When you need it

For moving a booked apartment/plot/shop's contractual rights to another person before final conveyance — not yet a sale deed. Separates the transferor's promoter-facing rights from the transferee's payment obligations, instalments, transfer charges, and the promoter's approval procedure.

RERA s.13/s.19 still matter — RERA gives no universal right to transfer regardless of the allotment terms.

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

Depends on the assignment's legal effect and consideration — not a completed conveyance merely because the unit is identified; verify the Punjab/Chandigarh article. Stamp before signing (s.17); if unclear, get it adjudicated by the Collector first (s.31). Unstamped: inadmissible until duty+penalty paid (s.35).

Registration

Not automatic here — reassess if a registrable interest transfers, or the agreement requires registration.

Notarisation

Not required here; it doesn't replace needed registration.

Witnesses

Both sign; two witnesses help, promoter process permitting.

Where the law requires the Transferee to deduct tax at source from the assignment consideration, the Transferee deducts it, deposits it within the time allowed and gives the Transferor the certificate; tax properly deducted and deposited counts as payment of that much of the consideration.

  1. 3. PROMOTER APPROVAL

Transfer charges: Transferor bears promoter transfer charges.

Future instalments: Transferee pays instalments falling due after effective transfer.

Pre-completion possession/access: Transferee receives no possession or project access merely from this assignment. Special terms: Original allotment documents to be handed over after substitution.
