5. The signature of the person for the time being holding the office of the Municipal Commissioner for the [City of Bombay] to a transfer of any debenture standing in the name of the Corporation or of the Municipal Commissioner on behalf of the Corporation shall be valid and sufficient, notwithstanding that such person may not have held the said office at the time when such debenture was issued, transferred, assigned or endorsed to the name of the Corporation or the Municipal Commissioner as aforesaid.
