LIMITATION ACT 1963
The Limitation Act, 1963 prescribes the time limits within which legal actions must be initiated before courts. For LLB students, understanding limitation law is essential, as questions relating to limitation frequently arise in civil suits, appeals, applications, and execution proceedings. This category provides structured and exam-oriented notes on the Limitation Act, focusing on clarity of concepts rather than mere memorisation.
The notes explain key provisions relating to computation of limitation, acknowledgment of liability, effect of fraud and mistake, exclusion of time, and condonation of delay. Important articles of the Schedule are discussed to help students understand how limitation periods vary depending on the nature of the suit or application. Where necessary, judicial interpretations are included to show how courts apply limitation principles in practice.
These notes are particularly useful for semester examinations and for understanding the procedural connection between the Limitation Act and the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. Students are encouraged to read these notes alongside the bare act for effective exam preparation.
