ananda Kumari have been living

at Dubai. Therefore, sought for dismissal of the suit.

7. The 8th defendant also filed written statement with the following

contentions:

The suit filed by the plaintiff is not maintainable either in law or on facts.

The 8th defendant has no concern with the alleged joint family of the plaintiff

and other defendants. She is interested in item No.4 of the plaint schedule

property. She purchased the site of item No.4 of the plaint schedule under

registered sale deed dated 11.09.1981. Later she got constructed a house in

the said site in the year 1983 after getting plan approved from the Gram

Panchayat, Punganur and ever since she has been in possession of the same

and paying cist to the Punganur Gram Panchayat, previously and later she is

paying to Punganur Municipality. According to D-8, the plaintiff or other

Defendants have no right whatsoever over item No.4 of the plaint schedule

property. Hence, sought for dismissal of the suit.

8. Based on the above pleadings, the trial Court framed the following

issues:

(1) Whether the plaintiff and D-1 and D-2 constitute joint family and

whether the plaintiff is in joint possession of the suit properties along

with D-1 and D-2?

(2) Whether the judgment in O.S.111/85 on the file of this Court would

not bind the plaintiff?

(3) Whether item No.4 exclusively belong to the 8th defendant?

(4) Whether the institution of the joint family is unknown among the

Caste of the parties?

(5) Whether item No.1 to 3 of plaint A-schedule are the self acquisition

of 1st defendant?

(6) Whether the relinquishment deed dated 19.09.1985 and the Will

deed dated 08.10.1985 are true, valid and if so whether would they

effect the rights of D-1 over item No.1 to 3 herein?

(7) Whether item No.1, 23 to 28, 31, 34, 40to 46, 48, 49, 51, 52, 54 to

56 of Commissioner‟s Report in course of inventory of item No.1 of

2025:APHC:44397

plaint A-schedule belong to the wife of D-2 by name Vasanthi and

the other items as mentioned in para 17 of the written statement of

D-1 belong to the persons mentioned therein which were invented by

the Commissioner so also in para 18 and 19 of the written statement

of D-1?

(8) Whether the plaintiff is entitled to partition if so to what share?

(9) To what relief?

9. During the course of trial in the trial Court, on behalf of the plaintiff,

P.Ws.1 to 6 were examined and Exs.A.1 to A.11 and Exs.X.1 and X.2 were

marked. On behalf of the defendants, D.Ws.1 to 5 were examined and

Exs.B.1 to B.10 were marked.

10. After completion of the trial and hearing the arguments of both

sides, the trial Court dismissed the suit vide its judgment, dated 29.08.2002,

against which the present appeal is preferred by the plaintiff in the suit

questioning the decree and judgment passed by the trial Court.

11. Heard Sri V.R.Reddy Kovvuri, learned counsel for the appellant and

Sri P.V.Venkata Ravi Sankar and Dr.P.B.Reddy, learned counsel for the

respondents.

12. Learned counsel for the appellant would contend that the decree

and judgment passed by the trial Court is contrary to law, weight of evidence

and probabilities of the case. He would further contend that on the advice of

elders, the plaintiff, his brother and sisters executed a relinquishment deed in

favour of their father 1st defendant and subsequently the 1st defendant failed to

fulfill his promise and cancelled the Will said to have been executed by the 1st

defendant and that the relinquishment deed is liable to be cancelled and the

relinquishment deed is obtained by father by playing fraud and

misrepresentation and that the same has to be cancelled. Learned counsel

for the appellant would further contend that the reasons given by the trial

Court for dismissing the suit are unsustainable and that the appeal may be

2025:APHC:44397

allowed by setting aside the decree and judgment passed by the learned trial

Judge.

13. Per contra, learned counsel for the respondents would contend that

on appreciation of the entire evidence on record, learned trial Judge rightly

dismissed the suit and that there is no need to interfere with the said finding

given by the learned trial Judge.

14. Now the points for determination in the present appeal are:

1) Whether item No.4 of plaint A-schedule property exclusively

belongs to 8th defendant?

2) Whether Ex.A.1 registered relinquishment deed is liable to be

cancelled and whether the plaintiff is entitled the relief of

partition of the plaint schedule property?

3) Whether the trial Court is justified in dismissing the suit?

15. Point No.1:

Whether item No.4 of plaint A-schedule property exclusively

belongs to 8th defendant?

