     THIS REGULAR SECOND APPEAL COMING ON FOR FURTHER
HEARING AND THE SAME HAVING BEEN HEARD AND RESERVED FOR
JUDGMENT ON 16.06.2023, THIS DAY, THE COURT PRONOUNCED
THE FOLLOWING:


                         JUDGMENT

Appellants/defendants feeling aggrieved by the

judgment of First Appellate Court on the file of Fast track

Court III, Hospet, in R.A.No.38/2008, dated 03.03.2010 in

confirming the judgment of Trial Court on the file of Civil

Judge (Sr.Dn.) Kudligi in O.S.No.70/2004 dated

22.12.2007 preferred this appeal.

2. Parties to the appeal are referred with their

ranks as assigned in the Trial Court for the sake of

convenience.

3. The factual matrix leading to the case of

plaintiff can be stated in nutshell to the effect that plaintiff

is the absolute owner of the suit schedule property bearing

survey No.218-D measuring 7.13 acres situated at Kalapur

village, Kudligi taluka, Bellary district. The plaintiff has

purchased the suit schedule property from Kammar

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

Jakkamma w/o late Kammar Basappa and her son

Kammar Basappa s/o Basappa under registered sale deed

dated 30.04.1986 for valuable consideration amount of

Rs.7,000/-. In pursuance of the said sale deed the vendor

of the plaintiff delivered possession of the suit property

and accordingly the name of plaintiff is recorded in the

records of the suit schedule property. One

K.Hanumanthappa s/o Basappa who was the relative of

plaintiff's vendor caused obstruction for cultivation of the

suit property, as such the plaintiff had filed the

O.S.No.96/1986 and the same was ended in compromise

on 03.02.1987. The defendants are not the owners and in

possession of any portion of the suit property are denying

the title of plaintiff and continue to cause obstruction to

the peaceful possession and enjoyment of the suit

property by plaintiff. Therefore, plaintiff was constrained to

institute the suit on hand for the relief claimed in the suit.

4. In response to the suit summons the

defendants have appeared through their counsel and filed

written statement contending that suit of plaintiff is false,

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

frivolous and not maintainable in law. It is the case of

defendants that the land bearing survey No.218-D

measuring 7.13 acres situated at Kalapur village, Kudligi

taluka in Bellary district and out of which Eastern side

portion measuring 4.53 acres was purchased by

Naganagowda for valuable consideration of Rs.4,000/-

under registered sale deed dated 10.06.1974 and

delivered the possession in favour of Naganagowda. Thus,

Naganagowda became absolute owner and in possession

of the property purchased by him. The defendants are the

relatives of Naganagowda and he has gifted the land

bearing survey No.218-D measuring 4.53 acres in favour

of these defendants under registered gift deed dated

26.05.1982. On the same day the possession was

delivered to the defendants, since then the defendants are

in actual possession and enjoyment of the properties

gifted to them by Naganagowda. In pursuance of the said

registered gift deed dated 26.05.1982 the name of

defendants were entered in the records. The survey

authorities have affected Durasti, phodi work of survey

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

No.218-D and divided into two portions. The plaintiff is

owner in possession to an extent of 2.60 acres on the

Western side and assigned with survey No.218-D/1 the

remaining extent of 4.53 acres was assigned with new

survey No.218-D/2. The said fact was well within the

knowledge of plaintiff and the plaintiff by suppressing the

said fact has filed the present suit claiming the right over

the entire extent of 7.13 acres under survey No.218-D

which is inclusive of the portion belongs to these

defendants. Therefore, on these grounds prayed for

dismissal of the suit.

5. On the basis of pleadings of the parties, the

Trial Court has framed necessary issues. The plaintiff to

prove his case relied on the oral testimony of PWs.1 and 2

and the documents Exs.P.1 to 14. The defendant have

relied on the evidence of DW.1 and the documents Exs.D.1

to 17. The Trial Court after having heard the arguments of

both sides and on appreciation of oral and documentary

evidence placed before it has decreed the suit of plaintiff.

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

6. The defendants have challenged the said

judgment and decree of the Trial Court before the First

Appellate Court in R.A.No.38/2008. The First Appellate

Court after re-appreciation of evidence by judgment dated

03.03.2010, dismissed the appeal and confirmed the

judgment and decree passed by the Trial Court.

