Suthram Shankar v. The State Of Telangana

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTI CE SANJAY KUMAR WRI T PETI TI ON No.12153 of 2019 ORDER:

The grievance of the petitioner is that the Sub-Registrar, Vemulawada, Rajanna Siricilla District, is not receiving the sale deed presented by him in relation to the land in Survey No.107 of Vemulawada Village and Mandal, Rajanna Siricilla District. It is not open to the registration authority to refuse to receive the document presented for registration. Any such document would necessarily have to be received and processed in accordance with the due procedure and if any grounds are made out for refusing registration, the registering authority concerned is bound to record the reasons therefor in exercise of power under Section 71 of the Registration Act, 1908, and communicate the same to the party concerned.

The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of directing the SubRegistrar, Vemulawada, Rajanna Siricilla District, to receive and process the sale deed presented by the petitioner in relation to the subject land. In the event the said document is found to be in order and in compliance with the requirements of the Registration Act, 1908 and the Indian Stamp Act, 1899, the Sub-Registrar shall complete the registration formalities and release the document. If, however, he finds any grounds to refuse registration, he shall record reasons therefor in exercise of power under Section 71 of the Act of 1908 and communicate the same to the petitioner. This exercise shall be completed expeditiously and in any event, not later than one month from the date of presentation of the document.

Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall stand closed in the light of this final order. No order as to costs. ____________________ JUSTI CE SANJAY KUMAR 19th June, 2019 Note:
