Agreement to sell

I have entered into an agreement to sell my property for sum of Rs..XXXXXXXX. Five clauses amongst others of Terms of the Agreement are as follows:-

Clause No 1. That The sale consideration for rights and titles of the seller in the said property is fixed between the parties at Rs..XXXXXX, out of which the seller has acknowledged the receipt of a sum of Rs..XXXXXXX as advance amount.

Clause No 2. The Buyer will also pay other part payment of Rs..XXXXXXX to the seller on or before DDMMYYYY

Clause No 3. That the balance sale consideration of Rs..XXXXXXX will be paid by the buyer to the seller on or before DDMMYYYY.

Clause No 8. If the buyer commits breach of the agreement, the seller shall be entitled to forfeit the entire earnest money paid by the buyer to the seller; and the seller will be at liberty to resell the property to any person. If the seller commits breach of agreement, he shall be liable to refund the double of earnest money received by him to the buyer.

Clause No 9. That in case any of the party hereto infringes any of the terms and conditions of this agreement, then the other party will be entitled to get this transaction enforced through the court of Law by specific performance of the contract at the cost of the party who has defaulted

Note : The advance amount mentioned in clause 1 is exactly 10 % of the total sale consideration while part payment mentioned at Clause 2 is approx 40 % of total sale consideration. Now the date of part payment has arrived, but the buyer has not paid the money .

My queries are:-

1. Verbal discussions were held with the buyer 2 days before the date of part payment and he had sought some more time. Is any notice in writing required to be given to him that he has failed to make the part payment ( though informal communication through sms has been made to him)?

2. If he fails to make any payment on or before the last date of the agreement, can advance amount paid by the buyer be forfeited without any notice in view of clause 8 of the agreement. Is the word 'advance amount' used in clause 1 has the same connotation as earnest money used in clause No 8 as amount mentioned in clause 1 was the initial 10 % amount received at the time of entering into the agreement.

3. Alternatively , can the buyer be dragged to court for specific performance of the contract in view of clause 9 of the agreement. If yes, how much time does it take to get the decision of the court- I mean long drawn process or straightforward.

Advice is benignly solicited.

Mortgage

It is a settled position of law that once a right of redemption is exercised and readiness was shown for the payment of mortgage debt, the mortgagee is not entitled to claim any interest on the Mortgage debt.
Please share and quote judgment in this regard.

Background varification by an indian mnc

Dear Sir,
Good Afternoon, I have a query regarding job that I have got an offer letter from an Indian MNC and they provided me the joining date but they have extended 3 times my joining date by saying that your criminal check is under process and one day they asked me that something is showing up case against you in background criminal check process.
they asked me any case was against you, i told them that i got divorced in previous years after all settlement by the court and got married now, that is it only and nothing else. so please let me know at the earliest that the divorced case comes under criminal case whereas everything has been done by the Court.

I will be happy if you answer me.

Thanks & Regards
Vicky Sharma
