A. BEFORE THE DAY
[ ] Confirm with an advocate that this letting must be registered, and, in Punjab, which form the lease must take under the rent law that applies to this letting.
[ ] Settle the final text of the lease. Check names, addresses, area, rent, term and dates against the papers.
[ ] Work out the stamp duty from the current table for Punjab or Chandigarh, whichever applies to the premises, and the registration fee, or ask the Sub-Registrar.
[ ] Buy or pay for the stamp (e-stamp or stamp paper) in the name of the party who bears it. The lease and the stamp must carry the same date or the stamp must be earlier.
[ ] Print the lease on the stamp paper or attach the e-stamp certificate, with a page count that matches in every copy.
[ ] Book the registration appointment, where the office allows it, and check the office's working days and timings.
[ ] Check the time limit for presenting the lease for registration, counted from the date of signing. If the time is short, ask the advocate what to do.

[ ] Original photo identity card of each signatory and of each witness, and a copy of each.
[ ] PAN card of each party, and the GST registration if a party is registered.
[ ] Recent passport-size photographs of each signatory, as many as the office asks for.
[ ] If a party is a company or firm: the board resolution, partners' authority or other authority naming who signs, with that person's identity.
[ ] If a party signs through an attorney: the power of attorney, properly registered or authenticated, with the attorney's identity.
[ ] Mobile numbers and email addresses of both parties, for the office's OTP or contact.
C. PROPERTY PAPERS
[ ] Proof that the landlord is entitled to let the premises: sale deed, allotment letter, lease from the allotting authority, or other title paper.
[ ] In Chandigarh, if the premises are held on a lease from the Administration, check with an advocate or the estate office whether any permission or intimation is needed before it is sub-let, and bring the lease papers.
[ ] The latest property tax receipt and, where applicable, a no-dues paper from the building society or association.
[ ] A plan or description showing the area let, and a copy of any annexure that forms part of the lease, such as a list of landlord's works or fit-out rules.
