WHEN DOES THE TRANSIT COME TO AN END?

When does the transit come to an end?

The right of stoppage in transit is lost when transit comes to an end. Transit comes to an end in the following cases:

•  When the buyer or other bailee obtains delivery. 
•  Buyer obtains delivery before the arrival of goods at destination. 
•  Where the carrier or other bailee acknowledges to the buyer or his agent that he holds the goods as soon as the goods are loaded on the ship, unless the seller has reserved the right of disposal of the goods. 
•  If the carrier wrongfully refuses to deliver the goods to the buyer. 
•   Where goods are delivered to the carrier hired by the buyer, the transit comes to an end. 
• Where the part delivery of the goods has been made to the buyer, there the transit will come to an end for the remaining goods which are yet in the course of transmission. 
•  Where the goods are delivered to a ship chartered by the buyer, the transit comes to an end. [section 51]
