Document background
A Real Estate Deed is essential for any property transfer in India, serving as the primary legal instrument that evidences the transfer of ownership rights in immovable property. This document is mandatory under Indian law and must comply with the Transfer of Property Act 1882, Registration Act 1908, and various state-specific regulations. The deed is used when transferring any type of immovable property, including land, buildings, apartments, or commercial spaces. It must contain specific details about the property, parties involved, consideration amount, and rights being transferred. The document requires mandatory registration at the Sub-Registrar's office, payment of appropriate stamp duty, and proper execution in the presence of witnesses. Proper drafting and execution of the deed is crucial as it forms the basis of the buyer's title to the property and serves as evidence in future property-related matters.
