As per your query let me introduce you with Section 115 of the Indian Evidence Act (IEA), 1872 deals with Estoppel.

This section further states that -
"When one person has, by his declaration, act or omission, intentionally caused or permitted another person to believe a thing to be true and to act upon such belief, neither he nor his representative shall be allowed, in any suit or proceeding between himself and such person or his representative, to deny the truth of that thing."

Therefore, as per this Section 115 all of the above situation would apply for rule of Estoppel.

Hope It Helps

Regards