It is the specific case of the plaintiff that item No.4 of the plaint Aschedule property is joint family property and it was purchased by the 1st

defendant in the name of 8th defendant and the 1st defendant is having illegal

contact with the 8th defendant and 8th defendant is the concubine of the 1st

defendant. The own brother / 2nd defendant and sisters of the plaintiff /

defendants 3 to 7 strongly disputed the aforesaid contention taken by the

plaintiff and they contended that they are no way connected with item No.4 of

plaint A-schedule property and they denied the statement of the plaintiff that

the 1st defendant is having illegal contact with the 8th defendant. The

undisputed facts of both the parties are the plaintiff and 2nd defendant are

sons and the defendants 3 to 7 are daughters. According to the defendants 1

to 7, item No.4 is the exclusive property of 8th defendant and they are no way

concerned with item No.4 of the plaint A-schedule property. The 8th defendant

2025:APHC:44397

was examined as D.W.5 before the trial Court. As per the evidence of

D.W.5/8th defendant, item No.4 of the plaint A-schedule property is her self

acquired property and she purchased the same under a registered sale deed

after paying sale consideration under original of Ex.A5 registered sale deed

and he was present at the time of registration of the sale deed and her

husband is working as a Painter and his second so is a RMP Doctor and she

is residing along with her husband and children and she is unconnected with

the family affairs of the 1st defendant. As stated supra, the defendants 1 to 7

i.e., father, own brother and sisters of the plaintiff are not even supports the

case of the plaintiff to prove that item No.4 of the schedule property is

purchased by the 1st defendant in the name of 8th defendant. The plaintiff has

taken a specific plea that item No.4 of the plaint A-schedule property was

purchased by his father in the name of 8th defendant. Therefore, the initial

burden is on the plaintiff to prove the same. But undoubtedly, the plaintiff

failed to prove the same. The own brother and sisters of the plaintiff are also

not supporting the case of the plaintiff and the plaintiff failed to discharge his

burden to prove that item No.4 of the plaint A-schedule property was

purchased by the 1st defendant in the name of 8th defendant. On the other

hand, the 8th defendant proved that item No.4 of the plaint A-schedule

property is her self acquired property. Therefore, the plaintiff is not entitled the

relief of partition in item No.4 of the plaint A-schedule property. Accordingly,

point No.1 is answered against the appellant / plaintiff.

16. Point No.2:

Whether Ex.A.1 registered relinquishment deed is liable to be

cancelled and whether the plaintiff is entitled the relief of

partition of the plaint schedule property?

It is the specific case of the appellant / plaintiff that item Nos.1 to 3 of

the plaint A-schedule properties are exclusive properties of her mother by

name “Ammu Ammaniyamma” and she got the same through her parents at

Kerala and she sold the property which was got from her parents and with the

2025:APHC:44397

sale proceeds, she purchased item Nos.1 to 3 of the plaint A-schedule

property. The plaintiff approached the civil Court for seeking the relief of

partition of plaint schedule properties. Therefore, the initial burden is on the

plaintiff to prove the same.

17. As seen from the material on record, item No.1 of the plaint Aschedule property is situated at Kerala. The specific case of the 2nd

defendant, which is supported by the 1st defendant is that in item No.2 of the

plaint schedule property, the 2nd defendant is living with his wife and children.

The same is undisputed by the plaintiff. As seen from the material on record,

item No.1 of the plaint A-schedule property is situated at Kerala and item

Nos.2 and 3 of the plaint A-schedule property are situated at Punganur town.

It is the specific case of the plaintiff that all the schedule properties are

exclusively belongs to his mother and she purchased the said property with

the sale proceeds of the property which was given by her parents and she

died at about 14 years ago leaving behind the plaintiff and defendants 1 to 7

as her legal heirs and after the death of mother of the plaintiff, they inherited

the properties. It is undisputed that the mother of the plaintiff and defendants

2 to 7 died intestate. It is the specific case of the 1st defendant that all the

schedule properties i.e. item Nos.1 to 3 are his self acquired properties and he

has every right to deal with the said properties. He further contended that in

view of the relinquishment deed executed by defendants 2 to 7 and plaintiff in

his favour in respect of the suit properties, he is having absolute rights in the

suit property and the Will executed by him dated 08.10.1985 is validly

cancelled by the registered revocation deed and the same is informed to the

plaintiff by issuing a legal notice under Ex.A.2. The 1st defendant further

contended that subsequent to the cancellation of the Will, item No.1 of the

schedule property was given to the 2nd defendant and item No.2 was given to

the 4th defendant and he retained item No.3 of the plaint schedule property. It

is the specific case of the 1st defendant that he is no way connected with item

2025:APHC:44397

No.4 of plaint A-schedule property and he is not having any relationship with

the 8th defendant as alleged by the plaintiff.

