Section 33 of SRA : Section 33: Power To Require Benefit To Be Restored Or Compensation To Be Made When Instrument Is Cancelled Or Is Successfully Resisted As Being Void Or Voidable

Explanation using Example

Imagine John sold a piece of land to Alice using a fraudulent contract, which misrepresented the land's characteristics. Alice later discovers the fraud and files a lawsuit to cancel the contract. The court decides in Alice's favor and cancels the contract under Section 33(1) of the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The court may also order John to compensate Alice for any expenses she incurred due to his misrepresentation, such as the cost of a survey she commissioned based on the false information provided by John.