7. Appellants/defendants challenging concurrent

findings of both the Courts below contended that judgment

and decree of First Appellate Court is based on the

erroneous consideration of the material evidence placed on

record. The Courts below proceeded to presume Ex.P.2 as

a genuine document to confer title in favour of plaintiff.

The Courts below have overlooked Ex.D.1 in favour of

Naganagowda and the registered sale deed dated

10.06.1974 who in turn gifted the same under the

registered gift deed dated 26.05.1982 to defendants which

is much prior to the execution of registered sale deed

Ex.P.2 in favour of plaintiff. The Courts below have also

conveniently ignored the extract of re settlement register

Ex.D.3 and RTC Ex.D.4 to Ex.D.7, so also failed to

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

appreciate the evidence of PW.1 U Siddesh without

considering the defendant's evidence. The Courts below

have assumed the facts themselves in favour of

respondent without there being any proper evidence. The

vendor of the plaintiff Kammar Jakkamma w/o late

Kammar Basappa and her son Basappa s/o Basappa have

not been examined to prove the title conferred by them in

favour of plaintiff under Ex.P.2. The Courts below have

overlooked and ignored the important material documents

of defendant i.e., Exs.D.1, D.2, D.9, D.10, D.12 and D.13.

The approach and appreciation of oral and documentary

evidence by both the Courts below are contrary to law and

evidence on record. Therefore, prayed for allowing the

appeal and to set aside the judgment of both the Courts

below. Consequently to dismiss the suit of plaintiff.

8. In response to the notice the respondent

appeared through counsel. This Court by order dated

11.07.2014 has admitted the appeal to consider the

following substantial question of law.

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

1) Whether the Trial Court as well as the First Appellate Court have committed a serious error in ignoring the material evidence placed on record more particularly, ignoring Ex.D.1- registered sale deed and Ex.D.2-Gift deed which have remained unchallenged?

2) Whether both the Courts below have ignored the material fact that Kammar Jakkamama and her son Basappa had no right to sell the entire suit schedule property bearing survey No.218-D and thus, the judgments have become perverse and illegal?

9. Heard the arguments of both sides.

10. On careful perusal of oral and documentary

evidence placed on record by parties to the suit, it would

go to show that the plaintiff is claiming his right over suit

property bearing survey No.218-D measuring 7.13 acres

situated at Kalapur village which he was purchased from

it's erstwhile owner Kammar Jakkamma and her son

Kammar Basappa under the registered sale deed dated

30.04.1986 for valuable consideration of Rs.7,000/- vide

Ex.P.2. In pursuance of the said sale deed the name of

plaintiff came to be recorded in the record of the suit

- 10 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

property and plaintiff was put in possession of the suit

property on the date of executing the sale deed. Whereas,

the defendants are claiming their right over the land

bearing survey No.218-D measuring 4.53 acres under the

registered gift deed dated 26.05.1982 executed by

Naganagowda. The said Naganagowda has purchased the

property gifted to defendants from it's erstwhile owner

under registered sale deed dated 10.06.1974. The

defendants also contended that plaintiff is in possession of

land to an extent of 2.60 acres to the Western side of the

land belongs to defendants and the defendants are not in

possession of remaining extent of land measuring 4.53

acres. It means that plaintiff and defendants are claiming

their right over survey No.218-D. According to the plaintiff

he has purchased land bearing survey No.218-D

measuring 7.13 acres under the registered sale deed

dated 30.04.1986. The defendants are claiming their right

to the extent of 4.53 acres which was purchased by their

donor Naganagowda under registered sale deed dated

10.06.1974. Thereafter, he has gifted the said property to

- 11 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

the defendants under the registered gift deed dated

26.05.1982. The plaintiff has contended that the vendor of

Naganagowda had no any subsisting title over the suit

property in survey No.218-D measuring 4.53 acres of land

which he lawfully can convey the same in favour of

Naganagowda. The defendants were never in possession

of the property alleged to have been gifted to them by

Naganagowda, since their donor Naganagowda himself

had no any title over the property gifted to the

defendants.

