When you need it

A building authority, lender, insurer or owner needs a structural engineer's stability assessment — the request to the engineer, not the certificate. Describes the structure, age, height/floors, drawings, distress, alterations, loads and scope; the engineer decides if inspection suffices or testing is needed.

Chandigarh requires certification at set stages. Asks for an independent finding, not a pre-written conclusion.

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 — engaging an engineer to inspect and report creates no right in property (outside s.2(14), Stamp Act 1899). Plain paper. Only stamp that can arise: a one-rupee revenue stamp on a receipt over Rs 5,000 (s.30/Article 53, Schedule I).

Registration

Registration is not required.

Notarisation

Notarisation is not required unless an authority-prescribed affidavit accompanies the engineer's certificate.

Witnesses

Witnesses are not required. The structural engineer's professional signature, licence/registration and inspection record are critical.
