Punjab and Haryana High Court Upholds Property Transfer Cancellation Over Elder Care Obligation
The Punjab and Haryana High Court upheld the cancellation of a property transfer from elderly parents to their son after he failed to provide promised care. The court emphasized that under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007, property transfers conditioned on caregiving obligations can be annulled if care is not provided. The ruling clarified that such conditions need not be explicitly stated in the deed but can be inferred from the transaction's context and related evidence.
