When you need it

For when a deal is taking shape and the fee needs settling before the main agreement. Fixes the fee against the transaction value, splits it into instalments tied to named events, covers price renegotiation and TDS, sets late-payment interest, and states what happens if the deal fails.

What follows is written for Punjab and Chandigarh. It states the position there rather than describing how it varies, so the amounts below are the ones that apply — worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office, because rates change. If the property is anywhere else in India, none of this is yours.

Stamp duty

Fixes a fee, no property interest — Article 5, Schedule I-A, Stamp Act 1899 (PB/CH), a small fixed sum. Stamp before signing (s.17); Sub-Registrar/e-stamp vendor gives the figure; Collector adjudicates (ss.31-32).

Registration

Not registrable: s.17, Registration Act, 1908 needs a Rs 100+ property interest created; this creates none. Optional under s.18, pointless.

Notarisation

Not required — witnesses already prove signing.

Background

A. The transaction concerns the property at House No. 1147, Sector 70, SAS Nagar (Mohali), Punjab 160071, in Punjab: A two-storey house on a plot of 250 square yards, with a covered car porch ("the Property").

B. The Broker introduced Harpreet Kaur Gill to the Client, and they propose a transaction concerning the Property of a value of ₹90,00,000 (Rupees Ninety Lakh only) ("the Transaction").


1. The fee

1.1 The Client will pay the Broker a fee of ₹1,35,000 (Rupees One Lakh Thirty Five Thousand only) for its services in the Transaction ("the Fee").

1.2 The Fee stays at the amount stated, whatever price or rent is finally agreed.

1.3 Goods and services tax is payable on the Fee in addition to it, and the Broker will issue a tax invoice for each instalment.

2. When the Fee is paid

2.1 The first instalment of ₹67,500 (Rupees Sixty Seven Thousand Five Hundred only) falls due on the signing of the agreement to sell or the tenancy agreement. The second instalment of ₹67,500 (Rupees Sixty Seven Thousand Five Hundred only) falls due on the signing of the agreement to sell or the tenancy agreement.

2.2 Each instalment is payable within 7 days after the event on which it falls due.

3. Tax deducted at source
