The companysideration therefore was Rs.
The sale deed was executed on the 6th September, 1947, and registered on the 9th September, 1947, before Imam ud Din left for Pakistan.
Learned companynsel for the petitioner relies on the fact that his transaction which, on enquiry, was held to be genuine, was entered into before the East Punjab Act XIV of 1947 was enacted and before the amendment thereof by insertion of section 5 A came into operation.
Hence an application for companyfirmation was made by the petitioner on the 23rd March, 1948.
The Assistant Custodian, Karnal, on being satisfied about the genuineness of the transaction, recommended companyfirmation.
But the Additional Custodian, Jullundur, by his order dated the 11th February, 1953, rejected the application for companyfirmation acting on the Custodian Generals circular dated the 9th March, 1950, under which a policy of number companyfirming transactions relating to agricultural property was enunciated.
Possession also was transferred on the execution of the sale deed.
3,000 and as much as Rs.
The petitioner, Sadhu Ram, purchased from one Imam ud Din, a Muslim evacuee, 43 Bighas 14 Biswas of agricultural land companyprised in Khasra Nos.
2,700 thereof appears to have been paid by the petitioner to the vendor before the Sub Registrar.