18. It is in the evidence of plaintiff / P.W.1 that with the sale proceeds of

his mother‟s property, which was got from her parents at Kerala, they

purchased the suit property and he came to know the same through his

mother. As seen from his own evidence, it is evident that the plaintiff is not

having personal knowledge over the same. The own witnesses of the plaintiff,

P.Ws.2 to 5 have not stated in their evidence that with the sale proceeds of

property of wife of 1st defendant which was got from her parents, the 1st

defendant purchased the schedule properties. In his evidence in crossexamination, P.W.6 admits that the 1st defendant is well known RMP Doctor in

Punganur town and the residential house of 1st defendant was got constructed

prior to age of his discretion and hospital building was constructed by the 1st

defendant more than 30 years ago. He further admits he does not know the

details with regard to the partition between mother of the plaintiff, his brothers

and sisters. Therefore, it is evident that he is not having very much

knowledge about the properties possessed by the mother of the P.W.1.

P.W.2 is a Senior Assistant in Sub-Registrar office. He is no way connected

with the family affairs of the plaintiff. P.Ws.3 and 4 have not deposed in their

evidence that with the sale proceeds of property of mother of the plaintiff,

which was got from her parents, the 1st defendant purchased the schedule

properties. P.W.6 is no way connected with the family affairs of the plaintiff.

He is a Senior Assistant in Sub-Registrar office.

19. The 1st defendant is examined as D.W.1. It is in the evidence of 1st

defendant / D.W.1 that the parents of his wife are agricultural coolies and his

in-laws have no financial capacity to help him and also his wife. It is in the

evidence of D.W.2 / 2nd defendant that item No.1 of the schedule property was

purchased in the name of his mother and the 1st defendant himself got

constructed the house with his own amount and the 1st defendant spent the

amount and he got constructed the same in the item Nos.1 to 3 of plaint A2025:APHC:44397

schedule property. The house site was purchased by the 1st defendant in the

name of his mother and subsequently, the 1st defendant constructed the

house with his own amount. He further deposed that item No.4 of A-schedule

property does not belongs to their family and the 1st defendant used to run

hotel business at Punganur and subsequently he practiced as a medical

practitioner at Punganur and he is a well known medical practitioner and he

used to earn good income in the medical profession and with that income, he

purchased the sites in the name of his mother and constructed houses at

Punganur and Kerala. He further deposed that his parents are very poor and

they are living by doing cooli work. D.W.3 deposed in his evidence that the 1st

defendant is his brother-in-law, neither himself nor his brothers or his father

never helped the 1st defendant financially in purchasing the house sites and

construction of houses in Punganur town and also at Kerala. He further

deposed that the 1st defendant initially started hotel business and

subsequently he started medical practice and in the medical practice, the 1st

defendant earned good income and with the said income, the 1st defendant

purchased the said house sites and constructed the houses. D.W.4 deposed

in his evidence that the 1st defendant came to Punganur and started business

and subsequently, he entered into the hotel business and he started medical

practice in Punganur town and he used to earn good income in the medical

practice. Even as per the own witness of the plaintiff / P.W.4, the 1st

defendant is practicing as a RMP Doctor in Punganur town and P.W.4 used to

take treatment with the 1st defendant and the 1st defendant constructed

houses in Punganur town. Another own witness of the plaintiff / P.W.5 admits

the 1st defendant is a well known RMP Doctor in Punganur and the residential

house of 1st defendant was got constructed prior to age of his discretion and

hospital building was constructed by the 1st defendant for more than 30 years

ago.

