When you need it

Once construction is complete, use this so the authority records the building matches the sanctioned plan, or departs only as lawfully acceptable. State the sanction, completion date and certifications. Not permission to occupy: Chandigarh requires non-compoundable violations removed first; Punjab runs a similar process.

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

No stamp duty: it creates no right in property, so it is not an instrument under section 2(14), Indian Stamp Act, 1899. Print on plain paper; pay only the authority's fee. Any affidavit filed is stamped separately.

Registration

Not registrable: creates no right in property; section 17, Registration Act, 1908 doesn't apply.

Notarisation

Not required, unless the authority asks for an affidavit.

Witnesses

Not required. The owner's and the professional's signatures suffice.

LEGAL BASIS

In Punjab the completion certificate is issued under rule 14 and the occupation certificate under rule 23 of the Punjab Urban Planning and Development Building Rules, 2021, by the municipal corporation, council or development authority concerned. On a development-authority site, where the completion or occupation certificate is not obtained within the period allowed, the authority charges an extension fee half-yearly, on a ladder that starts in the fourth year from allotment and runs against the site rather than the person. In Chandigarh a building on an allotted or auctioned site must be completed within three years of the delivery of possession under Rule 8 of the Chandigarh Estate Rules, 2007, with up to five yearly extensions on a penalty of 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% of the total consideration, after which the Estate Officer may proceed under section 8-A of the Capital of Punjab (Development and Regulation) Act, 1952; the building is not to be occupied until the Estate Office issues an Occupation Certificate.
