Seizure powers of Registrar allow court authorised entry, search and seizure with mandated return and copying safeguards. Registrar may apply to a magistrate for authority to enter specified premises, search and seize company books and papers where there are reasonable grounds to believe those records may be destroyed, altered or secreted; seized documents must be returned to the custodian within thirty days, though the Registrar may take copies, extracts or place identification marks, and searches/seizures are to follow the Code of Criminal Procedure.
