Study the following information and answer the question that follows:
Principle: A 'fixture' is something attached to land or a building in such a way that it is regarded as an irremovable part of the property you are considering buying. Some typical 'fixture' in a home included the hot water service, range top, wall oven, fixed floor coverings, light fittings and a bulitrin (under bench) dishwasher. Garden plants, including bushes and trees are also 'fixtures'.
Rule A. When land is sold, all 'fixtures' on the land are also deemed to have been sold.
Rule B. If a movable thing is attached to the land or any building on the land, than it becomes a 'fixture'.
Factual Situation Khaleeda wants to sell a plot of land she owns in Beghmara (Meghalaya) and the sale value decided for the plot includes the fully-furnished palatial six-bedroom house that she has built on it five years ago. She sells it to Gurpreet for $Rs. 60$ lakh. After completing the sale, she removes the expensive Iranian carpet which used to cover entire wooden floor of one of the bedrooms. The room had very little light and Khaleeda used this light-coloured radiant carpet to negate some of the darkness in the room. Gurpreet, after moving in, realises this and files a case to recover the carpet from Khaleeda.
Assume that in the above fact scenario, Khaleeda no longer wants the carpet. She removes the elaborately carved door to the house after the sale has been concluded and claims that Gurpreet has no claim to the door. The door is question was part of Khaleeda's ancestral home in Nagercoil (Tamil Nadu) for more than $150$ years before she had it fitted as the entrance to her Beghmara house.
Rule C. If a moveable thing is placed on land with the intention that it should become an integral part of the land or any structure on the land, it becomes a fixture. Applying Rules A and C, to the fact situations in questions $44$ and $45$, as a judge you would decide in favour of
