You signed a rental agreement, business contract, or partnership deed, but forgot to register it! 😨 Does that mean it’s useless in court? Can an unregistered agreement be enforced? Let’s decode this legal puzzle! 🕵️♂️👇
✅ YES! An Unregistered Agreement Can Be Valid, But…
🔹 If It’s on Proper Stamp Paper – A contract on adequate stamp duty may still be enforceable. 📜
🔹 If It’s Duly Signed by Both Parties – A signed document shows mutual consent. ✍️
🔹 If Consideration Was Exchanged – Payment or action taken under the agreement makes it stronger. 💰

🏆 How to Make Your Agreement Legally Strong?
✅ Register It If Required – If your agreement deals with property, long-term contracts, or high-value deals, get it registered! 🏛️
✅ Use Proper Stamp Duty – Insufficient stamping can make an agreement inadmissible in court. 🖋️
✅ Get It Notarized – Though notarization doesn’t replace registration, it adds legal weight. 📑
