When you need it

The sworn affidavit that goes with it — on stamp paper and notarised, for the Name Correction in a Revenue Record or the Application for Correction in the Estate Office Record in this library — neither of which the office will act on unsworn. A record has a spelling variation, and the authority wants a sworn identity statement with the correction application.

Narrow scope: the two spellings, documents showing both refer to the same person, and that no ownership/share transfers. Not for a genuine ownership dispute or to bypass rectifying a registered deed naming someone else. Punjab still follows the Fard Badar route.

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

Chargeable under Article 4, Schedule I-A (Punjab) — nominal fixed duty; authorities print Rs 25, though no official table has an affidavit line — confirm at the counter. Buy the e-stamp in the deponent's own name. Chandigarh's Estate Office accepts a notarised affidavit instead of an Executive Magistrate's.

Registration

Not registrable — an affidavit creates no right in property, so s.17, Registration Act, 1908 doesn't apply.

Notarisation

Swearing/attestation is required only where the receiving authority or affidavit procedure requires it.

Witnesses

Witnesses are ordinarily unnecessary; oath/attestation is the relevant formality.
