Sale Deed & Registration

Sale deed is a legal document that contains details of transfer of property ownership from a seller to a buyer. This is one of the most valuable legal documents while purchasing or selling a property. It is executed at the time of actual transfer of property ownership at a sub-registrars’ office. This document needs to be registered mandatorily and is governed by the Registration Act.

We will need copy of the previous sale deed, buyer(s) & seller(s) details, transaction value and copy of Mutation. After placing the order, you can upload the scanned copy of these documents in the order page.

Stamp duty, cess and surcharge is 5% of the total consideration or Circle Rates whichever is higher as per the prescribed Circle Rates for the city as well as the villages. An exemption of 1.25% in the case property being registered in women's name. Additionally, there would be a 2% registration fee. There will be incidental expenses such as scanning charges etc. Kindly note, the legal fees and professional fees does not include stamp duties, registration fee or any miscellaneous expenses. These expenses have to be paid as per actual by you.

The lawyer will take an appointment with the sub-registrar office on a day convenient to you and will be present throughout to handhold the process. On the registration date along with DD you have to bring original and photo copies of the following documents:

• You need to carry three separate DDs for Stamp Duty+ Cess, Surcharge and registration fee in favour of the concerned Sub-registrar.
• Current year tax paid receipt
• MDDA approved plans, mutation standing in the names of the seller/s.
• Seller(s) previous sale deed.

Both seller, buyer and two witnesses (above 22 years) should appear with I.D documents on the registration date.

The buyer has to deduct TDS at 1% of the total sale consideration. Note that the buyer is required to deduct TDS, not the seller. No TDS is deducted if sale consideration is less than Rs 50lakhs. If instalments are being paid TDS has to be deducted on each instalment. Tax is to be paid on the entire sale amount. For example, if you have bought a house at Rs 55lakh, you have to pay tax on Rs 55 lakh and not on Rs 5lakh (i.e. Rs 55lakh - Rs 50lakh). This is applicable even when there is more than 1 buyer or seller. AssetAssist team consisting of Chartered Accountants will provide you necessary help to get the needful done.
