What is the time limit for presentation of a document for its registration under the Registration Act, 1908?

A document other than a will must be presented within four months of its registration. In cases of urgent necessity, etc. the period is eight months, but in that case higher fee has to be paid. (Sections 23-26 of the Registration Act, 1908) A copy of a decree or order must be presented within four months from the day on which the decree or order was made, or, where it is appealable, within four months from the day on which it becomes final.
