The State Of Bihar & Ors vs Smt. Tetra Devi on 19 May, 2016
7. I have heard the learned counsel for the
parties and gone through the materials on record
from which it is clear that a reference can be made
under Section 47(A)(1) of the Indian Stamp Act,
1899, with regard to determination of the
classification of the property, only before
registration of the sale deed in question and not
thereafter, as is clear from Section 47(1)(A) of the
Indian Stamp Act, 1899 & moreover, this aspect of
the matter stands covered by a judgment,
rendered by a coordinate Bench of this Court in the
case of Shahnaz Begam (supra), as also by the one
rendered by the learned Division Bench of this
Court in case of Tetra Devi (supra). This Court finds
that admittedly, the Respondent No. 5, without any
authority or jurisdiction, has referred the matter to
the Respondent No. 3, under Section 47(A)(1) of
the Indian Stamp Act, 1899, after more than seven
years which is itself contrary to the mandate of
Section 47(A)(1) of the Indian Stamp Act, 1899. In
any view of the matter, even the Respondent No. 3

has got no power to suo motu review the
correctness of the market value of the property
which is the subject matter of the instrument in
question & the duty payable thereon, after a lapse
of two years from the date of registration of such
instrument.
