Purposive interpretation of residential house exemption: unregistered purchase agreement alone does not defeat relief, but investment must be verified...
Secured creditors' statutory priority in realising dues from secured assets prevails over State tax claims, including claims supported by a State-law first charge or non obstante clause. A State relying on a prior attachment must establish compliance with the prescribed recovery procedure, including public proclamation; an attachment order alone does not sustain the claim. Following enforcement of security interest and completion of a SARFAESI auction, purchasers holding sale certificates may enjoy the property free of State tax encumbrances. "As is where is" auction terms do not permit retention of revenue-record encumbrance entries or pursuit of the asset in the purchaser's hands for State dues.
