Summary of C.A. No. 005199/1997 (M Rangasamy v. Rengammal) The Supreme Court allowed the appellant's appeal, setting aside the High Court's judgment and restoring the trial court's decree. The Court held that two gift deeds (Exhibits B-6 and B-7) dated October 27, 1976, were validly executed by Nanjammal in favor of her grandson (the appellant), rejecting claims of fraud and undue influence. The Court found the High Court erred by improperly reappreciating evidence and applying wrong legal principles—specifically, it incorrectly applied succession law provisions meant for wills to gift deeds and wrongly presumed undue influence based solely on family relationship without evidence of actual domination or unfair advantage.
