TO JUDGE Rp ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 28750 OF 2011 ===================== Dated this the 28th day of October, 2011 J U D G M E N T According to the petitioner, he has entered into an agreement with the owner of the property having an extent of 40.47 ares comprised in Sy.No.185/1 of Vagamon Village. The grievance is that the 1st respondent is refusing to register the document on the ground that NOC from the revenue authorities should also be produced. It is in these circumstances the writ petition is filed. 2. The issue raised by the petitioner is fully covered in his favour by virtue of the Division Bench Judgment of this Court in Selvam v. State of Kerala (2010(1) KLT 508), a copy of which is Ext.P2. Therefore, the petitioner is entitled to succeed. In that view of the matter, I dispose of this writ petition directing that, if the sale deed pertaining to the property mentioned above is presented for registration in the manner laid down in law, 1st respondent will accept the same and take it up for registration without insisting on the production of no objection certificate from the revenue authorities. However, it is clarified WPC No. 28750/11 :2 : that even if the document is registered, it shall not be to the prejudice of the respondents if the property is otherwise liable to be proceeded against for any other reason.
