Ekk Infrastructure Limited. vs. Registering Authority
Held
The Court directed the Registering Authority to consider the petitioner's application for temporary registration expeditiously, within two weeks, upon submission of the Certificate of Incorporation and a necessary affidavit.
Facts
EKK Infrastructure Limited, a company with a GST registration in Mahe, purchased a vehicle in Kerala and applied for temporary registration to transport it to Mahe. The Registering Authority denied the temporary registration, citing the lack of proof of residential address at Mahe.
Key Issues
The key legal issue was whether a company's Certificate of Incorporation and an affidavit would suffice as proof for obtaining temporary vehicle registration for transport to another state, in the absence of a residential address proof.
