An amount in rupees. Commas and a ₹ sign are both fine — write it the way you would write it anywhere else, and the document is given the tidy form of it.

The draft, as it stands

This is the whole document, not a sample of it. It is rewritten every time you change an answer.

A long blank line — __________ — stands wherever an answer has not been given. It is left that visible on purpose, so an unfinished document cannot be mistaken for a finished one.

No answer has been given, so every place a detail belongs is standing blank. The shape of the document is worth reading even now.

LEGAL BASIS

Punjab: Section 17(1)(b) of the Registration Act, 1908 requires registration if the writing itself creates or declares immovable rights. This template is drafted only as evidence of an earlier completed oral partition. If its substance is operative, Article 45 and section 17 apply instead. The precise Punjab stamp duty for a purely evidentiary memorandum was not confirmed.

Chandigarh: The same section 17 substance test applies. A sector/estate property must also be reconciled with the Estate Office file under the 1952 Act and Chandigarh Estate Rules, 2007. The precise stamp/record fee for a purely evidentiary memorandum was not confirmed. Rule 16 of the Chandigarh Estate Rules, 2007 and Rule 14 of the Chandigarh (Sale of Sites and Buildings) Rules, 1960 both forbid fragmentation of a site or building, and the Supreme Court held on 10 January 2023, in Residents Welfare Association v. Union Territory of Chandigarh, that a residential unit in Phase-I may not be fragmented, divided, bifurcated or apartmentalised. Check the Estate Office position before dividing a sector site or building by metes and bounds.

Reading costs nothing. Keeping a copy needs an account.

The opening of the draft is on this page as you answer it. Once every answer is in, the button below opens the whole draft, watermarked — still without an account. Printing it, or keeping a clean copy, is where an account is asked for. That is the whole arrangement.

A kept copy has to belong to somebody, and that is the reason for the account. There is nothing further to it.
