THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA WRIT PETITION No.2371 of 2011 ORDER: It is stated that the first petitioner is the absolute owner and possessor of the property admeasuring Ac.0.72 cents and Ac.0.40 cents in Survey Nos.1392/1 and 1392/6 respectively situated at Markapur Municipal Limits, which was gifted to him by his grand father under a registered settlement deed dated 16.09.2008. He settled 726 square yards out of Ac.0.40 cents in Survey No.1392/6 in favour of second petitioner and further he sold Ac.0.10 cents of land in the same survey number to one Pasupula Venkateswarlu. He intended to sell the remaining property to third parties and for that purpose he approached the second respondent to furnish him necessary particulars of valuation for the said land as recorded in the basic value register. But, the second respondent refused to furnish such information and also to entertain the sale deeds for registration on the ground that his donor had cancelled the gift that was made in his favour. Aggrieved by the same, the present writ petition is filed. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned Government Pleader for Revenue. It is well settled law that when a document is presented for registration, it is obligatory on the part of the registering authorities to entertain such document and process the same for registration as per the provisions of the Registration Act, 1908 and the Rules made thereunder. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of directing the second respondent to entertain and process the documents presented by the petitioners in respect of the subject lands. However, it is made clear that such registration shall be subject to the compliance of the provisions of the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 and the Rules made thereunder. Further, it is clear that if there are any objections for registration, it is open for the authorities to record reasons for such refusal and communicate the same to the petitioners. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________________________ JUSTICE ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA 07.02.2011 KH/pn
