Why you need it

When you need it

A sworn statement naming known heirs and confirming none other is known — evidence, not a judicial finding; it should not promise no unknown heir exists anywhere. State the death record and purpose; an undisclosed heir isn't deprived by being unnamed. Article 4, Schedule I-A (Punjab/Chandigarh denomination unconfirmed — ask). Does not transfer property or replace probate, letters, a succession certificate or release. Chandigarh: Estate Office file; Punjab: local revenue/authority record.

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

Fixed Article 4 duty (not a %); authorities print Rs 25 on own forms, but no PB/CH table lists an affidavit rate — confirm at counter. E-stamp in deponent's own name, one sheet each. Chandigarh Estate Office accepts a notarised affidavit over an Executive Magistrate's.

Registration

Not registrable (s.17); does not itself transmit estate property.

Notarisation

Sworn/affirmed before the oath or notarial authority the receiving file accepts.

Witnesses

Not required; signs after verification.
