Under Section 6 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963, a person dispossessed of immovable property otherwise than in due course of law may recover possession by a suit filed within:

Section 6 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963, provides that if a person is dispossessed of immovable property otherwise than in due course of law, he or any person claiming through him may recover possession by a suit filed within six months of the date of dispossession, without being required to prove title. Sub-section (3) declares that no appeal lies from a decree passed in such a suit, nor shall the decree or order be set aside by any court. The remedy under Section 6 is summary and founded on possession alone, while title questions are decided in suits under Section 5. The suit cannot be brought against the Government. Twelve months, one month, three years, or a six-month window carrying a right of appeal all misstate the statutory scheme.
