Yes registration is not compulsory.

Sec-17(1)(b)- family settlement-partition on basis thereof- registration of-necessity of –A writing which merely recites that there has in time past been a partition- not a declaration of will requiring registration, same being a statement of facts- SC’s ruling referred-UAD-2007-UTT-537.

Memorandum of family arrangement doesn’t require registration- unregistered deed of partition doesn’t bar it’s proving of ascertaining the nature of possession- U.A.D.-2006-CRC-37.

Family settlement not required to be compulsorily registered in terms of Sec-17- UAD-2007-SC-713-Sept.- CLJ-2007(7)-SC-390.
