When you need it

For an existing PG/hostel licence needing a separate, enforceable code of conduct — quiet hours, visitors, keys, smoking, cooking, privacy, parking, pets, emergencies. Since occupation is a licence under section 52, Easements Act, 1882, acknowledging these rules must not read as accepting a tenancy.

Police-verification stays the owner/host's duty, not the guest's. Ordinary breaches get a warning; violence or safety risk can escalate under the main agreement.

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 — an operational fact under an existing PG/hostel licence, not exclusive possession or a tenancy.

Registration

Not compulsory — no lease or registrable interest in immovable property.

Notarisation

Not required — a dated signature and delivery/payment proof matter more.

Witnesses

Not required — a signed acknowledgment suffices, unless witnesses are wanted for evidentiary value.
