Whether the principles of Equity are themselves applicable in Indian law or they are the basis of some legislations?

As per your query, let me tell you that equity is a separate system of law from the Common-Law. It has different rules, principles, and remedies. Thus, to understand the principles on which the Law of Equity is based, we must understand its origin and the reasons for its requirement despite the presence of a system of law, i.e. the Common Law. Common Law is the body of customary law which originated in the Curia Regis (King’s Court), London. English Common Law was primarily developed by judges and was based on judicial decisions and precedents. And yes, they do attain applicability in Indian Legal System.
