I believe you are in Bangalore and you want to register a Power of Attorney (POA) in Bangalore before you return to abroad

Yes, you can register a POA in Bangalore and you need the following documents for registration

  • POA Draft
  • PAN
  • Two witnesses Aadhaar

Follow the below steps to Register a POA in Bangalore:

Step 1: Draft the POA

Step 2: Print the POA draft on document paper

  • You sign the POA on all pages
  • Two witnesses’ signs on last page of POA

Step 3: Submit an application on Kaveri Online Services. Usually, the application is approved within 2–3 working days, pay the government fee and book the registration slot. In a separate blog, we wrote the detailed procedure to submit an application on Kaveri Online service, here is the link for your reference https://shorturl.at/vSHkk

Following are the documents required to submit an application on Kaveri Online Services

  • POA in PDF format (Deed document)

Following are the government cost for POA registration in Bangalore

  • Stamp Duty Rs. 1000 per executant

Step 4: As per your registration slot, carry the following to sub-registrar office

Step 5: The office scans the POA for government record and hands back the registered POA to you

This completes the procedure to register POA in Bangalore

——————————–*************——————————

whereas, executing a POA in abroad cost more than Rs. 25,000 and at least 15 working days to complete the process including;

  • Drafting

  • Shipment to India
  • Adjudication in India

Additionally, you may need to travel for a long to get attention from notary or Indian consulate in abroad, especially in USA. Compared to India, it is not easy to make a power of attorney in abroad because of the high cost, time and effort. But still, we explain the procedure to execute a POA in abroad and you can consider this as your least possible option

I am selling my property and buyer takes home loan. what are my roles in the process of selling my property?

Based on my experience, suggesting the below process

  • Once the buyer finalizes the property, collect the token advance of around Rs. 5K–10K. (I usually collect token advance to filter the clients because few clients claim to be interested and demand the property documents but they don’t turn-up after collecting documents)
  • Handover photocopy of the following property documents to buyer, whereas the buyer will submit these documents to bank for verification
  1. Registered Sale Deed & Parent Deed
  2. Encumbrance Certificate (EC)
  3. eKhata
  4. Property tax receipt
  5. Cancelled cheque
  6. Aadhaar & PAN
  • Once the bank’s legal team approves the above-submitted documents, the bank will inform the buyer to proceed with Sale Agreement execution
  • The buyer drafts Sale Agreement with the help of his advocate and shares the draft with seller for review. The seller must review the Sale Agreement draft carefully, especially parties name, age, address, ID proof, property schedule, payment terms, taxes, cancellation & dispute clauses
  • The seller and buyer sign the Sale Agreement, the buyer bears the cost for Sale agreement execution and stamp duty payment
  • At the time of Sale Agreement signing, seller must collect the downpayment from buyer. Usually, the download payment is the difference between the consideration amount and the sanctioned loan amount

For example: If the sanctioned loan amount is 80% of the consideration, the downpayment must be 20% of the consideration. Refer to the below figure for better understanding,

  1. Consideration is Rs. 1 Cr
  2. The sanctioned loan amount is Rs. 80 lakhs
  3. The downpayment is Rs. 20 lakhs
  • The buyer submits the formal loan application and Sale Agreement to bank to process the loan application
  • Bank takes around 15 working days to sanction the loan. Meanwhile, buyer draft the Sale Deed and share the draft with seller for review
  • Once the bank loan is sanctioned, the bank will share the cheque or DD image with buyer & seller, confirming that loan amount is ready for disbursal
  • Buyer will submit application for Sale Deed registration and book the slot for registration. Buyer bear the cost related to registration of sale deed including stamp duty, registration fee, advocate fee and any other miscellaneous expenses
  • Seller, Buyer and two witnesses sign the Sale Deed and register in sub-registrar office
  • Buyer and Bank register the MODT in sub-registrar office. Usually, the Sale Deed and MODT registration are back-to-back registrations at the same time.
  • Immediately after the registration of Sale Deed and MODT. Buyer & Seller must visit the bank and deposit the following property documents
  1. Sale Deed that you just registered with buyer
  2. MODT
  3. Parent Deed
  4. And any other documents related to property like Agreement Power of Attorney, Khata, receipt, etc..
  • Upon the deposit of property documents with bank, the bank will handover the final settlement cheque to seller
  • Deposit the cheque in your bank for remittance
  • Once the complete payment is remitted to your bank account, handover the property possession to buyer

What are the ways to transfer a property from parent to children?

