Avtar Singh's Law of Sale of Goods

The 9th Edition of Dr. Avtar Singh's Law of Sale of Goods has been revised by Dr. Deepa Paturkar. The book has been thoroughly updated with the latest statutory developments and case law that has evolved over the recent years. The chapters in the book have been re-examined, updated and, where necessary, rewritten. An attempt has been made to present an account of the underlying fundamentals of the Law of Sale of Goods in light of the evolving case law and statutory law.

Over the last few years, significant statutory developments have had a distinctive impact on the Law of Sale of Goods. The concept of "Goods" has been introduced by the law on Goods and Services Tax. The Consumer Protection Act, 2019, by introducing the inclusion of online sale of goods and product liability has further enlarged both scope as well as jurisdiction of the law in the online realm. The remedies for breach of a contract of the sale of goods need to be re-appreciated in view of the changes brought about by new law on consumer protection.
