https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=192672 A sale of a motor vehicle is not rendered ineffective merely because registration is not transferred into the transferee's name. The Motor Vehicles Act, 1939 contemplated transfer of ownership and placed on the transferee the duty to report the transfer within thirty days and produce the registration certificate for endorsement. Where the sale papers and registration documents were handed over, the transferee's failure to approach the registering authority could not invalidate the sale or support a claim for refund of the purchase money or damages. The sale therefore remained effective, and recovery based solely on non-transfer of registration was not maintainable. en-us Fri, 08 Feb 1980 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 10 Jun 2017 10:00:03 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=192672 A sale of a motor vehicle is not rendered ineffective merely because registration is not transferred into the transferee's name.
