A property document is read most carefully on the day something goes wrong — a buyer who will not pay, a brother who says he never released his share, a bank that will not accept the chain of title. We draft for that day.
Title first
Before any purchase, we trace the chain of title through the earlier agreements and search the Sub-Registrar’s records. You get a written report: what is clean, what is missing, and what to insist on before you pay.
Stamp duty and registration
Stamp duty in Mumbai is computed on the higher of the agreement value and the government’s ready-reckoner value. A document must generally be presented for registration within four months of its execution. Our stamp duty calculator shows the government charges on a purchase; our fee for drafting and attending registration is quoted separately, in writing.
Family transfers
Gift deeds, release deeds and relinquishments between family members carry their own stamp duty treatment and their own risks. We will tell you which instrument fits what your family is actually trying to do.
Leave and licence
In Maharashtra, a leave and licence agreement must be registered — Section 55 of the Maharashtra Rent Control Act puts the burden on the landlord. Registration can be done online, and we handle it end to end.
