Summary
Whether, after impounding an insufficiently stamped instrument, the Court can merely retain it on record or must follow Sections 37, 39 and 42 of the Rajasthan Stamp Act, 1998. HELD- Impounding triggers a mandatory statutory process. If the party agrees to pay duty and penalty, the Court may admit it upon payment; otherwise, it must send the instrument to the Collector for determination. Mere retention is impermissible. Order quashed.
