The following sections of the LA Act,1894 refer to some registrable instrument(award?):
"51. Exemption from stamp duty and fees. - No award or agreement made under this Act shall be chargeable with stamp duty, and no person claiming under any such award or agreement shall be liable to pay any fee for a copy of the same.
[51A. Acceptance of certified copy as evidence. - In any proceeding under this Act, a certified copy of a document registered under the Registration Act, 1908 (16 of 1908), including a copy given under section 57 of that Act, may be accepted as evidence of the transaction recorded in such document]".
Do these 2 paragraphs of LA Act,1894 mean
1. That an award or agreement made under this Act is registrable but not chargeable with stamp duty.
2. Person claiming under any such award or agreement shall be liable to pay any fee for a copy of the same obtainable from the Registrar.
3. In any proceeding under this Act, a certified copy of a document registered (by the acquiring LAO/Government) under the Registration Act,1908, including a copy given by the Registrar under section 57 of that Act, may be accepted as evidence of transaction recoded in such document.
4. The two paragraphs definitely refer to the registration of an instrument/ by the LAO in the LA process. What is that document?
or what are those documents?
