When you need it

An employer in Punjab or Chandigarh is raising an employee's pay, promoting the employee to a higher post, or doing both, and wants it in writing with the date it takes effect. The first question is which of the three this is, and the form then asks for the new designation, the old and new pay, or both.

Put the new terms in writing even when the change is small. A written letter avoids a later dispute over what was promised, and the employee needs it for a loan or a new rental. Not the Appointment Letter, which starts the employment. Not the Probation Confirmation or Extension Letter, which deals only with the end of probation. Not for a reduction in pay or a demotion, which needs the employee's consent or a disciplinary process.

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

Not chargeable to stamp duty under the Indian Stamp Act, 1899, in Punjab or Chandigarh — it is a letter, not an instrument that creates or transfers any right. Print it on the employer's letterhead.

Registration

Not registrable. Section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908 has no application to a letter of this kind.

Notarisation

Not required. What matters is proof that it reached the other side: hand delivery against a signed acknowledgement, registered post, or a dated email. Keep that proof with the file.

Witnesses

None required.
