it is taxable only under the head of income from House property.

There is no stipulation that a registered conveyance deed is required to treat a person a owner of a property for the purpose of assessing income under the head "income from house property". If a person has exclusive possession of a property in his own right, he may be treated as an owner for the above purpose.
