When you need it

Document a loan against property: the credit agreement sets commercial terms; a separate mortgage/security instrument secures it. State facility type, amount, interest structure, tenure, permitted end use, fees, prepayment, default and security form — don't label it a mortgage unless it meets mortgage formalities.

RBI's floating-rate EMI framework requires disclosing benchmark-reset impact and options, with transparent charges — share the Key Fact Statement too. Keeping the two instruments separate lets each carry its own stamp/registration treatment.

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

Stamp under whichever article fits the agreement's actual contents (Punjab/Chandigarh) — separate from the mortgage's, title-deed memorandum's or hypothecation's own duty. Buy on/before signing (s.17); unclear article, get Collector adjudication (s.31). Under-stamped, it's inadmissible until the deficiency and penalty are paid (s.35).

Registration

No property interest transferred by itself. Register the separate mortgage when s.59/s.17 requires it.

Notarisation

Not required unless the lender has its own attestation process.

Witnesses

Contractual — s.59's two-witness rule binds the mortgage, not every loan agreement.

LEGAL BASIS

In Punjab the holder of a site allotted by a development authority cannot transfer any right in it, a mortgage included, without the authority's previous permission (section 43(7) of the Punjab Regional and Town Planning and Development Act, 1995), and the authority gives that permission only to the allottee on its file. In Chandigarh a leasehold site needs the Estate Officer's permission to mortgage, a notified service under the Right to Service notification of 30 March 2026, and the Estate Office's checklist asks for an affidavit with it, which carries its own stamp duty. A mortgage by deposit of title deeds does not show in a Punjab Non-Encumbrance Certificate, which is why lenders also record the security in the Central Registry of Securitisation Asset Reconstruction and Security Interest of India.
