If the sale deed is not registered then there would be a cloud on your title in the event of the property becoming the subject matter of a law suit.
you should get your sale deed registered from the society. however, you have a bare chance of evading from payment of your stamp duty and registration fee provided the lease cum sale deed is perused.
