Sections 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 of The Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act gives details of the conditions of the valid adoption.
A giving and taking cermony of the child has to be performed and in the event of absence of a registered adoption deed the occurance of such cermony shall be proved before the court.
In AIR 2000 All. 166 it is held that unregistered document of adoption not admissible in evidence to prove adoption.
