Registration Act 1908 mandates registration of every single property bought in India. Non registration of documents, required to be compulsory registered, attracts penal provision under the Registration Act 1908.

The documents are registered for the purpose of conservation of evidence, assurance of title, publicity of documents and prevention of fraud. Also, registration helps an intending purchaser to know if the title deeds of a particular property have been deposited with any person or a financial institution for the purpose of obtaining loan / advance against the security of that property.

Section 17 of the Registration Act 1908 lays down different categories of documents for which registration is compulsory. The documents relating to the following transactions of immovable properties are required to be compulsorily registered:

• Gift deed for immovable property
• Lease/ rent agreement of immovable property for any term exceeding one year
• Instruments which create or extinguish any right or title to or in an immovable property of a value of more than one hundred rupees

Documents shall be registered in the office of sub-registrar within whose jurisdiction the property is situated.

No, possession of the property cannot be given without registration. The conveyance of the flat/ unit/ property is complete once the title document is executed in favour of the buyer before the Sub Registrar after paying applicable stamp duty and registration charges.

At Ashiana Housing we, as a policy, do not hand over the possession without registration of sale deed/sub lease deed.

Stamp duty and registration charges are applicable on registration.

It is a type of tax which is paid for the transaction performed by way of document or instrument under the provisions of the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 and/or State Stamp Act.
