A mortgage is particularly the transfer of an interest in some immovable property by a person termed called mortgagor to another person called the mortgagee.

Lastly, the aim of the research is to compare the rights and liabilities of the mortgagor in the present modern world and to realize the need for an amendment in mortgage law under the Transfer of Property Act for stricter implementation of laws.
