Section 27:
Registry of transfers of talooks, &c.
All dependent talookdars and other persons
possessing a permanent transferable interest in land intermediate between the Zemindar and the cultivator
are required to register, in the Sherishteh of the Zemindar or superior tenant to whom the rents of their
talooks or tenures are payable transfers of such talooks or tenures, or portions of them, by sale, gift, or
otherwise, as well as all successions thereto, and divisions among heirs in cases of inheritance. And every
Zemindar or superior tenant is required to admit to registry and otherwise give effect to all such transfers,
when made in good fund, and all such successions and divisions. If any Zemindar or superior tenant
refuse to admit to registry or other wise give effect to any such transfer or succession, the transferee or
successor may make application to the Collector and the Collector shall thereupon proceed to enquire into
the case in the manner provided for suits under this Act, and if no sufficient grounds are show for the
refusal, shall pass an order enjoining the Zemindar or superior tenant to admit to registry and otherwise
give effect to such transfer or succession.
Proviso.— Provided that no Zemindar or superior tenant shall be required to admit to registry or give
effect to any division or distribution of the rent payable on account of any such tenure, nor shall any such
division or distribution of rent be valid and binding without the consent in writing of the Zemindar or
superior tenant.
