Is the award of LAO under sec 11(2) of LA Act 1894, after an agreement reached between the LAO and the interested persons,
a non-testamentary instrument?

From the site, I have observed that you have a lot of curiosity in finding out answers. A very good quality. But i feel you should do some research on your own instead of posting your questions.
A simple google search or any commentary on the Act will enable you to find answers.
Will is a testamentary document. Award of LAO is non testamentary document.

sec 11(4) of LA Act says:
"(4) Notwithstanding anything contained in the Registration Act, 1908 (16 of 1908), no agreement made under sub-section (2) shall be liable to registration under that Act.] "
This is the agreement I have referred to in my query. Since it is particularly mentioned in the Act that the agreement of 11(2)(which is bilateral) is not registrable, does it mean that the award made under 11(1)(which is made unilaterally by the LAO) is registrable?
