Year to year, in s. 17(d) of the Registration Act, 1908, would mean that it relates to a year according to the 'British Calender' and not according to vernacular calendar. If this position is accepted, the lease deed of immovable property, from year to year, would become compulsorily registrable, if it is for a British calendar year, and not for a vernacular year. The words 'yearly rent' will have to be interpreted in the same manner as the words 'year to year' are interpreted, viz., the yearly rent according to British and not vernacular calendar, Dimili Narayana v. Dimili Stayanarayan, (1975) 2 Andh WR 226: (1975) 1 APLJ 372: 1975 ALT 190.
