1975-ம் வருட தமிழ்நாடு சங்கங்கள் பதிவுச் சட்டம் பிரிவு 44(4)-ன்கீழ் செயல்படாத சங்கங்களுக்கான அறிவிக்கை
The Tamil Nadu Registration Department, through Notification Na.Ka. No. 823/E1/2014 published in the Tamil Nadu Gazette on 26 March 2014, removed the listed inactive societies from the register under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975. The notification covers societies that had not filed required statements for more than three years despite repeated notices, and allows an affected society to appeal to the Head of the Registration Department within one year from publication.
What the notification does
The Tamil Nadu Registration Department Notification Na.Ka. No. 823/E1/2014, published on 26 March 2014, records the removal of listed inactive societies from the register. The action was taken under section 44(4) of the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975.
Why the registrations were removed
The Tamil Nadu Registration Department notification states that the societies had failed to file statements required under section 16(3)(b) for more than three years. They were therefore treated as inactive societies under section 44(3).
Key points are:
- Two notices had already been sent to the societies.
- A third notice was sent to all listed societies under office reference Na.Ka. No. 3383/E1/2013, dated 12 September 2013.
- The societies did not make the required filings for more than three months after that notice.
- Their registrations were consequently removed, and the removal was published in the Gazette.
Who is affected
Notification Na.Ka. No. 823/E1/2014 directly affects the societies identified by registration number, name and address in its schedule. The supplied list contains 58 societies registered in 2007, including residents welfare societies, water catchment associations, farmers associations, women’s organisations, traders and workers associations, educational and charitable societies, and other welfare bodies.
The listed addresses are mainly in Kancheepuram and Tiruvallur districts, including Tiruttani, Pallipet, Uthukottai, Kancheepuram and Tiruvallur. Members, office bearers and persons dealing with a listed society should check the exact registration number and name because similar organisations may exist in the same locality.
Appeal option
The Tamil Nadu Registration Department notification permits a listed society, if it wishes, to appeal to the Head of the Registration Department under section 44(5). The appeal must be made within one year from the publication of the notification.
Relevance to property matters
Notification Na.Ka. No. 823/E1/2014 does not announce a land classification, land use change or property transfer. Its relevance to a buyer, owner or professional arises only where a listed society is involved in property ownership, management or a proposed transaction. In that situation, the society’s removal from the register and any appeal should be checked before relying on its claimed status.
