Introduction:

Registration refers to the recording of the contents of a document with a Registering Officer appointed by the Government. The main purpose of registration is to ensure information about all deals are recorded and maintained apart from giving the document its authenticity. It gives information to the people regarding legal rights and obligations arising or affecting a particular property. The registered documents may afterwards be of legal importance, and also aid in preventing fraud. The process of registering a document is done under the provisions of the Registration Act, 1908. The main objects of the law of registration are –

to provide a conclusive proof of genuineness of documents;
to afford publicity of transaction in respect of properties;
to prevent fraud;
to afford facility for ascertaining whether a property has already been dealt with; and
to afford security of the title deeds and facility of proving titles in case the original deeds are lost or destroyed.

WITNESSES;

Licence is a grant of a right to do something upon an immovable without creating interest in the property. A Licence is defined under Sec.52 of the Indian Easements Act, 1882, which reads as under: “Where one person grants to another, or to a definite number of other persons, right to do, or continue to do, in or upon the immovable property of the grantor, something which would, in the absence of such right be unlawful and such right does not amount to an easement or an interest in property, the right is called Licence”. The essential distinction between a Lease and a Licence is that in a Lease, there is transfer of interest in the property while in the case of licence, there is no such transfer although the licensee acquires only a personal right to occupy the property.
