The Bombay High Court recently held that an instrument, viz. Memorandum of Family Arrangement executed among family members recording an antecedent title to the immovable property does not amount to a conveyance or creation of any new right in such immovable property. The Court further held that such a family arrangement does not require registration. INDUSLAW's Sourasubha Ghosh and Anirban Sen analyse this Bombay High Court judgement.