20. As per the evidence of D.W.1, at about 12 years ago, he got

purchased the lorry for the sake of the plaintiff for his livelihood. The same is

2025:APHC:44397

undisputed by the plaintiff. The plaintiff also admits that his father purchased

the lorry. D.W.1 further deposed that he purchased the lorry by obtaining loan

from the Indian Bank, Punganur branch. D.W.1 further deposed that P.W.1

did not discharge the said bank loan and he repaid the due amount in the said

loan account. The plaintiff admitted in his evidence in cross-examination that

he married the daughter of their maidservant without the consent and

permission of his father. He further admits that the 1st defendant stood as a

surety for the loan borrowed from the bank for purchase of lorry and the said

loan is still due to the bank. He further admits the 2nd defendant acquired

some more properties with his own income in Kerala.

21. The material on record reveals that the mother of the plaintiff and

defendants 2 to 7 is not an employee and she is not an earning member in the

family. Moreover, there is no evidence on record to show that the mother of

the plaintiff / wife of 1st defendant got the property from her parents. There is

also no evidence on record that with the sale proceeds of the said property,

the 1st defendant purchased item Nos.1 to 3 of the plaint A-schedule property.

Even as per the evidence of own witness of the plaintiff, the 1st defendant

used to work as a registered medical practitioner and he himself constructed a

house property at Punganur town and also at Kerala. The own brother / 2nd

defendant and sisters of the plaintiff are not even supporting the case of the

plaintiff. Moreover, the plaintiff approached the Court for seeking the relief of

partition of the plaint schedule property, with a specific plea that with the sale

proceeds of property of their mother / wife of the 1st defendant, they

purchased item Nos.1 to 3 of A-schedule property. But the same is not

proved by the plaintiff. The plaintiff not even examined the single relative of

the mother of the plaintiff or brothers and parents of the mother of the plaintiff.

For the aforesaid reasons, I am of the considered view that the plaintiff failed

to prove that item Nos.1 to 3 of the A-schedule properties are purchased with

the sale proceeds of the property of the mother of the plaintiff, which was got

from her parents.

2025:APHC:44397

22. It is the specific case of the plaintiff and the plaintiff also deposed in

his evidence that after the death of his mother, his father filed O.S.No.111 of

1985 on the file of the Senior Civil Judge‟s Court at Madanapalle against them

in respect of the suit property for injunction. But he admits in his evidence in

cross-examination that he is not a party to the suit O.S.No.111 of 1985. It is

the specific case of the plaintiff that at the intervention of the elders, his father

agreed to withdraw the said suit and agreed to convey the suit properties to

them and the village elders advised his father to execute a document in favour

of their father and their father agreed to execute a Will in their favour. He

further pleaded in pursuance of the said mediation, his father not-pressed the

suit O.S.No.111 of 1985 and all of them executed a relinquishment deed

under original of Ex.A.1 dated 19.09.1985. The plaintiff himself admitted in his

evidence in cross-examination itself that he was not a party in the suit filed by

his father vide O.S.No.111 of 1985 and he does not know against whom his

father filed a civil suit O.S.No.111 of 1985.

23. It is in the evidence of plaintiff that after filing of suit against him and

others vide O.S.No.111 of 1985 in respect of the suit property for injunction, at

the intervention of elders, a compromise has taken place and in pursuance of

the said compromise, the plaintiff and defendants 2 to 7 executed a registered

relinquishment deed by relinquishing their rights in the schedule property and

their father assured that he will give property to all the children by way of Will

and consequently the alleged Will dated 08.10.1985 was executed by his

father bequeathing item No.2 of the plaint schedule property to plaintiff and

item No.1 to 2nd defendant and item No.3 was given to defendants 3 to 7. The

plaintiff further pleaded that subsequently, the said Will was cancelled and he

further contend that by way of misrepresentation and fraud, his father obtained

a registered relinquishment deed. The execution of registered relinquishment

deed under original of Ex.A.1 dated 19.09.1985 is undisputed by the plaintiff

and defendants 2 to 7. The plaintiff approached the civil Court for seeking the

relief of partition of plaint schedule property by setting aside the registered

2025:APHC:44397

relinquishment deed said to have been executed by the plaintiff along with his

brother and sisters dated 19.09.1985. Moreover, the own brother and own

sisters of the plaintiff i.e. defendants 2 to 7 are not even supporting the case of

the plaintiff. It is not their specific case that their father obtained a registered

relinquishment deed by way of fraudulently and misrepresentation. Therefore,

it is for the plaintiff to prove that in pursuance of the compromise of

O.S.No.111 of 1985 which was filed by the 1st defendant, he executed a

registered relinquishment deed in favour of the 1st defendant along with

defendants 2 to 7. The initial burden is on the plaintiff to prove that original of

Ex.A.1 i.e. Ex.B.7 registered relinquishment deed was obtained by the 1st

defendant from himself and defendants 2 to 7 by way of misrepresentation

and fraudulently.

