What Is a Sale Deed?
A sale deed (also called a conveyance deed) is the primary legal document that transfers ownership of a property from the seller to the buyer. Registered under the Registration Act, 1908, a sale deed is the most reliable proof of ownership and is essential for preventing disputes and enabling future resale or mortgage.
Key information in a sale deed includes: property description, sale consideration, buyer & seller details, payment terms, and signatures of parties and witnesses. At Gaurav Documentation we ensure the language, clauses, and legal references are precise and tailored to your transaction.
Why Sale Deed Registration in Delhi Is Mandatory
Registration of sale deeds is compulsory under Section 17 of the Registration Act. An unregistered document cannot be used as evidence in court, leaving buyers unprotected. Registered deeds ensure government records are updated, protect the buyer’s title, and reduce the risk of fraud.
- Legal proof of ownership
- Protection against fraudulent claims
- Essential for resale, loan, or mutation
- Updates revenue and municipal records
Step-by-Step Sale Deed Registration Process in Delhi
We manage the entire sale deed workflow so you can complete the transaction with confidence and without unnecessary visits to government offices.
Step 1 – Drafting the Sale Deed
Our legal team drafts a clear, enforceable sale deed reflecting agreed terms and protecting your rights. The draft is reviewed by both parties before finalization.
Step 2 – Stamp Duty & Registration Fee Calculation
Stamp duty in Delhi varies by gender and property zone. We compute exact stamp duty and registration fees per the latest government notifications and advise on optimal payment options.
Step 3 – Verification of Documents
We verify title documents, encumbrance certificates, tax receipts, IDs and society NOCs to ensure a clean title and avoid post-registration complications.
Step 4 – Sub-Registrar Appointment
We assist with booking the Sub-Registrar Office (SRO) appointment, and guide you through the list of documents required on the day of registration.
Step 5 – Registration & Biometric Verification
Both parties (or their authorised POAs) visit the SRO for signing, witness verification, thumb impressions and biometric authentication.
Step 6 – Collection of Registered Sale Deed
Registered copies are usually available within 3–7 working days. We arrange collection and courier/delivery to your address if required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can I register a sale deed without the seller present?
Yes — a valid, notarized and registered Power of Attorney (POA) allows registration in the seller’s absence. We assist with POA preparation and notarization as needed.
What happens if the sale deed is not registered?
An unregistered deed has no legal validity and cannot be produced as evidence in court. Registration safeguards the buyer’s rights and the property title.
Can NRIs register property in Delhi?
Yes. NRIs commonly register via an authorised POA. We guide NRIs on documentation, attestation, and coordination with SROs.
