Anandrao Hindurao Mane vs Arun Baban Pawar Advocate - Jagadale A. U. — 264/2024

Summary The court rejected the defendants' application to dismiss the plaint under Order 7 Rule 11 of the CPC. The plaintiff's suit challenging a 2011 sale deed as void and fraudulent is not time-barred because he claims to have discovered the fraud only in 2023, making the suit within the 3-year limitation period under Article 59 of the Limitation Act. The court held that questions of fraud discovery and whether the deed is void ab initio (due to legal prohibition on transfer under Maharashtra tenancy law) are triable issues of fact requiring full evidence at trial, not dismissible at the preliminary stage.
