Why you need it

When you need it

Records a family's already-completed oral partition (separate possession taken) — without becoming the instrument that creates it. A writing that FIRST divides is an Article 45 partition instrument, registrable (s.17(1)(b)); one merely recording it is not. State the earlier date, allotments, conduct; deny present operative effect. Chandigarh/Punjab authority property remain subject to their own permissions.

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

Precise duty on a truly evidentiary memorandum is unconfirmed either jurisdiction; an operative one draws Article 45 duty. S.2(15) defines 'instrument of partition' to include dividing OR agreeing to divide — a memorandum only recording an already-acted-on partition is the evidentiary case drafted here.

Registration

Evidentiary: not compulsorily registrable; operative: registrable (s.17(1)(b)) — Kale v. Deputy Director of Consolidation, (1976) 3 SCC 119.

Notarisation

Does not substitute for registration if operative.

Witnesses

No statutory witness rule for a non-operative memorandum.