24. To discharge his burden, the plaintiff relied on the evidence of

P.Ws.2 to 5. P.W.2 is a Senior Assistant in Sub-Registrar Office, Punganur.

P.W.3 is one B.Ramesh Babu, who is a resident of Punganur. As per the

evidence of P.W.3, a Panchayat was taken place in the house of Ex-Village

Munsif, in respect of property of 1st defendant. In the said Panchayat, the

elders allotted the house property to the plaintiff, the 1st defendant agreed that

he will execute a Will deed after execution of the relinquishment deed by the

plaintiff and his daughters and son and in pursuance of the same, the

relinquishment deed was executed and at the time of execution of Ex.A.1, the

1

st defendant did not pay any amount to his children. But in his evidence in

cross-examination, he admits that he is none other than the husband of 6th

defendant. Admittedly, the 6th defendant is remained set ex parte. In crossexamination, he admits that he separated from his family after marrying 6th

defendant and he does not know the details and financial status of the plaintiff

and sisters-in-law. He further admits that Ex.A.1 shows the 1st defendant paid

Rs.40,000/- consideration to the executants and he know the 1st defendant

since his age of discretion and in his childhood itself, the 1st defendant was a

famous Doctor in Punganur town. He further admits that as per Ex.A.1, the

2025:APHC:44397

plaintiff and defendants 2 to 7 have no right in the properties of the 1st

defendant. As seen from the evidence of P.W.3, though he stated in his

evidence in chief examination that nothing was paid by the 1st defendant, but

he admits Ex.A.1 document itself reveals that the 1st defendant paid

Rs.40,000/- consideration to the executants of the document and as per

Ex.A.1, the plaintiff and defendants 2 to 7 have no rights in the properties of

the 1st defendant. As per the evidence of P.W.5, one Rajendra is another

attestor to the alleged relinquishment deed. But the said Rajendra is not

examined by the plaintiff.

25. P.W.4 deposed in his evidence that he went to Village Munsif for

obtaining certification of his son and he noticed there was a conversation with

regard to the properties of 1st defendant and the daughters and son of 1st

defendant executed an agreement in favour of Ranga Reddy Ex-Village

Munsif. His evidence is not even supporting the case of the plaintiff. The

names of P.Ws.3 and 4 are not even referred in the plaint. In the plaint, there

is no whisper that P.Ws.3 and 4 are acted as elders in the mediation. There is

no whisper in the evidence of P.Ws.3 and 4 that in pursuance of the

compromise, the suit filed by the 1st defendant vide O.S.No.111 of 1985 was

not-pressed by the 1st defendant and in pursuance of the said settlement, the

plaintiff and defendants 2 to 7 executed a registered relinquishment deed in

favour of the 1st defendant. No evidence is produced by the plaintiff to show

that original of Ex.A.1 i.e. equivalent to Ex.B.7 is obtained by way of

fraudulently and undue influence. The other executants of the document

Ex.A.1 i.e. own brother and sisters of the plaintiff are not even supporting that

the registered relinquishment deed is obtained by their father by playing fraud

and undue influence. Ex.A.1 relinquishment deed is undisputed by both the

parties. There is no whisper in the registered relinquishment deed that in

pursuance of the mediation held by the elders, the 1st defendant agreed to

give the properties by executing a Will subsequent to the execution of the

relinquishment deed by the plaintiff, his brother and sisters.

2025:APHC:44397

26. It is pleaded by the plaintiff that the suit for permanent injunction

was filed by the plaintiff against him and others and in pursuance of the said

suit, a compromise was taken place. But as per the own admissions of the

plaintiff, the said suit is not filed against him and he is not even a party to the

said suit. In the cross-examination, the plaintiff himself admitted that a suit in

O.S.No.111 of 1985 is not filed against him. The certified copy of the

relinquishment deed is filed and marked as Ex.A.1. As seen from the recitals

of the registered relinquishment deed, there is no mention in Ex.A.1 about

filing of suit by the 1st defendant for permanent injunction and also in view of

the alleged compromise, the relinquishment deed was executed by the plaintiff

and defendants 2 to 7. The plaintiff admitted in his evidence in chief

examination itself that himself and defendants 2 to 7 executed a registered

relinquishment deed dated 19.09.1985 in favour of their father / 1st defendant.

