Hi sir/madam, MOU means Memorandum of Understanding, it is an understanding between the parties. The notarized document is legally valid and relevant document for the case if the said document is notarized in accordance with the law. No Document can be held invalid for mere non registration. Your Document is fully valid and can be enforced if need arise. Registration is possible by executing deed of confirmation and Penalty will be attracted. Adjudication will have to be done.

The property as you say is of 6 lakhs and you're going to pay 2.51 lakhs (more than 40%) then why can't the company provide you with an registered agreement. MoU is just an Understanding brought into writing where a complex transaction has to be dealt. In a Simple transaction where A is selling and B is buying a plot of land by part payment of money/cost, what's so complicated to enter into an MoU?. A simple Sale Deed with Payment schedule would suffice. At the most what I can say is beware!!!
