Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the findings of the Punjab and Haryana High Court regarding the validity of a consent decree in Civil Suit No.630 of 1980, dismissing the appellants' challenge on the grounds of collusion. The Court clarified the interpretation of Section 17(2)(vi) of the Registration Act, 1908, stating that a decree concerning immovable property not involved in the original suit requires registration. The appeal was dismissed as the appellants failed to substantiate their claims and did not participate in the trial proceedings.
