Abstract:
The third edition of this book Equity, trusts and specific relief along with a chapter on fiduciary relationships by B.M. Gandhi. This edition brings case law on various points up to date. The aim and object of Equity and its role as explained in Manju Bfzatja case, 1997 and A.P. Financial Corporation case, 1994 have been taken note of in cases arising out of contract, equity steps in and takes over and imposes liability upon the defendant for un quantified damages for the breach of duty owed by the defendant to the plaintiff. The principles of justice and conscience are thus the basis of equity jurisdiction and equity has a role to play in the field of tort too.
