Documentation Support

Registration is not the finish line — the mutation entry is. We stay with the file until your name is actually on the government record.

Fees

Quoted per engagement based on parcel size and complexity. We confirm the fee in writing before starting — no percentage-of-deal arrangements that would bias our advice.

How it works

The order matters — each step gates the next.

Assemble the file

Revenue extracts, NA order, scheme documents, identity and PAN records for every party, and the co-owner consents. Registration stalls on missing paperwork more than on anything else.

Draft the sale deed

Drafted by an empanelled advocate who carries the legal opinion. We coordinate and review commercially — parcel description, area, consideration, possession and default terms.

Calculate stamp duty

Computed on the applicable Gujarat rate against consideration or jantri value, whichever governs. Underpayment surfaces later as a deficiency notice with penalty.

Register at the sub-registrar

Appointment booked, parties and witnesses coordinated, biometric capture completed. For overseas buyers this runs on the POA instead.

Complete the mutation

Registration alone does not update the revenue record. The mutation entry is what puts your name on the 7/12 — we follow it through until it appears.

Hand over the file

Registered deed, index-II, registration receipt, stamp duty proof and the updated extract showing your name. Kept as one set, because you will need it at exit.

The step most buyers skip

Registering the sale deed and updating the revenue record are two different things.

A registered sale deed proves a transaction happened. The mutation entry is what makes the revenue record — the 7/12 that the next buyer, or a bank, will actually check — show you as the holder. Buyers routinely complete registration, receive their documents, and never follow the mutation through. Years later at resale, the record still names the seller, and what should have been a straightforward transaction becomes a problem.

Confirm it yourself

Once the mutation is through, pull your own 7/12 from AnyRoR and check your name appears. It takes five minutes and it is the only confirmation that actually counts.

Costs beyond the land price

Stamp duty at the applicable Gujarat rate
Registration fee
Advocate fees for drafting and legal opinion
Mutation and revenue record charges
NA conversion charges, where applicable
POA drafting, apostille and courier for overseas buyers

Budget for these at the outset. They are not trivial on a large parcel.

For overseas buyers

POA executed and apostilled in your country of residence
Drafted for this specific transaction — generic POAs get rejected
Payment routed through NRE, NRO or FCNR accounts only
TDS deducted and deposited at the applicable rate
Original POA couriered and adjudicated where required
Registration completed by your attorney on the appointed date

We are consultants, not your advocate

Documentation support is advisory. The legal opinion, the deed drafting and the professional liability sit with empanelled advocates, and you are entitled to instruct your own instead — we would encourage it on any significant purchase. Nothing here substitutes for independent legal advice.
