Well advised, nothing more to add.
Sri Vijayan.A (Expert) 25 July 2013
The sale deed is not necessary, if the Bank is invoking the provisions of SARFAESI Act.

But the sale certificate is to be registered.
K.K.Ganguly (Expert) 09 August 2013
1. Bank will issue Sale certificate as per SARFAESI Act,2002 which you can register. This is perfectly O.K.,

2. Bank will not execute and register any Sale Deed,

3. Make sure to collect the original mother deed of the property which was mortgaged to the selling Bank.
