Power of Registrar to cancel registration in certain circumstances

(1) Notwithstanding anything contained in section 14, if the Registrar has reason to believe with respect to any Money-Lender holding registration for the area within his jurisdiction that such Money-Lender has been guilty of any act or conduct for which the Registrar might under section 10 have refused the grant or renewal of the registration and which act or conduct was not brought to the notice at the time of grant or renewal of such registration, or that such Money-Lender has contravened any of the provisions of this Act after the grant or renewal of such registration and if in the opinion of the Registrar such contravention makes such Money-Lender unfit for carrying on the business of money-lending, the Registrar may, after holding such inquiry as he deems fit and after giving to such Money-Lender a reasonable opportunity of being heard, by an order in writing, cancel such registration. (2) A Money-Lender whose registration has been cancelled under sub-section (1) shall be disqualified for holding registration in the State for such period, not exceeding three years as the Registrar may specify in the order of cancellation of his registration. (3) A Money-Lender who is aggrieved by the order of the Registrar under this section may file an appeal within a period of sixty days from the date of receipt of such order to the Registrar General, whose decision shall be final.
