Validity of unregistered release deed

A share in the immovable property can be relinquished by a registered release deed only. It should be compulsorily registered. An unregistered release deed is not valid in the eyes of law.

Hi Sambhu,

I have recently fought a case based on unregistered release deed signed on stamp paper. The release deed though unregistered is valid in eyes of law if it proved to a faimly settlement, cases can be seen in indiankanoon.org where unregistered deed is accepted in court of law.

However unregistered release deed does not give you title of property, but will be considered as a supporting document. If a case in filed in the court, please note that you need to prove the deed to support your title in court or else your case will be out right rejected.

1. Your self witness in court.

2. Call all witness to prove it.

3. Call notary public officer/vendor to perfect it.

Hope it helps, please remember the keyword is 'faimly settlement', however your case circumstances will also considered.

Regards,
Manish

I agree with my Ld. friend Archana.  However if the contents of the document can be interpreted as Memorandum of " family settlement "  then& only then it will be valid & admissible

Sir,

1. I would like to know whether you are one of the legal hier who got the release from the few legal hiers. If so you can rely on the same for collateral pupose on payment of stamp duty penalty for making the doument legally admissible under law.  This penalty depends on various clause such as the amount which is received by the few legal hiers.
   
2. If the few legal heirs who have received the amount is below Rs 100/- in total . The douments is perfectly valid under law and need no registration. You can forget thier threat.
