Under Section 72 of the Registration Act, 1908, an appeal against an order of the Sub-Registrar refusing to register a document (on grounds other than denial of execution) lies to the Registrar within:
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D.
1. Section 72(1) provides for appeal to the Registrar to whom the Sub-Registrar is subordinate.
2. The appeal must be made within thirty days from the date of the order of refusal.
3. Section 72 does not apply where the refusal is on the ground of denial of execution; in such cases the remedy is an "application" to the Registrar under Section 73, not an appeal.
4. If the Registrar reverses the order and directs registration, the registration takes effect as if the document had been registered when first presented.
