After which a sum of Rs,20,00,000 was paid and tendered by the respondent to the appellant leaving a balance of Rs, 30,00,000. The appellant has taken the defence that the agreement was rescinded. This aspect of the matter can only be decided through evidence. Be that as it may, it is settled law as has also been held by this Court in the judgments relied upon by the learned counsel for the appellant that in a suit for specific performance of an agreement to sell the vendee/plaintiff must deposit the balance admitted consideration in order to entitle him for grant of temporary injunction.