He further admits, he executed Ex.A.1 registered relinquishment deed under

original of Ex.A.1, himself and defendants 2 to 7 relinquished their rights in the

plaint schedule property. He further admits under Ex.A.1, the plaintiff and

defendants 2 to 7 relinquished their rights in the properties of 1st defendant,

therefore, these properties are absolute properties of the 1st defendant. The

recitals of relinquishment deed goes to show that it was registered before the

Sub-Registrar and the plaintiff and defendants 2 to 7 relinquished their rights

in the plaint schedule joint family property by receiving amount of Rs.40,000/-

from the 1st defendant. The same is admitted by the 2nd defendant. But the

plaintiff denied about receipt of amount of Rs.40,000/- from the 1st defendant.

But P.W.3, one of the attestor of relinquishment deed, admits that as per

Ex.A.1, the plaintiff and defendants 2 to 7 have no right in the property of 1st

defendant.

27. It is in the evidence of D.W.1 that when P.W.1 raised a dispute with

regard to the suit properties, he paid Rs.40,000/- in consideration of the

registered relinquishment deed said to have been executed by his sons and

daughters to avoid future litigation. He deposed that his sons and daughters

2025:APHC:44397

have no right and share in item Nos.1 to 3 of the schedule property and he is

no way concerned with item No.4 of the schedule property. The 2nd defendant

/ D.W.2, who is own brother of the plaintiff, deposed in his evidence that in the

year 1985, the plaintiff quarreled with the 1st defendant with regard to the

property. He along with the plaintiff and defendants 3 to 7 executed a

registered relinquishment deed in favour of the 1st defendant dated

19.09.1985 by receiving consideration of Rs.40,000/- and Ex.B.7 is the said

registered relinquishment deed. He further deposed under Ex.B.7, they

relinquished their rights with an understanding that the 1st defendant is at

liberty to enjoy the property as he likes. He further deposed that even prior to

Ex.B.7, they have no right and share in the property since the said properties

are self acquired properties of 1st defendant.

28. The execution of registered relinquishment deed is undisputed by

the plaintiff and defendants 2 to 7. The plaintiff himself specifically admits that

he along with defendants 2 to 7 executed a registered relinquishment deed

dated 19.09.1985 in favour of the 1st defendant. The recitals of Ex.A.1 goes to

show that after receipt of Rs.40,000/- amount from the 1st defendant, the

plaintiff and defendants 2 to 7 relinquished their rights in the joint family

property by giving absolute rights to 1st defendant to deal with the suit

properties. The execution of original of Ex.A.1 registered relinquishment deed

is undisputed by either the plaintiff or the defendants 2 to 7. Furthermore, the

own brother of the plaintiff i.e. the 2nd defendant supported the recitals of

Ex.A.1 relinquishment deed. The recitals in registered relinquishment deed is

undisputed by the defendants 2 to 7, who are the executants to the

relinquishment deed.

29. Learned counsel for the appellant would contend that in Ex.A.1

itself, it was recited the schedule properties are the joint family properties. As

seen from the registered relinquishment deed, the plaintiff, his brother and all

sisters relinquished their share in the plaint schedule property. Now, the

plaintiff cannot seek partition of the plaint schedule property against him father

2025:APHC:44397

and it is the absolute property of his father. On the other hand, the plaintiff

failed to prove that with the sale proceeds received by his mother by way of

sale of property, which was got from her parents, they purchased item Nos.1

to 3 of plaint A-schedule properties. The defendants 2 to 7 are own brother

and sisters of the plaintiff. Neither the brother of the plaintiff nor the sisters of

the plaintiff i.e. defendants 2 to 7 supports the plaintiff that the suit properties

are purchased with the sale proceeds of the property inherited from the

parents of their mother. The plaintiff did not even choose to examine the

parents of her mother or any relative of his mother to prove the same.

30. The original of Ex.A.1 registered relinquishment deed i.e. equivalent

to Ex.B.7 registered relinquishment deed is undisputed by both the parties.

