If a society’s registration is cancelled by the High Court, it cannot legally make contracts. Once the registration is cancelled, the society ceases to exist as a legal entity and loses its legal personality. As a result, it has no capacity to enter into new contracts, own property, or sue or be sued in its own name.
Any contract the society attempts to enter into after its registration is cancelled is legally void (a nullity), because a non-existent legal entity cannot be a party to an agreement. After cancellation, the society’s affairs are typically wound up by a liquidator, and only actions necessary to the winding-up are permitted, not the creation of new contractual obligations.