11. The Courts below have negated the claim of

defendants that they have acquired the title over land

bearing survey No.218-D measuring 4.53 acres under the

registered gift deed dated 26.05.1982 executed by their

vendor Naganagowda. The Courts below have also held

that the vendors of Naganagowda was having no any

subsisting title over the land measuring survey No.4.53

acres in survey No.218-D. Therefore, the registered sale

deed dated 10.06.1973 in favour of Naganagowda Ex.D.1

and in turn gifted the said property under registered gift

- 12 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

deed dated 26.05.1982 Ex.D.2, does not confer any title

in favour of defendants and they were never put in

possession of the property said to have been gifted to

them by Naganagowda. However, the defendants admit

that plaintiff is the owner and in possession of the land to

an extent of 2.60 acres to the Western side in survey

No.218-D and in the remaining extent of 4.53 acres. The

defendants are claiming to be in possession of the land by

virtue of Ex.D.1 and Ex.D.2. Under the circumstances

referred above, the evidence placed on record by parties

to the suit will have to be appreciated while deciding as to

who has got better title over the extent of land measuring

7.13 acres in survey No.218-D.

12. The oral testimony of PWs.1 and 2 would go to

show that plaintiff is tracing the title by virtue of

registered sale deed dated 30.04.1986 Ex.P.2. The

husband of Jakkamma and father of Basappa has raised

loan for Rs.300/- and executed registered mortgage deed

dated 10.04.1963 vide Ex.P.3 by mortgaging entire extent

of land measuring 7.13 acres in survey No.218-D. In

- 13 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

pursuance of the registered sale deed dated 30.04.1986

Ex.P.2 the name of plaintiff came to be recorded in the

records of the suit property. The plaintiff has produced the

RTC Ex.P.4 from 1979-80 to 1984-85 and Ex.P.5 RTC

1985-86 to 1989-90. In the said records Exs.P.4 and 5 the

name of plaintiff vendors was recorded and from the year

1986-87 as per the entries found in RTC Ex.P.5 pursuant

to the registered sale deed in favour of plaintiff dated

30.04.1986 Ex.P.2, the name of plaintiff came to be

recorded. The name of plaintiff continue to be appearing in

RTC Ex.P.6 to Ex.P.11 related to survey No.218-D to the

entire extent of land measuring 7.13 acres. The mutation

entry 35/86-87 Ex.P.12 would go to show that on receipt

of J-Form pursuant to the registered sale deed dated

30.04.1986 Ex.P.2 and after notice to the vendors of

plaintiff, the aforementioned ME came to be certified

Ex.P.12 to the entire extent of land measuring 7.13 acres.

The registered mortgage deed Ex.P.3 would go to show

that Basappa s/o Kengappa Kammar executed the

registered mortgage deed for taking loan of Rs.300/- in

- 14 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

favour of Bassappa @ Addippan s/o Karibasappa under

registered mortgage deed dated 10.04.1963 by

mortgaging the land bearing survey No.218-D measuring

7.13 acres. It means that as on the date of execution of

the registered mortgage deed dated 10.04.1963 Bassappa

s/o Kengappa Kammar was the owner of the land bearing

survey No.218-D measuring 7.13 acres. The document

Ex.P.3 registered mortgage deed is much prior to the

registered sale deed in favour of Naganagowda dated

26.05.1982 Ex.D.2. The defendants have not challenged

the title deed of Bassappa s/o Kengappa Kammar under

the registered mortgage deed dated 10.04.1963 Ex.P.3.

Thus, the plaintiff by virtue of registered mortgage deed

Ex.P.3 has proved the title of his vendor and the plaintiff

having acquired the title over land bearing survey No.218-

D measuring 7.13 acres by virtue of registered sale deed

dated 30.03.1981 Ex.P.2. The defendants admitted the

possession of plaintiff in survey No.218-D to the extent of

2.60 acres. It means that the defendants are admitting the

title of vendors of plaintiff Bassappa s/o Kengappa

- 15 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

Kammar at least to the extent of 2.60 acres in survey

No.218-D. Therefore, it is now up to the defendants to

demonstrate by evidence on record that the vendor of

Naganagowda was having valid title over 4.53 acres in

survey No.218-D which they have conveyed in favour of

Naganagowda under the registered sale deed dated

10.06.1974 Ex.D.1.

13. The defendants apart from the oral testimony of

DW.1 to prove title of defendants over 4.53 acres in

survey No.218-D relied on the registered sale deed dated

10.06.1973 executed in favour of Naganagowda Ex.D.1.

