law: Sale of Goods Act, 1930
  8. Goods perishing before sale but after agreement to sell
  
  
  Where there is an agreement to sell specific goods, and
  
  subsequently the goods without any fault on the part of the seller or buyer
  
  perish or become so damaged as no longer to answer to their description in the
  
  agreement before the risk passes to the buyer, the agreement is thereby avoided.
