According to the petitioner, he wants to sell the property. But, however, the respondent is refusing registration for the reason that NOC issued by the Revenue authorities is not produced. It is therefore that this writ petition is filed. 2. Issue similar to this has already been considered by a Division Bench of this Court in Selvam Vs. State of Kerala [2010 (1) KLT 508] and it has been held that the certificate of the Revenue authorities cannot be insisted. 3. In the light of the above judgment, this writ petition is disposed of, directing that it will be open to the petitioner to produce his sale deed for registration, in which event, the same will be accepted and dealt with by the respondent, in accordance with law. W.P.(C) No.34503/2011 : 2 : However, registration of the document shall not be to the prejudice of the authorities if the property is otherwise liable to be proceeded against for any other reason.
