Why you need it

When you need it

Handing keys or title papers to a manager or advocate, want a signed list of what and terms? Lost originals are costly. Law treats the holder as a bailee, bound to prudent care and return on demand. This lists every item, records purpose/storage, forbids copying, requires return by a fixed time.

What follows is written for Punjab and Chandigarh. It states the position there rather than describing how it varies, so the amounts below are the ones that apply — worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office, because rates change. If the property is anywhere else in India, none of this is yours.

Stamp duty

No stamp duty — the Act charges a receipt only for money or property against a debt; safekeeping isn't.

Registration

Not registrable — safekeeping, no interest. Exception: a lender's title-deed deposit is a mortgage, s.58(f), TPA.

Notarisation

Not required.

Witnesses

None needed — the Custodian's signature is the evidence. One witness is sensible where original title documents are involved.
