Contract Act, 1872 (IX of 1872)-- ----S. 55--Fixing of time as essence of contract--Principle--Where there is failure on the part of buyer to complete transaction and time is also not made essence of contract then it is for the seller to make time essence of contract by fixing reasonable time for performance of contract, whereafter if buyer fails to complete the transaction, the contract comes to an end.
