Whethere a criminal case against presentor of sale deed on behalf of company is maintainable or not? Particularly in that case when authorised signatories on behalf company are different person.

In my opinion company and the managing director along with the presenters of sale deed will be held responsible.

Criminal offences are committed by individuals so if presenter has committed any offence though he may be authorized signatory of a company, is liable to be prosecuted under law of land in his personal capacity.

The presenter if signed the deed can definitely be prosecuted if the charges relates only to the forgery or fraud of that document.

Dear All, In this case the presentor has just presented the documents before the Sub Registrar Office for registration only. He has no role as a authorised signatory. Authorised signatory are different persons. Charges are not related to the forgery or fraud of the documents, charges are just cheating by company.
