Law Settled:

  1. Rejection of Plaint under Order VII Rule 11 CPC:
    A plaint can only be rejected at the threshold if it does not disclose a cause of action, is barred by any law, or is deficient in valuation or court fee. The examination must be confined to the plaint itself. Where even one cause of action survives, the plaint cannot be rejected in its entirety. [Central Bank of India v. Prabha Jain, 2025 INSC 95]

  2. Unregistered Agreement to Sell & Power of Attorney:
    Unregistered agreements to sell and powers of attorney cannot confer title or interest in immovable property. Such documents are inadmissible for the purpose of transferring property rights under Sections 17, 23, and 49 of the Registration Act, 1908 and Section 54 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882. [S. Kaladevi v. V.R. Somasundaram, (2010) 5 SCC 401; Suraj Lamp & Industries (P) Ltd. v. State of Haryana, (2012) 1 SCC 656]

  4. Triable Issues & Civil Court Jurisdiction:
    Questions relating to title, validity of sale deeds, and redemption of mortgages are triable issues and must be adjudicated by civil courts, not revenue authorities. Mutation entries do not confer title. [Suraj Bhan v. Financial Commissioner, (2007) 6 SCC 186]
