When you need it

For an agricultural-land purchase, the final registered deed matching the revenue record and possession. Needs the revenue village, tehsil, khewat/khatauni, khasra numbers, area/share and jamabandi reference — a street address isn't enough.

Disclose any cultivator/tenant, standing-crop handling, and known acquisition/charge/litigation. Mutation is a later revenue consequence, not a substitute. In Punjab, deed-vs-revenue mismatches cause major disputes.

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

PUNJAB: 5% (Sch.I-A/23) + 1% Social Infra Cess + 1% PIDB + 0.25% SIDF = 7.25%, on the higher of consideration/Collector rate; reg. fee 1% (cap Rs 2,00,000); facilitation Rs 1,000/3,000/5,000 (≤10L/≤30L/>30L); pasting Rs 200. CHANDIGARH: 5%; reg. fee 1% (cap Rs 10,000); pasting Rs 20; lease-transfer 3%. No cess/board fee/women's concession — the '6%' figure isn't in the Administration's schedule; confirm at the Sub-Registrar. Duty due at execution (s.17); unstamped = inadmissible until duty+10x penalty (s.35).

Registration

Compulsorily registrable (Registration Act 1908 s.17): correctly identified, executed by competent parties, presented within four months (s.23), extendable only on s.25's limited terms.

Notarisation

Doesn't replace compulsory registration — execute and register the deed; needed only if a separate affidavit requires it.

Witnesses

Two witnesses are prudent and customary for execution/registration practice.
