This revision petition arises in proceedings for the passing of a final decree in pursuance of a preliminary decree in a suit for redemption filed by the respondent against the petitioner. The respondent applied to the Court below for the recovery of a sum of Rs. 609-8-4 as balance due for past mesne profits and fof determination of future mesne&#8217; profits. The only con-tention on behalf of the mortgagee who is the petitioner before me which merits any consideration is that the. respondent is not entitled to credit for the profits on the land from .7-9-1949, i.e., the date on which a notification was issued by the Government under Act 26 of 1948, taking over the estate, of which the suit mortgage concerns a part. The Contention was that as the respondent had no more interest in the property after the said date the petitioner was not liable to account for the profits of the property to the respondent on and from that date. This contention was not accepted by the learned District Munsif.\n<\/p>\n<p> 2. I think the District Munsif was wrong in not upholding this contention of the petitioner. It is true that the relationship between the petitioner and the respondent may continue in spite of the notification under Act 26 of 1948, it is true that the mortgagee in possession will be liable to render an account in accordance with the terms of Section 76, Transfer of Property Act. The question, however, is whether the respondent-mortgagor will be entitled in such taking of accounts to the rents and profits of the property on and from 7-9-1949. In my opinion, he will not be entitled. Under Section 3s.(b) of the Madras Act 26 of 1948, on and from the notified date, the entire estate stands transferred to the Government and vests in them free of all encumbrances&#8217; The &#8216;result is, on and from that date, the respondent has ceased to be the owner of the property. Once he has lost  his  title to the property, he cannot obviously be entitled to the rents and profits of that property. Whether the   Government would be  entitled or not to<br \/>\nclaim the rents and profits from that date from<br \/>\nthe petitioner, I am not called upon to discuss<br \/>\nin this petition. There is no such claim before<br \/>\nme. But it is clear to me that the respondent<br \/>\nhas no right whatever to claim the rents and<br \/>\nprofits from the property as and from the said<br \/>\nriotified date.\n<\/p>\n<p> 3. The   civil   revision   petition  is   allowed  to<br \/>\nthis extent and the order of the District Munsif<br \/>\nwill be modified in accordance with this judgment<br \/>\nNo order as to costs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Madras High Court Kalleti Munuswami Setti vs Muppirala Jagannadham on 23 April, 1954 Equivalent citations: AIR 1955 Mad 266 Author: Rajamannar Bench: Rajamannar JUDGMENT Rajamannar, C.J. 1.
