[The Land Registration Act, 1925] abandons the fundamental principle that no one can pass a better title than he has, and substitutes for it, though only by implication, the so-called principle of indefeasibility of the registered title.(Megarry and Wade, 4th ed., 1975, p. 1056). 1, record 1, English, - registered%20title

Indefeasibility of title is a convenient description of the immunity from attack by adverse claim to the land or interest in respect of which he is registered, which a registered proprietor enjoys. This conception is central in the system of registration. It does not involve the registered proprietor being protected against any claim whatsoever; there are provisions by which the entry on which he relies may be cancelled or corrected, or he may be exposed to claims "in personam".(Di Castri, "Registration of Title to Land", 1987, p. 17-749). 1, record 3, English, - indefeasibility%20of%20title
