Section 54
Registered document– In terms of section 54 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, the transfer of immoveable property of the value of hundred rupees and upwards can be made only by registered instrument, whereas in terms of section 49 of the Registration Act, 1908, a document, which is required to be registered under the said Act, can operate to create any right, title or interest in any immoveable property, only if it is so registered. However, section 47 of the Registration Act, clearly lays down that a registered document shall operate from the time from which it would have commenced to operate if no registration thereof had been required or made, and not from the time of its registration. ...Muhammad Mansha =VS= Industrial Development Bank of Pakistan, (Civil), 2020 [9 LM (SC) 44] ....View Full Judgment
