Why you need it

When you need it

For agreeing, between co-buyers, who contributes what before payments, fees and registration costs move — internal, not an ownership declaration. Records contribution shares, shared costs, loan responsibility, refunds, and exit if one buyer can't fund. Further from a property interest than the agreement for sale itself (s.54 TPA).

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

Binds the co-buyers on paying for, holding and disposing of the property — chargeable under Article 5, Sch.I-A, a small fixed duty. Buy the e-stamp before signing (s.17); get the figure from the tehsil Sub-Registrar or vendor.

Registration

Not compulsory — a preliminary instrument transfers no ownership (s.54, TPA). The eventual agreement/conveyance is assessed on its own terms.

Notarisation

Not required; doesn't replace stamping or registration where needed.

Witnesses

Not required for a preliminary letter. For a binding term sheet or exclusivity/cost-sharing deal, two witnesses help.