The said Naganagowda executed registered gift deed

dated 26.05.1982 in favour of defendants Ex.D.2.

Therefore, from the oral evidence of DW.1 and the

aforementioned documents Exs.D.1 and D.2, it is evident

that the defendants are tracing their title over 4.53 acres

of land in survey No.218-D from the vendor of

Naganagowda. The vendor of Naganagowda is one

Mallappa s/o Basappa who has executed the registered

sale deed dated 10.06.1973 Ex.D.1 in favour of

- 16 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

Naganagowda. The defendants have not produced any

documents to show that how the vendor of Naganagowda

i.e., Mallappa s/o Basappa acquired right over survey

No.218-D to the extent of 4.53 acres in survey No.218-D.

The plaintiff have produced the registered partition deed

dated 15.07.1969 where under the son of Bharmappa i.e.,

Mallappa and his three sons Basappa, Bharmappa and

Mallappa have partitioned the family properties. On

perusal of the recitals of registered partition deed dated

15.07.1963 Ex.P.13, it would go to show that survey

No.218-D is not involved in the said partition. It means

that the land bearing survey No.218-D was never the

family properties of Mallappa. If at all the vendor of

Naganagowda, Mallappa s/o Burmappa or his last son

Mallappa was to be the owner of survey No.218-D then the

said property would have been certainly included in the

registered partition deed Ex.P.13, so also to hold that

either Mallappa s/o Burmappa or the last son of Mallappa

i.e., again Mallappa having acquired any title over the land

bearing survey No.218-D. Therefore, from the said

- 17 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

evidence on record and non producing of any title deeds of

the vendor of Naganagowda would only demonstrate the

fact that the vendor of Naganagowda was having no any

valid title over the land bearing survey No.218-D. If that is

so, how come he execute the registered sale deed dated

10.06.1973 Ex.D.1 in favour of Naganagowda by

conveying title to the extent of 4.53 acres in the land

bearing survey No.218-D. Therefore, the execution of

registered gift deed dated 26.05.1982 Ex.D.2 by

Naganagowda in favour of defendants is without any right

title or interest over land bearing survey No.218-D to the

extent of 4.53 acres.

14. The defendants have not produced any

documents of mutation entries and RTC relating to the

land bearing survey No.218-D standing in the name of

either Naganagowda nor his vendor Mallappa. It is true

that in Ex.D.8 the nil encumbrance certificate issued by

the sub registrar, Kudligi. On going through the same, the

transactions covered under Exs.D.1 and 2 and Ex.P.2 have

all been recorded. This nil encumbrance certificate Ex.D.8

- 18 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

produced by the defendants must be supported by the title

deed of vendor of Naganagowda. However, the defendant

have not produced single document to show the title deed

of vendor of Naganagowda relating to land bearing survey

No.218-D to the extent of 4.53 acres. It appears from

Ex.D.8 that survey No.219-C to the extent of 1 acre 20

guntas has also purchased by Naganagowda. The said

survey number can evidence placed under the registered

partition deed dated 15.07.1969 Ex.P.13. The plaintiff is

not disputing the title of Naganagowda over survey

No.219-C. The said Naganagowda has gifted both the

properties i.e., survey No.218-D measuring 4.53 acres and

survey No.219-C measuring 1 acre and 20 guntas.

However, the fact remains that survey No.218-D was not

the property involved in the partition deed Ex.P.13 and the

defendants have not produced any documents to show as

to how the vendor of Naganagowda acquired title over the

land bearing survey No.218-D to the extent of 4.53 acres.

Therefore, the vendor of Naganagowda had no any title to

convey the same in favour of Naganagowda under the

- 19 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

registered sale deed dated 10.06.1973 Ex.D.1 and as a

consequent result Naganagowda had no any title to

convey the same in favour of defendants under registered

gift deed dated 26.05.1982 Ex.D.2.

15. Learned counsel for appellants has also

contended that the First Appellate Court was not justified

in rejecting the application filed under Order 41 Rule 27 of

C.P.C., for production of documents and to led evidence.

