As per the conceded posi%on, the agreement in ques%on, the spe- cific performance of which was sought, was executed on 26.03.1993 and the tar- get date for execu%on of the sale deed was agreed to be 31.07.1993. No step was taken by the plain%ff as prospec%ve vendee to get the sale deed executed on or before target date or immediately therea8er within the reasonable period.

As such, the suit filed on 28.05.1997 has been rightly held to be barred by limita%on. 6. No merits. 7. Dismissed.