As per the own case of the plaintiff, he executed a registered relinquishment

deed along with his brother and sisters. The recitals in Ex.A.1 goes to show

that after receipt of Rs.40,000/- amount from the 1st defendant, the plaintiff

and defendants 2 to 7 have relinquished their rights in the schedule

properties. There is no dispute about execution of Ex.A.1 by the plaintiff and

defendants 2 to 7. The 2nd defendant, who is none other than the own brother

of the plaintiff pleaded in his written statement and also in the evidence that

they received Rs.40,000/- amount and relinquished their rights in the schedule

property. The defendants 2 to 7 are not even supporting the plaintiff. The

plaintiff did not choose to summon the defendants 3, 5 and 6 to prove his

case, who remained set ex parte and he failed to prove that the contents in

Ex.A.1 are incorrect. It is admitted case of both the parties that the registered

relinquishment deed is executed by the plaintiff and defendants 2 to 7 by

relinquishing their rights in the plaint schedule property. As on the date of

filing of the suit, the registered relinquishment deed is in force. Unless the

said registered relinquishment deed is set aside, the plaintiff is not entitled to

file a suit for partition. The primary relief sought by the plaintiff in the present

suit is for partition of the suit schedule property. Unless the plaintiff proved the

alleged fraud and misrepresentation played by the 1st defendant in obtaining

2025:APHC:44397

the registered relinquishment deed, the plaintiff is not entitled to maintain a

suit for partition of the plaint schedule property. Therefore, the plaintiff is not

entitled the relief of partition of the plaint schedule property. The plaintiff

herein filed the suit for partition of the schedule properties against his father,

his brother and sisters. As long as the registered relinquishment deed is holds

good, the plaintiff is not entitled to seek partition of the plaint schedule

property.

31. As stated supra, the plaintiff failed to prove that the Ex.A.1 original

registered relinquishment deed is obtained by his father by way of fraudulently

and misrepresentation. As noticed supra, the plaintiff is not even entitled the

relief of cancellation of registered relinquishment deed. Unless the registered

relinquishment deed said to have been executed by the plaintiff and

defendants 2 to 7 is cancelled, the plaintiff is not entitled for partition of item

Nos.1 to 3 of the schedule properties.

32. It is the specific case of the plaintiff that the 1st defendant, who

executed a Will dated 08.10.1985 was subsequently cancelled by executing a

registered cancellation deed dated 20.07.1998 and also intimated the same

under Ex.A.2 legal notice. As seen from the recitals of the Will deed dated

08.10.1985, the testator / 1st defendant reserved his right during his lifetime to

cancel the Will or to revoke the Will. P.W.2 is a Senior Assistant in SubRegistrar Office. As per his evidence, the 1st defendant cancelled the Will

dated 08.10.1985 executed by him in favour of the plaintiff and defendants 2

to 7. Ex.X.1 is the registered cancellation deed, which was said to have been

executed on 27.02.1988. During the lifetime of the testator, the testator is

having every right to cancel or revoke the earlier Will. The registered Will

dated 08.10.1985 is executed by the 1st defendant during his lifetime by

reserving his rights to revoke or cancel the said Will. For the aforesaid

reasons, it is evident that the Will deed dated 08.10.1985 is subsequently

cancelled by the 1st defendant by way of executing a registered cancellation

deed dated 27.02.1988 and the same is also intimated to the plaintiff by way

2025:APHC:44397

of legal notice under Ex.A.2. For the aforesaid reasons, this Court held that

the plaintiff relinquished his rights in the plaint schedule property by executing

a registered relinquishment deed and the plaintiff also failed to prove the said

registered relinquishment deed is obtained by the 1st defendant by playing

fraud and misrepresentation. Unless and until the said registered

relinquishment deed is cancelled, the plaintiff is not entitled for partition of the

schedule properties. Furthermore, the existence of B-schedule movable

properties are not proved by the plaintiff. Therefore, the plaintiff is not entitled

for partition of the schedule properties and Ex.A.1 original registered

relinquishment deed is valid and the same is not liable to be cancelled and the

plaintiff is also not entitled for partition of the plaint schedule properties.

Accordingly, point No.2 is answered against the appellant / plaintiff.

33. Point No.3:

Whether the trial Court is justified in dismissing the suit?

In view of my findings on point Nos.1 and 2, the trial Court is justified in

dismissing the suit. Therefore, there is no need to interfere with the findings

given by the learned trial Judge in its judgment.

34. Resultantly, the Appeal Suit is dismissed. Each party do bear their

own costs in the appeal.

As a sequel, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in the Appeal shall

stand closed.
