Legal Commentary & Landmark Judgments: Section 78
Section 78 empowers the State Government to prepare a comprehensive table of fees payable for the registration of documents, searches, inspections, and copies.
Calculate registration fees strictly in accordance with your State's notified Section 78 fee schedule; any additional 'processing' or 'expediting' demands by registry intermediaries are illegal.
