The Powers-of-Attorney Act, 1882 is a foundational statute governing the creation, scope, and legal effect of powers of attorney in India. It plays a crucial role in property transactions, litigation, banking, corporate affairs, and personal authorisations, enabling lawful delegation of authority from one person to another.
This Bare Act with Comments, published by Law & Justice Publishing Co., presents the statute in a clear, precise, and reader-friendly format, making it a dependable reference for day-to-day legal practice. The 2025 Edition incorporates amendments effected by the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019, ensuring the text reflects the current territorial and legal framework.
A key strength of this publication is the inclusion of Model Forms of Powers-of-Attorney, which provide practical templates for drafting general and special powers of attorney, thereby bridging the gap between statutory law and real-world application.
Further enriched with Supreme Court Guidelines and Landmark Judgments, this edition offers authoritative judicial interpretation on issues such as validity, misuse, registration requirements, and the extent of authority under a power of attorney—making it indispensable for both advisory and litigation purposes.
