Why you need it

When you need it

An authority, buyer or lender asks an heir for this so a transaction can proceed — evidentiary only: a limited no-objection, disclosing any settlement, NOT transferring a vested share. To actually surrender a share, use a registered release instead (Article 55, section 17(1)(b), Registration Act). State the deceased, relationship, property and reserved rights; stamped as an affidavit (Article 4, Schedule I-A). Can't override succession law or cure a missing probate or registered release.

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

Chargeable under Article 4, Schedule I-A, Indian Stamp Act 1899 — a nominal FIXED duty, not a percentage; development authorities print Rs 25 on their own forms, though neither Punjab's nor Chandigarh's published table carries an affidavit line — confirm at the counter. One e-stamp per deponent, in the deponent's own name. Chandigarh's Estate Office accepts a notarised affidavit in place of Executive Magistrate attestation, except where policy requires otherwise.

Registration

Not registrable as drafted because it is evidentiary and does not extinguish a vested immovable right.

Notarisation

The affidavit is sworn/affirmed before the authorised oath/notarial authority.

Witnesses

Independent deed witnesses are not required.
