Sale of Goods Act, 1930
44. Liability of buyer for neglecting or refusing delivery
of goods
When the seller is ready and willing to deliver the goods and
requests the buyer to take delivery, and the buyer does not within a reasonable
time after such request take delivery of the goods, he is liable to the seller
for any loss occasioned by his neglect or refusal to take delivery and also for
a reasonable charge for the care and custody of the goods:
PROVIDED that nothing in this section shall affect the
rights of the seller where the neglect or refusal of the buyer to take delivery
amounts to a repudiation of the contract.
