Case Summary: Harminder Singh v. Surjit Kaur (C.A. No. 89/2012) Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal on 27 April 2022. The mortgagee (Harminder Singh) cannot acquire ownership through non-redemption; the mortgagor retains perpetual redemption rights under the principle "once a mortgage always a mortgage." Key Facts: Land mortgaged in 1921; mortgagee's rights transferred to plaintiff in 1979. After 30 years without redemption, plaintiff sued for ownership. Trial and First Appellate Courts agreed; High Court (2007) reversed, holding mortgagor's redemption right survives. Next Steps: Related appeals (C.A. Nos. 1077-1078/2012 and 1045-1046/2012) listed for 04 May 2022. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
