Latest Answer: You are right Arup,
Also required is an assessment bill to the Society from the municipality in question, a NOC from the Collector if the building exists on Collector's land, a copy of the property card, and a receipt for the payment of registration fees. In addition, the buyer of a resale flat should ask for a clear ownership history if the residential property has changed hands before.
