No. An Agreement of Sale–cum–General Power of Attorney (AGPA), even if registered and coupled with possession, does not by itself convey ownership of immovable property. In law, transfer of title can be effected only through a duly executed and registered sale deed. An AGPA may create contractual rights or authorize acts on behalf of the owner, but it does not amount to a conveyance of ownership. Courts have consistently held that “GPA/Agreement sales” do not confer title and cannot substitute a registered sale deed. At best, such a document may support a claim for specific performance, subject to limitation and proof. Therefore: - Title remains with the original owner until a registered sale deed is executed, - Mutation or possession based on AGPA does not cure the defect of title, and - Any subsequent transactions based solely on AGPA carry significant legal risk. For clear and marketable title, execution and registration of a proper sale deed is indispensable.
