When  the  document   was   presented   for<\/p>\n<p>registration  before  the third respondent  by  valuing  the<\/p>\n<p>property at Rs.48.50 per sq. ft., the third respondent fixed<\/p>\n<p>the  value at Rs.645\/- per sq. ft. as per the guidelines and<\/p>\n<p>referred   the   matter  to  the  second  respondent   under<\/p>\n<p>Sec.47(A)(2) of the Indian Stamp Act.  Therefrom, an  appeal<\/p>\n<p>was   preferred   by  the  petitioner  before   the   second<\/p>\n<p>respondent.  The second respondent, on enquiry, re-fixed the<\/p>\n<p>value  at  Rs.425\/-  per  sq. ft. and  directed  the  fourth<\/p>\n<p>respondent  to collect the deficit stamp duty together  with<\/p>\n<p>interest  at the rate of 2% per month, and thereafter  only,<\/p>\n<p>the  document  could  be released, pursuant  to  which,  the<\/p>\n<p>fourth  respondent  has also issued  a  notice.   Under  the<\/p>\n<p>circumstances,  this writ petition has  been  brought  forth<\/p>\n<p>before this Court.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      4.The  only  grievance ventilated  by  the  petitioner<\/p>\n<p>before this Court, is that though he is prepared to pay  the<\/p>\n<p>stamp  duty  at the rate of Rs.425\/- as fixed by the  second<\/p>\n<p>respondent, the direction to pay the interest at the rate of<\/p>\n<p>2% from 24.2.2003, is not correct; that he is liable to make<\/p>\n<p>payment  of  interest  only  from  2.5.2006  and  not   from<\/p>\n<p>24.2.2003; that since he has got a right of appeal,  as  per<\/p>\n<p>the  available provision, he preferred an appeal, and  under<\/p>\n<p>the  circumstances,  the order has got  to  be  quashed  and<\/p>\n<p>necessary directions be issued.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      5.The  Court  heard the learned Additional  Government<\/p>\n<p>Pleader on the above contentions.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      6.After  doing so, this Court is unable to agree  with<\/p>\n<p>the  case of the petitioner.  It is not in controversy  that<\/p>\n<p>when  the  document was placed for registration  before  the<\/p>\n<p>third  respondent,  the petitioner valued  the  property  at<\/p>\n<p>Rs.48.50  per  sq. ft.; but, it was re-fixed  by  the  third<\/p>\n<p>respondent  at  Rs.645\/- per sq. ft.,  and  the  matter  was<\/p>\n<p>referred to the second respondent under Sec.47(A)(2) of  the<\/p>\n<p>Indian  Stamp  Act.   When an appeal was  preferred  by  the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner, on enquiry, it was reduced to Rs.425\/-  per  sq.<\/p>\n<p>ft.  by the second respondent, and a direction was given  to<\/p>\n<p>the  fourth  respondent to collect the  deficit  stamp  duty<\/p>\n<p>along with interest at 2% on the said amount from 24.2.2003.<\/p>\n<p>Now, it is pertinent to point out that the second respondent<\/p>\n<p>has  issued  direction for the collection  of  the  interest<\/p>\n<p>amount  only  from  24.2.2003  and  not  from  the  date  of<\/p>\n<p>registration namely 19.6.2000.  The contention put forth  by<\/p>\n<p>the learned Counsel for the petitioner that the interest has<\/p>\n<p>got   to   be   collected  only  from  2.5.2006  cannot   be<\/p>\n<p>countenanced  for the simple reason that it  was  an  appeal<\/p>\n<p>preferred  by the petitioner challenging that order  of  the<\/p>\n<p>third  respondent  before  the  second  respondent.   Merely<\/p>\n<p>because  an  appeal  is  filed, it did  not  mean  that  the<\/p>\n<p>interest rate stipulated by the authority and payable by the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner, would get suspended.  But, in the instant  case,<\/p>\n<p>the  second respondent has applied its mind properly and has<\/p>\n<p>also  directed  for the collection of interest  at  2%  from<\/p>\n<p>24.2.2003.   No  infirmity  is  noticed  by  this  Court  in<\/p>\n<p>applying  the  provision of law as one envisaged  under  the<\/p>\n<p>Indian Stamp Act.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      7.For  the  reasons stated above, this  writ  petition<\/p>\n<p>deserves  an  order  of dismissal, and  accordingly,  it  is<\/p>\n<p>dismissed.  No costs.  Consequently, connected MPs are  also<\/p>\n<p>dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<p>nsv\/<\/p>\n<p>To:\n<\/p>\n<p>1.\tThe Inspector General of Registration<br \/>\n  \tNo.120<br \/>\n\tSanthome High Road,<br \/>\n  \tSanthome<br \/>\n\tChennai 28.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.\tThe District Revenue Officer (Stamps)<br \/>\n  \tCollectorate<br \/>\n\tCoimbatore.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.\tThe Joint Sub Registrar II<br \/>\n  \tTirupur.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.\tThe Special Tahsildar (Stamp)<br \/>\n  \tTirupur.\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Madras High Court M.Velusamy vs The Inspector General Of &#8230; on 12 November, 2007 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS DATED : 12\/11\/2007 CORAM THE HONOURABLE MR.JUSTICE M.CHOCKALINGAM W.P.
