Why you need it

When you need it

Gifting property to a minor still needs ordinary gift law: voluntary transfer, no consideration, acceptance in the donor's lifetime — here through the lawful guardian. S.123: registered instrument, two witnesses. Disclose burdens so the minor isn't saddled with undisclosed liability. Punjab authority allotments need prior s.43(7) permission (1995 Act); Chandigarh sector property needs the Estate Office file updated.

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: Article 33 — 5% (consideration/Collector rate, higher) + 1% cess + 1% PIDB + 0.25% SIDF = 7.25%. The blood-relation remission (Order S.O.28/2014) DOES cover a gift to the donor's own minor child, grandchild, brother or sister; a gift from any other relative (e.g. uncle/aunt) pays the full 7.25%. Reg. fee 1% (min Rs 50, max Rs 2L). Chandigarh: 5% (item 2) or blood-relation exemption (item 24) — confirm at Sector 17; contested (portals say 6%); item 2 applies where the minor isn't the donor's blood relation. Reg. fee 1%, capped Rs 10,000 + Rs 20 pasting. Stamp before/at signing (s.17); unstamped inadmissible until penalty paid (s.35).

Registration

Compulsory (s.123, TP Act; s.17, Registration Act); 4-month window to present (s.23), limited extension (s.25).

Notarisation

Does not replace compulsory registration.

Witnesses

Two attesting witnesses required (s.123).
