Benami Property in the name of wife

Indian Law

The Delhi high court has said that a property purchased by the husband in the name of his wife from known sources can’t be treated as benami property. Setting aside a trial court order that treated one such property as benami, HC said it was to be proved during trial whether the property was purchased through known or unknown sources of income and it couldn’t be automatically dubbed benami if the husband bought it in his wife’s name.
