https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=192610 Government leases may fall within the category of Government grants or assignments exempt from registration requirements for evidentiary admissibility. The term "grant" is broad enough to include a lease and is not confined to sanads or similar instruments by the ejusdem generis rule; an unregistered Government lease may therefore be admitted in evidence. Special powers governing Government grants and transfers can also exclude tenant-protection provisions that would otherwise invalidate restrictive covenants. Consequently, a covenant prohibiting construction of buildings in a Government lease may remain valid and enforceable despite statutory protections for tenants' improvements. en-us Tue, 22 Jul 1919 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 07 Jun 2017 18:41:51 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=192610 Government leases may fall within the category of Government grants or assignments exempt from registration requirements for evidentiary admissibility.
