Munro, J.—u/s 76 of the Transfer of Property Act, the mortgagee in the absence of a contract to the contrary would be liable to pay the

enhanced Government revenue. I find no such contract in Ex. A. All that can be said is that the parties probably did not anticipate any increase in

the Government Revenue. The fact that the amount of Government Revenue is mentioned in Ex. A cannot make any difference. The Government

Revenue would be the same whether mentioned in Ex. A or not. The plaintiff is, therefore, entitled to the amount claimed for enhanced Revenue

and the lower Court''s decree will be modified accordingly with costs throughout.
