Stamp paper/registration reqd 4 mou & can arbitration b done

Hi,

We have an MOU setup between 2 parties in India, but its not on a stamp paper. Wanted to ask the following details for the MOU to be considered a legal document in India.

1) Is it necessary that MOU should be setup on a stamp paper? We had the above MOU setup on a plain paper under proper supervision of a lawyer.

2) Is it necessary for MOU to be registered? What is the advantage if we register it or disadvantage if we don't register it ?

3) Can we move to arbitration in case the MOU agreement date is over ?

Request all to kindly reply with your responses. In case you feel more information is required, kindlly let me know. Thanks.

1.its not necessary to setup a MOU on stamp paper.

2.its also not compulsory for MOU to be registered

advantages of registration- if mou is registered in case of dispute its easy to prove the authentification of that MOU nad vice versa in case of non registartion

3 you can move for arbitration anytime in ,on and after the date expiry of mou.
