Section 77 Registration Act | Execution of Sale Deed Invalid Without Full Consideration Payment : Punjab & Haryana HC
The Punjab & Haryana High Court ruled that a sale deed cannot be registered under Section 77 of the Registration Act if the buyer fails to pay the balance consideration, as execution requires adherence to all contractual terms. This decision reinforces that registration is contingent on substantive performance, not merely formalities like signatures, impacting property transactions and contractual compliance.
