Registration -- Sub Registrar's Power -- Indefinite deferral of decision on sale deed not permitted under Registration Act, 1908
Registration Act, 1908, S.17/18 -- Registration -- Sub Registrar's Power -- The Registering Authority must either register or refuse a document in accordance with law -- The Act does not permit indefinite deferral of pending documents through reference to superior authorities for clarification -- Powers of a Sub Registrar are administrative, not quasi-judicial, and are limited to verifying accompanying documents, not adjudicating title -- Availability of appeal under S.72 against refusal confirms that only a definitive decision is contemplated, not deferment.
