The purchasers in the auction executed a registered GPA in favour of a partnership firm by name Pioneer Habitation Projects assigning saleable rights to the said partnership firm. 6. It is submitted that the petitioners herein purchased plot bearing No.18 and part of plot bearing No.19 situated at Gagillapur, Qutubullapur Mandal, vide registered sale deed bearing document No.25474/2008. It is also submitted that petitioners obtained loan from Syndicate Bank. It is further submitted that certain private individuals sold the plots in the layout by showing non-existing plot numbers and they were registered by respondent No.4 thereby causing double registrations. The said registered sale deeds were utilized for raising loans from the Central Bank by creating charge over the properties sold by the private individuals. It is pointed out that the sale deeds by which the plots were purchased (fraudulent transactions) were mortgaged for loans and defaulted. That Central Bank of India initiated steps under the Sarfesi Act, as charge was created by way of depositing the sale deeds in the Central Bank of India. 7. It is submitted that petitioners are put to loss because of the actions of the private individuals who fraudulently sold away the properties which in fact were purchased by the petitioners from their vendors who were the higher bidders in auction. This being the gist of the entire case, the petitioners are seeking a direction not to register other properties in the layout. 8. Learned counsel invited the attention of this Court to the document annexed at page No.30 of the writ affidavit papers and submitted that properties in plot Nos.11, 12 and 5 in Column No.3 of the list of prohibited properties, the extent of the land prohibited by the Court stay is 283.86 yards and 156.57 yards. On perusal of the contents at page No.30, it is observed that the said properties in Sy.No.226-A are captioned as “covered by the Court Stay”. 9. The specific grievance of the petitioners is that the plots in the layout covered by the Court stay order cannot be registered. 10. On the other hand, learned counsel appearing on behalf of respondents (authorities) contended that the Sub- Registrar, Quthbullapur entertained the document for registration as it was not brought to the notice of the Sub- Registrar with regard to the stay granted on the said properties. 11.
