THE SUB REGISTRAR, OLLOOKKARA SUB REGISTRAR OFFICE, THRISSUR DISTRICT. ADV.MR. P.N. SANTHOSH – GOVERNMENT PLEADER THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 29/06/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S. SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------------ W.P.(C) No.19820 OF 2010 ------------------------------- Dated this the 29th day of JUNE, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner executed a sale deed, copy of which is produced as Ext.P2, in respect of a property belonging to him. The petitioner submits that when the same was presented for registration, the second respondent refused to accept the same for registration on the ground that the fair value fixed by the Government is not mentioned in the same. According to the petitioner, in respect of the petitioner's property no fair value has been fixed by the Government. The petitioner, therefore, seeks the following relief: “ 1. Issue a writ of mandamus or any other writ, direction or order directing the respondents to permit the petitioner to register the sale deed as per Ext.P2 in the books of the 2nd respondent as per the valuation as stated in the deed, if the same is otherwise in order, within the time as framed by this Honourable court”. 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. Today, the learned Government Pleader on instructions submits that there is no impediment in registering the sale deed, if the W.P.(c)No.19820/10 2 document is otherwise in order. In the above circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of with the following directions: The petitioner may present the sale deed again for registration before the second respondent. On receipt of the same, the second respondent shall accept the same for registration and take appropriate steps to register the same. However, it would be open to the Registrar to take appropriate proceedings under Section 45B after registration, if he is of opinion that the correct consideration has not been properly included in the sale deed.
