HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE PRATEEK JALAN O R D E R % 28.09.2026
1. The petitioners are intending purchasers of an immovable property, being agriculture land measuring 02 Bigha 08 Biswa, out of Khasra No.69//4 min western side (2-08), situated in the revenue estate of village Pooth Khurd, Delhi-110039 [“subject property”]. They have entered into a Sale Deed dated 27.08.2026 with the present owner, one Ms. Anita.
2. By way of the present petition under Article 226 of the Constitution, the petitioners seek directions upon respondent No. 2 to register the Sale Deed in their favour, and respondent No. 3 to issue a No Objection Certificate [“NOC”] and/or Land Status Report [“LSR”] in their favour, in anticipation of registration of the Sale Deed.
3. Mr. Ashutosh Rana, learned counsel for the petitioners, submits that the only impediment to the grant of NOC/LSR is the pendency of the consolidation proceedings in respect of the village in question.

W.P.(C) 14364/2026 of NCT of Delhi & Anr. [W.P.(C) 12122/2021, decided on 10.11.2023] [hereinafter, “Okaya”] and Smt. Nirmala Devi & Ors. v. Govt. of NCT of Delhi & Anr. [W.P.(C) 4046/2025 and connected matter, decided on 01.04.2025], and several subsequent orders, wherein registration has been permitted, subject to the purchasers being bound by the outcome of the consolidation proceedings. He submits that the petitioners are agreeable to purchasing the subject property on these terms, and without prejudice to the rights and contentions of any third party thereof.
4. It is also noted that the Sale Deed records that the subject property is not subject to any acquisition proceedings.
5. Mr. Lalltaksh Joshi, learned counsel for the respondents, who appears on advance notice, submits that there is no impediment to the issuance of NOC/LSR, and the order in Okaya will be followed in the present case as well.
6. The writ petition, alongwith pending application is, therefore,
disposed of in terms of the aforesaid, with a direction that the registration of the Sale Deed will not be refused on the ground of non-availability of NOC/LSR.
7. The petitioners will, however, file undertakings before the Revenue authority to the effect that they are taking the subject property, subject to the result of the consolidation proceedings, and without prejudice to the rights and contentions of any third-party.
