The following documents are required to be registered compulsorily under the Indian Registration Act, 1908:(a) Every time the immovable property is sold/purchased, the agreement needs to be registered. (b)Instrument of gift of immovable property.

Hi can you please answer my query.Which documents must be compulsory registered?

Procedure of conversion of agricultural land into non agricultural land in bhopal and nimach (madhya pradesh)??

First, check which approbation authority's jurisdiction does the land fall into. For example GHMC, HMDA or DTPC. The panchayat has no authority to convert the land nor to sanction any layout. If the area falls in panchayat's jurisdiction then you need to approach DTPC. If you are planning to construct house, then you have an option for applying directly for house permission and paying the conversion charges included in the permission charges. firstly check out the jurisdiction and then apply for the land use. If it's not in reserve category then conversion of land is not a problem though it will involve some and lots of leg work. best is you can hand over to consultants who are experts in these matters, who not only save you time and energy, but lots emotions too.

You can avail tax exemption on sale of a house if the profit is invested in either bonds of the National Highways Authority of India and Rural Electrification Corporation Limited for three years. The investment has to take place within six months of realizing the profit. However, investment is allowed only up to Rs 50 lakh in a financial year. Usually the interest on these bonds is around 5-5.5%. Hence, few factors should always be kept in mind when you are going to buy or sell a property. While making profit by selling a house, you need to know which tax bracket you fall under when calculating capital gains tax and also whether or not indexation can save tax payable for you.

You can claim tax exemption under Section 54 on the long-term capital gain on sale of a property. If you buy a house within two years or construct a house within three years with all the profit made of sale, then you can avail tax exemption. You can avail tax exemption if you had bought a second house within a year before selling the first house. Further, you can avail tax exemption under Section 54 (F), too. For this, you need to own not more than one house and invest sale proceeds from assets other than a house in real estate. Real estate investment in India must be made in residential properties, not in commercial properties or vacant plot, in order to avail tax exemption.

Shilpa, I would suggest you to invest only after the case is cleared. It is not safe to invest in properties under litigation. You may end up in huge loss and yet no property..

Hi Senthil.. I see it's been some time that you have posted this query.. I hope you have come to some conclusion.. so have you purchased that flat or not? If not decided yet, then I think it is better to get a legal expert hired to see which is better option..

When I contacted HDFC bank for loan, they are asking the seller to get a Form B and they would sanction loan. In my knowledge, Form 'B' is nothing but 'B' Khata. So technically, if I purchase this property, the site has an 'A' khata where as the individual flat has 'B' Khata and HDFC is ready to fund the loan. Is it wise to buy the property? Will there any implications later when I try to resell the property?

Mr. Ahmed, when you bought the property in 1992, didnt you do the registration? Or do you have sales deed or any related documents as proofs for showing that the property is yours?

If the possession has of the flats have started then definitely the builder have to given possession. Please check with the builder...

Please google. you may get good results

Both vat and service tax has to be calculated on the basic amount., u cant charge a tax on the tax ie.service tax is a tax, you cant charge VAT on the service tax. so it has to be basis amount only

The Section 80C allows tax benefit for the amount paid towards the Stamp Duty and the Registration process. However, the tax rebate on principal repayment may not be allowed when the property is under construction.If there is a delay in the project and the possession doesn’t happen on the given date, one cannot get the tax benefit for the principal and the interest. One can avail the tax benefits at the time of filing the income tax returns.

How can one avail tax benefits from an under construction property?

Yeah you can ask the builder why he has not taken money from other owners. Was the BWSSB & KPTCl charges mentioned in the documents which was provided by him.

The full form of BWSSB is Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board and KPTCL stands for Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited.

When we can get the notification from BBMP for converting the Khata B to A? Please if anyone know this, share it here. It will be helpful.

Please confirm if to process Khata A, betterment charges of 550Rs per SQM or 55.5 Rs per SFT needs to be paid to BBMP? ALso, is this betterment cost for a flat or apartment complex is to paid by flat SFT or the undivided share of land? As for my apartment of 2000SFT and 1 covered car park of 180 SFT, if the betterment charge is on flat SFT then it seems I have to pay 1.2 Lakhs to BBMP to get Khata A? Also, should builder have paid this as this is a statuatory charge?

If the depth of the site in meters is upto 6 mtrs then the exterior open space for residential purpose in front you will have to leave 1 sq. mtrs and 1 sq. mtrs in the right. If the depth is over 6 upto 9 mtrs then you have to leave 1 sq mtr on all the four side of the house

Builders as well as flat buyers are confused over the payment of VAT charges on selling and buying property. According to the law, Value Added Tax (VAT) is applicable on mobile things. Things which are immovable are not counted under VAT.

Loan: The borrower initially receives an amount of credit from the lender, which they pay back, usually but not always in regular installments, to the lender.

