Why you need it

When you need it

A commercial-leasing broker in Punjab or Chandigarh, billing the landlord or the tenant — whichever owes the fee under the brokerage agreement — for commission earned on one completed lease. Names the premises and the Lease Deed or Lease Agreement it relates to, states the commission basis, and once the fee is paid doubles as the signed acknowledgement of the paying party that the amount is received and the mandate of the Broker for that Lease is discharged. A broker registered for goods and services tax issues it as a tax invoice; the place of supply is where the Premises are — Punjab charges central tax plus state tax, Chandigarh charges central tax plus Union territory tax. It does not replace the brokerage agreement that fixes the fee in the first place.

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

Unpaid, this document is only an invoice and attracts no stamp duty. Once the acknowledgement of payment is completed and signed, it becomes a receipt for money under Article 53, Schedule I of the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 as applicable in Punjab and in Chandigarh: for a sum exceeding Rs 5,000, a revenue stamp of one rupee is affixed over the signature of the paying party and cancelled by that signature. The discharge language does not turn the document into a release or into an instrument chargeable under any other Article — in substance it remains a receipt for the sum stated, and no ad valorem duty is payable on the commission itself.

Registration

Not a document of title and not compulsorily registrable: it creates no interest in immovable property, so section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908 does not reach it, whether the Premises are in Punjab or in Chandigarh. Keep this document, and the Lease Deed or Lease Agreement it refers to, with the accounts of the Broker and of the paying party for as long as the tax law below requires.

Notarisation

Not required, in Punjab or in Chandigarh, and never used for an invoice or a receipt. Notarisation adds nothing to a document that is only evidence of a payment already made.

Witnesses

None required in either jurisdiction. What the acknowledgement needs is the signature of the paying party against the discharge: without it, that part has nothing to bind, and the document remains the invoice of the Broker alone.
