I have posted the above query regarding the estoppel involved in denying the marriage solemnization when the marraige was registered. It was told that registration is not conclusive proof.

However the issue estoppel can be applied when the party denying the solemnization adds or subtracts new ceremonies as per the community practise over and above what is needed (Saptapadi) and will make the Hindu marraige binding.

When it is a case where there is a total absence of any ceremony or a marraige function then the estoppel cannot be applied.

Does the above proposition appealing to you all.