Mortgage: Mortgage is seen as the standard method by which individuals and businesses can purchase residential and commercial real estate without the need to pay the full value immediately.

Legally, A loan is a type of debt. A loan is a contractual promise of a debtor to repay a sum of money in exchange for the promise of a creditor to give another sum of money. A mortgage is a method of using property (real estate or personal property) as security for the payment of a debt.

People eligible to apply for BDA sites are:-
Persons who have attained 18 years of age.
Domicile of Karnataka for 15 years prior to date of registration.
All India services 2 years Domicile Certificate (Central Govt Employees).
Persons who does not own previous BDA allotted Site/House.

What is the eligibility to apply for a BDA site?

Please check the agreement if anything has been mentioned about the ST + VAT. Actually the originally buyer should pay the ST + VAT

In resale transaction from any owner other than developer, no service tax is liable. For further clarification you can take advice from your legal expert.

hi jojo/madhu, Have you guys formed a group ? Can you please share your contact details to me. Thanks.

Hi, I have booked a flat in Shilpitha Sunflower. Let me know if anybody else has booked it.

I don't know.I am in the process of taking legal opinion.

I heard that the project is approved by BBMP. Is there any legal issue with the project?

BM Developers is one of the leading real estate builder and they have successfully completed variety of projects like construction of residential houses, multi-storied buildings,apartments, commercial complexes etc

BM Mystic Greens is one of the popular residential developments in HSR Layout Sector 2, neighborhood of Bangalore. It is among the ongoing projects of BM Developers. The project is expected to get completed by end of 2013.

Builder cannot cancel without prior intimation if it is mentioned in the agreement. You may approach the court or consumer forum.

Getting a Khata is an important step in a property transfer process. It is mandatory for all property owners/holders to pay property tax. As such, all property owners need to have a Khata. It is issued by the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP). Khata certificates are also issued by the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) in case the property comes within its limits, and by the panchayat in case of a property which is converted from agricultural to non-agricultural use.

It is true that a majority of the layouts are DC converted and not approved by BDA/BMRDA. There is element of risk which can be properly analyzed by a competent lawyer.

Hey Rejitha, Submitting an appeal in the court does not mean he has got stay over if he has the stay order ask him to show the papers or the documents he got. There is no other alternative then to approach BBMP again about the house.

Now-a-days every Tom, Dick and Harry builder seems to have a CREDAI tagline in his advertisement. Don't you think this is misleading the public?

CREDAI is a regulatory body and I think they should monitor the work. If CREDAI claims to play a self regulatory role, then the CREDai has a long way to go.

Hello Sumanta, I think you should talk with the builder about the registration as the agreement is already done.

I think all the buyers who have booked a flat in this project form and group and take action against them

ALL THE TELEPHONE ARE DISCONNECTED.EVEN I VISITED YALAHANKA OFFICE & THAT WAS LOCKED.

You can check with your bank and request them to provide you the original khata or else you can submitted a letter to bank stating that you will return the original khata after khata transfer.

i would advice you to go to BDA office for your jurisdiction and get the form with list of documents needed. You can apply for old owner original khatha transfer with written application to the bank. Mention that you need original documents as required by BDA and once transfer is done in your name, you will submit the originals to the bank in 45 days.

Hello Rakesh, Before booking please cross check all the documents and if he has not got approvals then I think there is some complications with the project.

Thanks for the reply.Could you please quote the law to enable us to take up with ' Nagarjuna Construction Company' the builders .

In Labour laws it is mentioned that toilet facilities particularly for women workers should be provided. If the builder is not providing then you can take legal help in this situation.

You can go to sub-registrar office, its guidance value is very less compared to what we are registering at, if we just go with the govt guidance value we can save good amount

As far as I know VAT is 5.5% and Service Tax is 3.09%.

The Khata in the name of a person signifies that the person concerned is in possession of the property in the revenue records for all intents and purposes. The Khata Certificate is a secondary document of title, the primary documents being the sale deed, partition deed etc.

Rent is a monthly payment made to the landlord,whereas Lease is an agreement for fixed period for on payment of one time amount,which will be repaid went you leave the house.

Lease agreement: Lease agreement is not flexible and it is made for long term. Pre determined and cannot be broken without breaking the lease.
Rental Agreement: Rental agreement is flexible and it s made for short term. Pre determined and terms can be changed

Hey Everybody, recently I have read an article in Commonfloor website about Gift deed. I am sharing the link with you guys. Click here to read the article Only Registered Gift Deed of Property Is Valid

First take help from a lawyer to prepare the gift deed and get it registered. You just have to pay gift tax as per the gift tax so that procedure gets completely over and the title comes to you

If you have working wife go for joint registration and bank loan will be too easy to get especially if the amount is over 50L

Did you check with the builder whether he will be providing occupancy certificate for flats?
