THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA CIVIL REVISION PETITION No. 3922 of 2011 ORDER: This civil revision petition is directed against the order dated 26.08.2010, passed by the Additional Senior Civil Judge, Chittoor District, dismissing the application in I.A. No. 363 of 2010 in I.A. No. 490 of 2007 in I.A. No. 555 of 2006 in O.S. No. 274 of 2006 filed by the petitioner praying to send unregistered relinquishment deed dated 20.09.2000 to the Revenue Divisional Officer, Chittoor, for impounding and collection of stamp duty and penalty thereon. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the order under revision. The relinquishment deed dated 20.09.2000, which the petitioner sought to send to the Revenue Divisional Officer, Chittoor, is an unregistered document. The relinquishment deed, being an unregistered document, is inadmissible in evidence for want of registration and deficiency of stamp duty. In Telugu Kishna Mohan v. Smt. Boggula Padmavathi[1], this Court held that an unregistered relinquishment deed is inadmissible in evidence for want of registration inasmuch as the purpose for which the document is being relied upon is the principal purpose not for any collateral purpose and the question of sending such document to the Revenue Divisional Officer for levying of stamp duty and penalty also does not arise. In the instant case also, the petitioner is relying on the unregistered relinquishment deed for the purpose of claiming title to the property and not for any collateral purpose and, therefore, no fault can be found with the order under revision passed by the Court below, refusing to send the unregistered relinquishment deed to the Revenue Divisional Officer, Chittoor, for impounding and collection of stamp duty and penalty thereon. I find no reason whatsoever to interfere with the order under revision, in exercise of supervisory jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. The civil revision petition is devoid of merit and the same is accordingly dismissed. No costs. __________________ JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA 4th November, 2011 IBL [1] 2009 (5) ALT 132
