Specific Relief Act, 1963 is the product of _____________

The 9th Law Commission Report, 1958 sought to remove some of the weaknesses of Common Law that had been retained by the 1877 Act, and suggested certain substantive, but mainly linguistic, changes to the legislation. Amongst the former included inter alia the categorisation of equitable remedies made available by the Act (such as recovery of possession of property, declaratory decrees, injunctions etc.), distinguishing specific performance from specific delivery, specification of the cases wherein specific performance would be enforceable and recognition of rights of affected third-parties to sue in exceptional circumstances. The Specific Relief Act, 1963 was promulgated on the basis of these suggestions.
