Transfer of Land and Property

Acquired a property by way of inheritance, purchase or gift etc?

Have you checked whether all Title deeds, revenue records and mutations are in your favor?
Transferring Property does not revolve around just declaring on a simple paper or by word of mouth that the property will be in somebody’s name. There are proper procedures for property transfer and it is only wise to adhere to all these norms and rules.

In most cases, NRI’s or overseas citizens have no trusted representatives in India to aid them in mutation of property or property transfer of property they have inherited or been gifted with. Inheritance could bring along with it the complications of illegal transfers, illegal possession or even illegal sale by close relatives, trusted representatives and third parties.

Mostly overseas citizens has no access or knowledge on correct procedures and formalities involved in transferring of urban residential or commercial or rural agriculture properties. Transfer procedure may vary a great deal not only state to state but also between different types of property.
 
It is worth remembering then that:

  • You must effectively mutate your properties at the earliest in your name after following the proper process of law.
  • Unlike the West, in India it is not an automatic process but often a time consuming and tedious process under law where proper documentation with verification checks have to be submitted to the appropriate land revenue and registry departments.
  • If you want to actively control, build, mortgage or sell your property in India, it has to be effectively in your name.
  • If your inherited property is still in the name of your ancestors then before you can use this asset you must get it transferred in your name.
