1975-ம் ஆண்டு தமிழ்நாடு சங்கங்கள் பதிவு சட்டம், பிரிவு 44(4)-ன் கீழ் செயல்படாத சங்கங்களை பதிவிலிருந்து நீக்கம் செய்தல் பற்றிய அறிவிக்கை
The Tamil Nadu Government, through the Tamil Nadu Gazette's Notifications by Heads of Departments, published notification reference Na.Ka.No. 6897/A2/2010 on October 15, 2014, removing 50 societies from the register as defunct registered societies. The societies had not filed annual returns with the Periyakulam District Registrar's Office for more than three years and did not provide an explanation or returns after notice.
What the notification does
Notification reference Na.Ka.No. 6897/A2/2010, published by the Tamil Nadu Government under Notifications by Heads of Departments on October 15, 2014, removes the names of 50 societies from the register. The action was taken under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975.
The listed societies had failed to file annual returns with the Periyakulam District Registrar's Office for more than three years. An explanation was requested through Tamil Nadu Gazette No. 39/2011 dated October 19, 2011. More than three months passed without the office receiving either an explanation or the outstanding annual returns, so the societies were treated as defunct registered societies.
Who is affected
The notification directly affects the societies listed with serial numbers 1 to 50. Their registration entries are mainly from 2002 and cover organisations located in places including Periyakulam, Uthamapalayam, Theni, Andipatti, Bodinayakanur, Cumbum, Gudalur, Devaram, Anaipatti, Kamayagoundanpatti and Surulipatti.
The list includes:
- Women's welfare and development societies.
- Consumer protection organisations.
- Trade and occupational welfare associations.
- Rural education and agricultural development organisations.
- Community and multipurpose associations.
Examples include Periyakulam City Two-Wheeler Workshop Owners Welfare Association, Theni Allinagaram Goat Meat Traders Welfare Association, Mahatma Consumer Rights Protection Centre, Cumbum, and Rural Education for Woman Agricultural Development.
Key provisions
- The names of all 50 listed societies are removed from the societies register.
- Removal follows failure to submit annual returns for more than three years.
- The societies did not respond to the earlier request for an explanation within the period described in the notification.
- Each entry identifies the society by serial number, registration number and year, name and address.
- Registration numbers shown run from 361/2002 to 411/2002, with the individual numbers reproduced as printed in the notification.
Relevance to property matters
Notification reference Na.Ka.No. 6897/A2/2010 concerns the registration status of societies. It does not describe any transfer, acquisition, reclassification or change of ownership of land. A buyer, owner or professional may still need to note it when a listed society appears as a party in records or documents, because the notification states that the society's name was removed from the register.