The best way to transfer property from parent to children is **GIFT DEED** because the transfer of property is effective immediately after registration and the stamp duty is just Rs.5000

Documents required for Gift Deed:

  • Identity Proof of parent and children (Donor and Donee)
  • Identity proof of two witnesses
  • Registered Deed (of how the Donor acquired the property)

Procedure to execute a Gift Deed:

  • Draft the Gift Deed
  • Pay the Stamp Duty
  • Register the Gift Deed in sub-registrar office

One of my clients wishes to gift a property to his daughter, and we assisted him in registering the gift deed in a sub-registrar office in Bangalore. Refer to below Gift Deed image


Few other ways to transfer property from parent to children are:

  • WILL
  • Sale Deed
  • Relinquishment Deed

There are certain advantages & disadvantages and we shared below:

1. WILL: is a legal document that expresses a person’s (testator) wishes to distribute his/her property after death

  • Transfer of property becomes effective after the testator’s death. Will is not mandatory to register but registering WILL enhances the authenticity of the document
  • Registering WILL is an affordable option because there is no stamp duty, the registration fee is just Rs. 200 and we can register in any sub-registrar office (not restricted to jurisdiction)

For Example, if your property is in Mumbai and you live in Bangalore, you can register the WILL in Bangalore.

  • As the situation changes, a person’s preference may change. Will can be updated or modified as many times as necessary. Whereas other deed like Gift Deed and Sale Deed cannot be updated or modified once registered

Documents required for WILL:

  • Identity Proof of Testator (person giving the WILL)
  • Identity proof of two witnesses
  • Not required to furnish property title documents in sub-registrar office for registration of WILL

Procedure to execute WILL:

  • Draft the WILL
  • Pay the registration fee
  • Register the WILL in sub-registrar office

  1. Sale Deed: is a legal document that transfers property ownership from parent to children in exchange for monetary consideration. The ownership transfer becomes effective immediately after the registration

Registration of Sale Deed incurs a high stamp duty of 5% consideration or guidance value, whichever is higher. Apart from stamp duty, the TDS is applicable

Instead of paying such high stamp duty and TDS for Sale Deed, we could choose gift deed because the stamp duty is just Rs. 5,000 and no TDS. Generally, the Sale Deed is most suitable for dealing with non-family members. Since you are family members, you must take advantage of stamp duty and taxation

Documents required for Sale Deed:

  • Identity proof of seller and buyer
  • Identity proof of two witnesses
  • Title documents (of how seller acquired the property)

Procedure to execute Sale Deed:

  • Draft the Sale Deed
  • Pay the Stamp Duty
  • Register the Sale Deed in sub-registrar office

  1. Relinquishment Deed: is applicable when a parent wishes to release their share in a jointly owned property to children

For example, a Father, mother, and daughter are legal heirs to a property. Father and mother can release their share to daughter by registering the Relinquishment Deed.

The transfer of ownership becomes effective immediately after the registration, The Stamp Duty is around Rs. 5,000

Documents required for Relinquishment Deed:

  • Identity Proof of parent and children (Releasor and Releasee)
  • Identity proof of two witnesses
  • Title documents

Procedure to execute a Relinquishment Deed:

  • Draft the Relinquishment Deed
  • Pay the Stamp Duty
  • Register the Relinquishment Deed in sub-registrar office
