The Supreme Court said in his a landmark judgment that Section 17(1A) of the Registration Act, 1908 is the only exception to the Proviso of Section 49 of Registration Act. Thus, the provision to Section 49 shall apply to the documents other than the ones referred to in Section 17(1A).

The Bench of Justice M.R. Shah and Justice Krishna Murari has further held that an unregistered Agreement to Sell, which is otherwise required to be compulsorily registered, shall be admissible in evidence in a suit for specific performance in terms of Provision to Section 49 of Registration Act.

The only exception to the Provision of Section 49 would be documents mentioned in Section 17(1A) of Registration Act (R. Hemalatha v Kashthuri).
