Emphasizing the proper course of action, the Court held that in such situations, the plaintiff must seek a declaration of ownership along with recovery of possession, instead of filing a simple injunction suit under the Specific Relief Act, 1963.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align:center\"><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><strong>Facts:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">A Bench comprising Justice Ahsanuddin Amanullah and Justice K. Vinod Chandran was hearing a matter where the plaintiff, D. Rajammal, had sought an injunction against her brother, Munuswamy (now deceased, represented by his legal representatives), from alienating or interfering with the possession of a disputed property. The claim was based on a Will purportedly executed by their father, Rangaswamy Naidu, bequeathing equal shares to Rajammal and another sibling, Govindarajan.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif; font-size:14pt\">The defendant, however, argued that the property was ancestral in nature and not the father&rsquo;s self-acquired estate. He also claimed that he was in possession as a co-owner under a family arrangement executed in 1983.<\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">While the trial court had accepted the plaintiff&rsquo;s claim and granted two injunctions, restraining alienation and interference with possession, the First Appellate Court reversed the decision, holding that the property was ancestral and that the Will was invalid. <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><strong>The High Court, in a second appeal, restored the trial court&rsquo;s findings, reasoning that &ldquo;possession follows title.&rdquo;<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif; font-size:14pt\">Aggrieved by this, the defendant approached the Supreme Court, contending that since the plaintiff had admitted that the property was in the defendant&rsquo;s possession, a suit for injunction simply was not maintainable unless it was accompanied by a declaration of title and a prayer for possession.<\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><strong style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif; font-size:14pt\">Apex Court&rsquo;s Observation:<\/strong><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">Upholding this argument, the Supreme Court noted that when the defendant also claims ownership, a simple injunction suit cannot be maintained without first seeking declaratory relief. The Court emphasized that the plaintiff, despite asserting ownership under the Will, had failed to seek recovery of possession.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><strong>&ldquo;It is also significant that though the plaintiff did not have possession, she had not claimed recovery of possession. While asserting a Will and title on its strength, there should have been a declaration of title sought, especially when the contention of the defendant was that he came into the property as a co-owner and then occupied it with absolute rights,&rdquo;<\/strong><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"> the Court observed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">The Bench added that the High Court erred in interfering with the First Appellate Court&rsquo;s findings, as the plaintiff&rsquo;s own admission of the defendant&rsquo;s possession made the injunction claim untenable. <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><strong>&ldquo;Even if the title is established, there should have been a recovery of possession sought by the plaintiff,<\/strong><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">&rdquo; the Court held, <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><strong>dismissing the injunction claim.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <hr \/>\n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">Case: <\/span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/api.sci.gov.in\/supremecourt\/2024\/31579\/31579_2024_1_1501_64856_Judgement_07-Oct-2025.pdf\" style=\"text-decoration-line: none;\"><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#1155cc\">S.
