Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's Second Appeal, affirming the First Appellate Court's finding that the unregistered and unstamped document dated 27.10.1981 did not confer any rights to the appellant over the suit property. The Court reiterated that a document must be duly executed and registered to create enforceable rights in property, as per the Transfer of Property Act. Consequently, the appellant's claim of ownership was rejected, and the original owners were entitled to evict him from the premises.
