Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the order of the District Deputy Registrar Cooperative Societies under Section 5A of the Maharashtra Ownership Flats (Regulation of the Promotion of Construction, Sale, Management and Transfer) Act, 1963, allowing respondent No.3 to obtain a unilateral conveyance deed despite the appellants' claims of prior termination of an agreement. The Court clarified that the jurisdiction to entertain such applications lies with the competent authority under the Act, and objections regarding locus standi and maintainability were dismissed. The appeal was therefore dismissed, affirming the authority's decision.
