Introduction
A sale of goods or property implies a transfer or passing of ownership to the buyer. The passing of
property is an important aspect to help determine the liabilities and rights of both the buyer and the
seller. Once a property is passed to the buyer, then the risk in the goods sold is that of the buyer and
not the seller. This is true even if the goods are in the possession of the seller. Let us learn more about
the passing of property in the Sale of Goods Act. The property in the goods is said, to be
transferred from the seller to the buyer when the latter acquires the proprietary rights over the
goods and the obligations linked thereto. 'Property in Goods' which means the ownership of
goods, is different from ' possession of goods' which means the physical custody or control of the
goods.
This project will look into the primary rules that govern the passing of property:

legislations with regard to the topic being dealt with.
