🗣️ Simple Explanation

This section defines some key terms used in the Transfer of Property Act. It tells you what 'immoveable property' is (it doesn't include things like trees you can cut down), what 'registered' means, and that 'person' can mean a group of people or a company.

💡 Real Life Example

A farmer sells his mango trees. According to this section, the mango trees are considered 'immoveable property' until they are cut down.

🛡️ KNOW YOUR RIGHTS
  • Know the definition of 'immoveable property' to understand what you can and cannot transfer.
  • Understand that 'person' includes companies and groups, not just individuals.
