Dear Vel Murugan,

From ur name, i infer that u r from TN. In TN, there is no problem to cancel the sale deed, if both the parties sign and execute the cancellation deed.

It can be and have to be registered in the registrar office.

It shall be registered in the Book-I of the SRO and shall be reflected in Encumbrance certificate.

Yes, I fully endorse what Mr. Sri Vijayan has expressed.

L. Vinoba,

Advocate,

Pondicherry.

When both are agreeing then no problem is there in executing the cancellation deed. Further nowadays both the persons photographs are also affixed. So tomorrow the same cannot be questioned by them. You can cancel the same if both are willing. Only problem will be the revenue authorities who will want it as a sale deed and not cancellation deed. This is because it is like sale, the original owner is getting back the property. So revenue loss to the govt. if cancellation is allowed like this. Here the Seller is purchasing the property from the purchaser.

1. I think Revenue authorities means Officials of Revenue department,
2. Revenue officials do not have any loss of revenue by this transaction, bcoz they concern about land revenue only.
3. only registration officials shall think about stamp duty and its registration fee.
4. If we consider the pre-seller is purchasing back the property from the pre-buyer, it is called re-conveyance, which attract full stamp duty.
5. Here, cancelaation deed can be registered
6. I also think, there is no limitation period for cancellation
7. Even if any limitaion, the period is within the reasonble limit in the present case

sir,what if only sale agreement is done and deed for registration has not been done
