When you need it

A landlord wants written confirmation from the employer before accepting the tenancy, or the employer offers housing support. The letter separates confirming employment, internal reimbursement, and directly guaranteeing rent — blur them and an HR letter reads as a payment guarantee.

A term over a year is registrable under s.17(1)(d), Registration Act 1908, not this letter.

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 as a preliminary record. Reworded to grant possession or conclude a lease, treat as that instrument.

Registration

Not compulsory — not itself a lease. s.17(1)(d) catches the eventual lease if over a year or yearly rent.

Notarisation

Not required; doesn't replace compulsory registration.

Witnesses

Not required unless the tenancy document adopts witnesses.
