Secure your family's future, protect valuable properties, and ensure seamless asset succession. Expert Will drafting, Trust deed creation, Gift deeds, and Sub-Registrar registration support.
Estate planning is the proactive legal and administrative process of organizing your real estate assets, financial investments, and family wealth to ensure they are managed, transferred, and distributed exactly according to your wishes.

| Instrument | When It Takes Effect | Registration Status | Stamp Duty (Delhi) | Revocability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last Will & Testament | Only after the testator's demise | Optional under law, highly recommended | Nominal registration charges | Can be modified or revoked anytime during lifetime |
| Gift Deed | Immediately during the donor's lifetime | Compulsory for immovable property (Sec 17) | Applicable state stamp duty & transfer fee | Irrevocable once accepted by donee |
| Private Family Trust | Immediately upon execution & funding | Compulsory for immovable property trusts | As per Indian Trusts Act & Delhi Stamp Rules | Can be structured as Revocable or Irrevocable |
| Relinquishment Deed | Immediately upon registration | Compulsory before Sub-Registrar | Fixed state stamp duty + registration fee | Irrevocable post-execution |
A Will is a legal declaration expressing how you wish your assets, residential properties, financial holdings, and personal effects distributed after death. A well-drawn Will names competent executors, clarifies specific bequests, and addresses contingency scenarios.
Under Section 18 of the Registration Act 1908, Will registration is optional. However, registering your Will before the concerned Delhi Sub-Registrar establishes prima facie evidentiary value and mitigates post-death disputes regarding mental capacity or undue influence.
Read Full Will Registration ProcedureA Gift Deed documents the immediate, voluntary transfer of property ownership to a loved one without monetary payment. Unlike a Will, ownership transfers right away during your lifetime upon execution and acceptance.
Under Section 123 of the Transfer of Property Act 1882, every gift of immovable property must be executed through a registered deed attested by at least two witnesses. Stamp duty must be paid according to current Delhi rates.
Read About Gift Deed DocumentationA Trust Deed establishes a legal arrangement wherein trustees hold and manage assets on behalf of designated beneficiaries. Private family trusts safeguard property from creditor claims, marital dissolution issues, and prolonged probate proceedings.
Trusts provide a ring-fenced mechanism to manage assets for minor children or dependents with special needs, ensuring structured financial distribution across generations.
Learn About Trust Deed DraftingWhen a property owner dies without a Will, the property devolves jointly on all legal heirs under applicable succession laws. If one or more heirs wish to relinquish their undivided share in favour of a parent or sibling, a Relinquishment Deed is executed.
Registration of a Relinquishment Deed is compulsory before the concerned Sub-Registrar to enable subsequent municipal and authority mutation in the sole owner's name.

Instruments requiring compulsory registration under Section 17 of the Registration Act remain legally ineffective if unexecuted at the Sub-Registrar.
Failing to amend Wills or Deeds after marriages, divorces, childbirths, or major property acquisitions creates conflicting succession claims.
Choosing beneficiaries as attesting witnesses can invalidate bequests under succession laws. Competent, independent witnesses are mandatory.

Under Section 18 of the Indian Registration Act 1908, registration of a Will is optional. However, registering a Will before the concerned Sub-Registrar is strongly recommended as it creates an official government record, proves genuine execution, and significantly reduces the likelihood of future disputes or challenges from disgruntled relatives.
Yes. A Will can be revised, amended (through a Codicil), or revoked entirely at any time during your lifetime, as long as you are of sound mind and capable of disposing of your property. If a new Will is registered, it automatically supersedes any previous Will regarding the specified assets.
A Gift Deed transfers property immediately during your lifetime without financial consideration and requires mandatory registration with applicable stamp duty. In contrast, a Will only takes effect upon the testator's demise, remains revocable during their lifetime, and attracts nominal registration fees.
Required documentation generally includes: original title deed / conveyance deed of the donor, proof of identity and PAN cards of donor and donee, property tax receipts, circle rate assessment, two independent witnesses with identity proofs, and applicable e-stamp duty certificate.
Our initial draft is typically prepared within 24 to 48 hours following document and instruction submission. Once you review and approve the draft, Sub-Registrar appointment scheduling and final registration are completed according to government slot availability, typically within a few working days.
