Registration of
documents in Sub-Registrar Office
Sub-Registrar is the registering authority of documents produced in his
office under the provision of Indian Registration Act, 1908.
Registration means recording, inserting in an official register, the
act of making a list, Catalogues, Schedules or register particularly
of an official character, or making entries therein.
The object of the Registration Act is to prevent people being duped into
purchasing property from a person who does not own it. The other
object of the Act is to provide a method of public registration of documents
so as to give information to people regarding legal rights and obligation
arising or affecting a particular property, and to perpetuate
documents which may afterwards be of legal importance and also to
prevent fraud and also to put on record somewhere, where people may see the
record and enquire, what the particulars are and as far as land is
concerned, what obligation exists with regard to it. The real
purpose of registration is to secure that every person dealing with the
property, where such dealing requires registration, may rely with confidence
upon the statements contained in the register as full and complete account
of transaction by which his title may be affected, unless indeed he has
actual notice of some unregistered transaction which may be valid apart from
the registration and also to check forgery, to provide good evidence of the
genuineness of the written instruments and not merely to give information to
third parties.
