https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=302483 A registered sale deed carries a presumption of regularity and cannot be treated as void merely because consideration or debt repayment was not separately pleaded where the deed itself supports the transaction. A party seeking to invalidate such an instrument must specifically plead and prove fraud, misrepresentation, or want of due execution; bare assertions of ignorance of the contents are insufficient. Once a written and registered document is proved, oral evidence cannot be used to vary or contradict its terms unless a recognised vitiating circumstance is properly alleged and established.
