https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=781719 An assignment deed transferring a decree for specific performance was held not to be compulsorily registrable under the Registration Act, 1908, because such a decree does not by itself create, declare, assign, limit or extinguish any right, title or interest in immovable property. The decree only recognises a contractual right to obtain conveyance, and the sale is completed only upon execution and registration of the sale deed. The assignee may enforce the decree under Order 21 Rule 16 of the Code of Civil Procedure, subject to statutory conditions. The challenge to enforceability therefore failed, and the High Court's view was sustained. en-us Wed, 19 Nov 2025 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 19 Nov 2025 18:46:57 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=781719 An assignment deed transferring a decree for specific performance was held not to be compulsorily registrable under the Registration Act, 1908, because such a decree does not by itself create, declare, assign, limit or extinguish any right, title or interest in immovable property.
