2. The Hon’ble Supreme Court in Satya Pal Anand v. State of
M.P., [(2016) 10 SCC 767] has held that that the power to cancel the
registration is a substantive matter and in the absence of any express
provision on that behalf, it is not open to assume that the Registering
Officer would be competent to cancel the registration of the documents
in question. Therefore, for cancellation of registered documents, the
State of Tamil Nadu brought an amendment to the Registration Act,
vide the Registration (Tamil Nadu Second Amendment) Act, 2021. By
this amendment Act, Sections 22B, 77A, 77B, 81A and 81B were
inserted in the Registration Act. Section 77A provides the power to the
Registrar to cancel registered documents, if it is found to be in
contravention of sections 22A and 22B.
