Sir,
The Sub Registrar Office in Chennai advised me that there is a Rule 69A in the Tamil Nadu Transfer of Property Act and Rules to the effect that an Agreement to Sell stands automatically cancelled if the relevant Sale Deed pertaining to the flat to be sold, is not signed within 60 days of the date of the Agreement to Sell. The Registrar therefore insisted upon dropping of some sections of the draft Agreement to Sell as being redundant in the context of the above provision for automatic cancellation the Agreement to Sell.She registered the Agreement to sell only after the dropping of the provisions she considered redundant. I have searched the internet in vain to find this Rule 69A. Can you please help and provide me with the text of this Rule 69A or any other rule in the Tamil Nadu Act which provides for such automatic cancellation. Thanks for your kind help.

Go to a law book shop ask for a latest RULE BOOK is the only way to resolve the issue.You could have very well asked for it from that sub-registrar.
To my knowledge, S.69A T.P.A. HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH AGREEMENT TO SALES.
