Requirement of law is that the assessee should purchase a residential house within the specified period.
exemption will be available where the funds are invested by the assessee towards purchase of new residential property to the extent of capital gain.
Sec 54 is silent about registration.

exemption u/s 45B cannot be denied solely on the ground that the new agricultural land purchased is not wholly owned by the assessee but also by the assesse's son as a co-owner as per sale deed. [ CIT Vs Gurnam singh (2012) 327 ITR 278 (P&H)] So as per the above pronouncement i think that exemption will be allowed.