The document sought to be produced is the judgment and

decree on the file of Civil Judge(Sr.Dn.) Kudligi in

O.S.No.93/2007. The First Appellate Court for the reasons

recorded in para 13 of it's judgment has rejected the said

application as the same is irrelevant for considering the

dispute involved in the present suit.

16. On going through the judgment and decree

passed in O.S.No.93/2007 sought to be produced under

I.A.No.4 before the First Appellate Court, it would go to

show that plaintiff U Siddesh S/o U Nagappa filed the suit

for partition against his father and brother in the said

- 20 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

partition suit 'B' schedule property at sl.nos.4 and 5 i.e.,

survey Nos.218-D, 219-C2 were also included along with

other properties. The said suit came to be partly decreed

in allotting 1/3 share to the plaintiff of the said suit except

item Nos.4 and 5 of the 'B' schedule property. It means

that the properties related to survey Nos.218-D and 219-C

decree for partition came to be rejected which are involved

in the present suit. In the said suit the present defendant

No.1 Basavarajappa was not party. The present plaintiff

and his brother Pampapati, so also defendant No.2

Rathnamma were parties to the said suit. The said

documents would have become relevant only when the

defendant in the present suit prima facie established the

title of his donor Naganagowda over the land bearing

survey No.218-D. Therefore, the said document by way of

additional evidence being unconcerned to the dispute

between parties has been rightly rejected by the First

Appellate Court.

17. It is not in serious dispute that the entire extent

of land in survey No.218-D is 7.13 acres. Out of it the

- 21 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

defendants are claiming an extent of 4.53 acres under the

registered gift deed dated 26.05.1982 Ex.D.2 executed by

Naganagowda in their favour. The defendants have not

produced any documents to show that in pursuance of the

same mutation entry was certified and their names have

been recorded in RTC to the extent of land gifted to them.

The division in the said land came to be effected for the

first time on the basis of survey measurement and taluka

surveyor has issued notice Ex.D.9 and prepared the

sketch map Ex.D.10 and Ex.D.11. It is after the said

survey, the extent of 4.53 acres assigned with new survey

No.218-D/2 in the name of defendants and survey

No.218-D/1 to the extent of 2.60 acres is shown in the

name of plaintiff. This division affected by the taluka

surveyor is said to have been admitted by the brother of

plaintiff Ex.D.13 and accordingly the entries were also

found in Ex.D.15. There is no evidence placed on record by

the defendants to show that the sale deed of plaintiff

dated 30.03.1981 Ex.P.2 and earlier mortgage deed dated

10.04.1963 Ex.P.3 was taken into consideration at the

- 22 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

time of effecting the survey and the surveyor has

ascertained the title of the vendor of Naganagowda who

has gifted the extent of land 4.53 acres in favour of

defendants under Ex.D.2 dated 26.08.1982. Therefore, the

subsequent bifurcation shown by the surveyor pursuant to

the notice Ex.D.9 is without ascertaining the title of

Naganagowda and the vendor of plaintiff. Therefore, the

same does not confer any title in favour of vendor of

Naganagowda or Naganagowda, so also to the defendants.

The defendants have failed to disprove the title of plaintiff

vendor based on mortgage deed dated 10.04.1963 to the

entire extent of land measuring 7.13 acres in survey

No.218-D. The defendants have further failed to prove as

to how and when, under what documents the vendor of

Naganagowda acquired title to the extent of 4.53 acres in

survey No.218-D. Therefore, the documents of registered

sale deed dated 10.06.1973 Ex.D.1 and the gift deed

executed by Naganagowda dated 26.05.1982 Ex.D.2, does

not confer any title in favour of defendants.

- 23 -

RSA No.5449 OF 2010

18. The Courts below have rightly appreciated the

relevant documents produced by both the parties to the

suit, particularly the title deeds of the plaintiff vendor and

recorded valid reason in negating the claim of defendants

and justified in holding that the vendor of Naganagowda

had no title over the property conveyed to him under the

registered sale deed Ex.D.1 consequently gift deed

executed by Naganagowda in favour of the defendants

cannot convey valid title to defendants. The said findings

recorded by both the Courts below are based on legal

evidence placed on record and the same does not call for

any interference by this Court. Accordingly substantial

question of law are answered in negative. Consequently,

proceed to pass the following:

ORDER
