 Additional Valuable Points:

Legal Validity:

  Even though these documents are not mandatory for registration, registering them can add an extra layer of legal validity and protection in case of disputes.

Evidentiary Value:

  Registered documents carry more evidentiary value in court. In case of disputes, having a registered document can make the legal process smoother.

Clarity in Transactions:

  Registering documents ensures that all parties involved are clear about the terms and conditions, reducing the risk of misunderstandings.

Public Record:

  Registration creates a public record of the transaction, which can be helpful for future reference and for verifying the authenticity of the document.

Proof of Ownership:

  For property-related documents, registration serves as proof of ownership and can prevent potential fraud or multiple sales of the same property.

Avoiding Future Disputes:

  - Registering documents related to family partitions, wills, and leases can help avoid future disputes among family members or between landlords and tenants.

By understanding which documents do not require mandatory registration and the benefits of registering them voluntarily, you can make informed decisions to protect your legal and property rights.
