Functions of Andhra Pradesh Registration
Here are the main functions of the Andhra Pradesh Registration Department:
** Registration of documents: The department is responsible for registering all documents that are required to be registered under the Registration Act, 1908. This includes documents such as sale deeds, gift deeds, lease deeds, mortgages, and wills.
** Collection of stamp duty: The department is also responsible for collecting stamp duty on all documents that are registered. Stamp duty is a tax that is levied on certain types of documents, such as sale deeds and gift deeds.
** Maintenance of registers: The department maintains a number of registers, which contain details of all the documents that have been registered. These registers are used to keep track of the ownership of property and to provide evidence of title.
** Providing copies of registered documents: The department provides copies of registered documents to the public. These copies can be used for a variety of purposes, such as proving ownership of property or obtaining a loan from a bank.
** Enforcement of the Registration Act: The department is responsible for enforcing the provisions of the Registration Act. This includes investigating complaints of non-registration of documents and taking action against those who violate the law.
In Indian law, although an affidavit may be taken as proof of the facts stated therein, the Courts have no jurisdiction to admit evidence by way of affidavit. Affidavit is treated as “evidence” within the meaning of Section 3 of the Evidence Act.[2] However, it was held by the Supreme Court that an affidavit can be used as evidence only if the Court so orders for sufficient reasons, namely, the right of the opposite party to have the deponent produced for cross-examination (Khandesh Spg & Wvg Mills CO. Ltd. Vs Rashtriya Girni Kamgar Sangh, citation 1960 AIR571, 1960 SCR(2) 841). Therefore, an affidavit cannot ordinarily be used as evidence in absence of a specific order of the Court.
What is this affidavit to be declared in the procedure of Firm registration? What does it mean by “qurejing Jamuna” in the official format of the affidavit?
