General Power of Attorney - registered but has inconsitent dates General Power of Attorney - registered but has inconsitent dates

10 months ago

The General Power of Attorney has been prepared on Stamp paper and notarized. A sale agreement has been registered along with this General Power of Attorney with the Sub registrar's office. So I assume the General Power of Attorney is properly registered.

Now the question is - The contents of the General Power of Attorney document is referring to an event , date of registration of original sale deed of earlier owner as 21-Jan-1997. However the General Power of Attorney was notarized on 21-Oct-1996
Given the GPA document has a date that is earlier than an event described in the document does the GPA become invalid in court of law?

A.Dear Client,

In the given situation as explained by you in your query, it is to inform you that GPA is a document that is executed in favor of an Attorney empowering him to do or act or deed on behalf of the Exececutor on the basis of that document. If the GPA is executed mentioning an act which is done earlier before the execution of the POA then such a document is invalid being defunct and unenforceable in the eyes of the law.
