Rajiv Ghosh vs Satya Naryan Jaiswal 2025 INSC 467 - Order XII Rule 6 - Admissions
Code of Civil Procedure 1908 - Order XII Rule 6 - The words “or otherwise” are wide enough to include all cases of admissions made in the pleadings or de hors the pleadings i.e. either in any document or even in the statement recorded in the Court. If one of the parties' statement is recorded under O. 10, Rr. 1 and 2 of the Code of Civil Procedure, the same is also a statement which elucidates matters in controversy. Any admission in such statement is relevant not only for the purpose of finding out the real dispute between the parties but also to ascertain as to whether or not any dispute or controversy exists between the parties. Admission if any is made by a party in the statement recorded, would be conclusive against him and the Court can proceed to pass judgment on the basis of the admission made therein. (Para 35-37)
