ORDER
The Writ Petition is filed challenging the impugned refusal check slip dated 20.04.2026.
2. The petitioners presented a sale agreement. The same is now refused to be registered on two grounds. Firstly, it is stated that there is a prior sale agreement, which remains pending and it has not been cancelled. The second reason that is mentioned is that the petitioners have not produced the original of the parent document relied upon by the petitioners.
3. The learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that both the reasons are unsustainable.
4. The learned Additional Government Pleader appearing on behalf of the respondent would submit that in view of Section 34-C of the Registration (Tamil Nadu Amendment) Act, 2025, without production of the original document or non-traceable certificate, the registration cannot be effected.
