THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION No.10146 of 2011 O R D E R: This writ petition has been instituted seeking a Writ of Mandamus for declaring the action of the third respondent in not registering the mortgage deed presented by the petitioner in respect of Plot No.51 in Sy.No.74/7 of Industrial Park, Auto Nagar, Tirupathi, as bad in law and for directing the third respondent-Registrar, Stamps and Assurances, Balaji Registration Office, Tirupathi, Chittoor District, to register the same. It appears that the Andhra Pradesh Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Ltd has acquired right, title and interest over land to an extent of Ac.26-00 in Sy.No.74/7 of Akkarampalli Village and Ac.5-32 cents situated in Sy.No.95/2 of Mangalam Village and developed the same into an industrial park. It appears that the Andhra Pradesh Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Ltd has allotted plot No.51 in favour of M/s Sri Venkateswara Spare Parts represented by its Proprietor Sri S. Subramanyam. It has executed a deed of sale in favour of the said purchaser on 18th August, 2010. That document has been registered by the third respondent herein. It is now asserted by the petitioner herein that after obtaining prior permission from the Andhra Pradesh Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Ltd, the said Sri Venkateswara Spare Parts represented by its proprietor Sri Subramanyam sold the land covered by Plot No.51 in the Industrial Park to the petitioner herein and the third respondent has registered the said sale transaction as sale deed No.5470/2010 on 25.10.2010. Thus, the petitioner has acquired right, title and interest over this plot No.51 of Industrial Park, Tirupathi, with a view to carry on the necessary industrial activity thereon. The petitioner entered into certain financial arrangements with his bankers. As a security to a loan transaction, the petitioner has proposed to mortgage the said land comprising of plot No.51 of the Industrial Park in favour of his banker. When the said deed of mortgage is presented for registration by the petitioner, the third respondent has objected to entertain and register the same on the plea that the Joint Collector–cum Settlement Officer, Chittoor, through his letter dated 23rd October, 2010, directed the third respondent not to entertain any registrations of land in certain survey numbers and amongst them Sy.No.74 of Akkarampalli Village was also notified. In view of this letter of the joint Collector, the third respondent is now declining to register the mortgage. The third respondent has obviously not properly understood the scope and content of the communication sent up by the Joint Collector on 23rd October, 2010. When once a parcel of land has been acquired by the Andhra Pradesh Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Ltd, which is a State owned Corporation and when once the said corporation has acquired nearly Ac.26-00 of land in Sy.No. 74/7 of Akkarampalli Village and developed the same as industrial park, the Joint Collector has not intended or proposed to stop any sale transactions with regard to the industrial park to be entertained by the third respondent. Therefore, the third respondent could not have refused to register any document, which is otherwise liable to be registered by him, concerning the lands forming part of Sy.No.74/7 of Akkarampalli Village, Chittoor District, which was acquired by the Andhra Pradesh Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Ltd and developed by it as an industrial park. Therefore, the communication dated 23rd October 2010 of the Joint Collector must be construed and understood as not applicable insofar as the land to an extent of Ac.26-00 situated in Sy.No.74/7 of Akkarampalli Village, which has been acquired by the Andhra Pradesh Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Ltd and developed by it as an industrial park. Hence, the third respondent is directed to register the deed of mortgage presented by the petitioner herein concerning plot No.51 of the Industrial Park at Tirupati and deal with the same in accordance with law. The Writ Petition stands allowed as indicated supra after hearing the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue. No costs. --------------------------------------- (NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO, J) 15th April, 2011 bud
