SARFAESI Act – Priority of Security Interest and Statutory Remedy. Where competing rights over the same immovable property are created at different points of time, the earlier mortgage or security interest prevails over a subsequently created charge under Section 48 of the Transfer of Property Act. The overriding provisions of the SARFAESI Act and the RDB Act operate only to the extent of inconsistency and do not, by themselves, extinguish pre-existing rights or interests. Karnataka High Court.
