What exactly is the "undivided share" this deed transfers along with the flat?

It is the buyer's proportionate share in the land the building stands on and in the common areas — corridors, staircases, the lobby, the structure itself — that comes bundled with owning a numbered apartment. A flat number alone does not describe it, which is why this deed states it separately, using the wording of the title or allotment instrument the seller already holds.

Why you need it

When you need it

For a completed apartment resale, where the buyer takes the unit plus the seller's proportionate share in land/common areas. Identify the apartment number, areas, project, undivided share, parking, possession, title documents — a flat number alone leaves the common-area interest uncertain. For a RERA project, s.17 covers common-area title transfer. Completed transfers only, not under-construction allotments.

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

PUNJAB: 5% (Sch.I-A/23) + 1% Social Infra Cess + 1% PIDB + 0.25% SIDF = 7.25%, on the higher of consideration/Collector rate; reg. fee 1% (cap Rs 2,00,000); facilitation Rs 1,000/3,000/5,000 (≤10L/≤30L/>30L); pasting Rs 200. CHANDIGARH: 5%; reg. fee 1% (cap Rs 10,000); pasting Rs 20; lease-transfer 3%. No cess/board fee/women's concession — the '6%' figure isn't in the Administration's schedule; confirm at the Sub-Registrar. Duty due at execution (s.17); unstamped = inadmissible until duty+10x penalty (s.35).

Registration

Compulsorily registrable (Registration Act 1908 s.17): correctly identified, executed by competent parties, presented within four months (s.23), extendable only on s.25's limited terms.

Notarisation

Doesn't replace compulsory registration — execute and register the deed; needed only if a separate affidavit requires it.

Witnesses

Two witnesses are prudent and customary for execution/registration practice.

What this document is for

A seller and a buyer use this to complete the resale of a built apartment or flat in Punjab or Chandigarh — the buyer takes the numbered unit itself, plus the seller's proportionate undivided share in the land and common areas beneath and around the building. It is for a completed transfer of an already-built unit, not for an under-construction allotment from a builder.

The undivided share is the part a flat number alone does not cover. A deed that names only the apartment number and says nothing about the land and common-area share underneath it leaves that interest uncertain — which is exactly the gap this deed is drafted to close, alongside the usual questions of price, parking, dues and possession.

Before you use this — the undivided share and the parking are not automatic

Buying an apartment is not just buying the four walls. This deed separately describes the proportionate undivided share in the land and common areas that comes with the unit, using the words of the title or allotment instrument itself — leaving that description vague, or assuming it is implied by the apartment number alone, is the specific gap this document exists to close. Parking works the same way: the deed only transfers a parking right if the project's or society's own documents actually recognise one for this unit, and it says so plainly where none is being represented, rather than assuming a slot comes with the sale.

Stamp paper and registration

Stamp paper needed

Yes

Typical stamp duty — Punjab

7.25% of the higher of the sale consideration and the Collector rate — 5% stamp duty plus a 1% Social Infrastructure Cess, a 1% Punjab Infrastructure Development Board fee and a 0.25% Special Infrastructure Development Fee, stacked on the same value. Registration fee is a further 1%, capped at Rs 2,00,000, plus a facilitation charge that rises with the price and a Rs 200 pasting fee.

Typical stamp duty — Chandigarh

Ask us — The Administration's published schedule states 5% for a freehold sale and 3% for a transfer of lease rights, not the 6% many property portals repeat. But the template's own drafting notes record that this Chandigarh schedule carries no notification number behind it, so confirm the current figure at the Sub-Registrar before buying stamp rather than relying on the published table alone.

Registration at the Sub-Registrar

Yes — Compulsory under section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908. Present the deed within four months of execution; a further four months is possible only on payment of a penalty.

Notary or witnesses

Notarisation does not replace the compulsory registration. Two witnesses are the prudent, customary practice for signing and registering this kind of deed.

What you will need before you start

The seller's and the buyer's full names and addresses
The apartment number, the project or society name, and the super area — and the carpet area too, where the title documents record it
A description of the undivided share in the land and common areas, in the words the title or allotment instrument itself uses
The status of the apartment owners' association or co-operative society, and any membership or transfer procedure it requires
What parking right, if any, actually transfers with the unit, and its slot or type if one is identified
The status of maintenance and society dues up to the date of sale, and how any outstanding amount is being handled

Common mistakes

Leaving the undivided share in the land and common areas vague, or assuming the apartment number alone covers it — it needs its own description, in the title instrument's own words.
Assuming a parking slot is included in the sale without checking whether the project or society documents actually recognise one for this unit.
Registering the sale without confirming the current maintenance and society dues position, leaving an unstated arrears balance to follow the flat.

Questions people ask before using this document

Does buying the flat automatically include a parking space?

Not automatically. The deed only transfers a parking right if one is actually identified and recognised by the project or society documents, and it says plainly where no separate parking right is being represented. Check the project or society records before assuming a slot comes with the sale.

Is Chandigarh stamp duty on an apartment sale really 5%, or is it 6%?

The Chandigarh Administration's published schedule states 5% for a freehold sale, not 6%, but the schedule carries no traceable notification number behind it. Confirm the exact current figure with the Sub-Registrar before you buy the stamp.

What if the seller owes maintenance or society dues?

The deed asks the parties to record the position plainly — either that the seller has cleared dues up to possession, that an adjustment is being made, or that the buyer accepts a disclosed outstanding amount. Confirm the actual figure with the society or association before registration, since an unstated arrears balance can follow the flat rather than the seller.

Is this the right deed if I am buying a plot rather than a flat?

No — use the plot sale deed instead. This document is drafted specifically around a built apartment with an undivided share in shared land and common areas, which a standalone plot does not have.

Agreement to Sell (Iqrarnama / Bayana)
The contract that usually comes first, fixing the price and payment schedule before this deed is executed.
Non-Encumbrance Affidavit
Commonly filed alongside the sale deed to state the apartment carries no existing charge or mortgage.
Possession Letter (Kabza Patra)
To formally record the date possession of the flat actually changed hands, alongside the deed itself.
Sale Deed for a Plot
The equivalent deed for buying a standalone plot of land instead of a built apartment.
