A right to sue accrued to X on 1.1.2000 when he was a minor aged 15 years. The period of limitation of 2 years expires on

1.1.2002

1.1.2003

1.1.2005

None of the above

- When a minor’s right to sue accrues, limitation doesn't start until they reach majority (Section 6, Limitation Act).

- X was 15 on 1.1.2000, so he’d become major at 18, i.e., on 1.1.2003.

- Limitation of 2 years starts from 1.1.2003, not earlier.

- The time to file expires on 1.1.2005.

- Option:1 (1.1.2002) ends before X even becomes major.

- Option:2 (1.1.2003) is when he turns 18; period starts, not ends.

- Option:3 (1.1.2005) is two years after majority.

- Option:4 (None of the above) is incorrect, as option 3 is right.

Correct Answer: Option:3, 1.1.2005
