Legal Question in Criminal Law in India

India:

During the transfer of a vehicle, if the seller completes all his documents, signs the transfer forms and gives the possession of the vehicle to the buyer, and as a receipt takes the purchaser's signatures on a 100 Rs. notarized stamp paper.But the buyer transfers the vehicle after 4 months, paying even the penalties due to delay.

In such a situation, who is the culprit held for the delay in transfer?(the seller did complete every formality and gave all the documents to the purchaser)

Usually in a transfer both seller and buyer will have obligation to inform authorities. Getting a receipt/ notarized document will save the seller from any third party claims.
