General Power of Attorney - Real document over fake document

Q: Please help me. I have purchased a residential land property in New Delhi, RAMA VIHAR area, North West Delhi, Pin code - 110081. This is a power of attorney property and the colony has not yet been approved by DDA. It has been 3 years since I purchased this property. Now I found that there are some people (GUNDAS) having fake documents of any property and they claim to have any property their own property. WHICH IS ALL FAKE. Now can you please help me to take some necessary steps so that I don't fall in this type of situation in the future.

I just want to ask what are the points/steps I need to keep in mind to have full legal control over my property? Can filing property tax of that land benefit me? Please help.

How can I have full control/ownership LEGALLY on my property in this area?

Thank you.

Hi folks,
A power of attorney which is accurately authenticated by the notary or any magistrate, an affidavit has to be filed with all the original documents of the power of attorney authorising an agent to do certain acts. All the documents will be verified by the court and then court will register power of attorney by putting seal and sign. It is very much essential to make the power of attorney valid.

Hi,
Property sales through the common practice of general power of attorney will not give ownership title to the buyer. No property sale on power of attorney as per Supreme Court order in 2011. The court rules that transfer through general power of attorney cannot give ownership title to the buyer.

Hi Lakshay,
Power of Attorney is nothing but a simple document which lists out the powers that you want to share with the POA holder. It is primarily used by NRI to manage their property in India. Please note that it is NOW mandatory to have the POA registered specifically for property matters. Reach out to the office of Registrar (commonly known as office of sub-registrar) for your residential location with 2 witness to sign the POA in front of registrar.

Hi Lakshay,
As i know, you should carry all the documentary proof documents like address proof, voter ID card, passport, Aadhar card in original along with their photo-copies for registration of property in your name. You never know what they can ask for. I could not find any official published list of documents and hence advise to carry as much proofs as possible to avoid inconvenience.
Do not forget to carry the POA with you.
