Why you need it

When you need it

A sworn statement for the lender on title, encumbrances, litigation, possession and available documents — facts within the deponent's own knowledge, not a substitute for the lender's own title search and CERSAI check. Don't call title “clear” as an absolute guarantee: disclose known charges, litigation, occupants or missing originals, and don't hide a pre-existing mortgage just because the new loan repays it. Follow Punjab's or Chandigarh's own affidavit stamp/attestation practice.

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

Article 4, Schedule I-A — a fixed duty, not %; forms print Rs 25, but neither Punjab's nor Chandigarh's table lists a rate, so confirm at the counter. One deponent, one sheet. Chandigarh's Estate Office accepts a notarised affidavit instead of Executive Magistrate attestation.

Registration

Not registrable (s.17) — declares facts, no property right created. The mortgage it supports follows its own rule.

Notarisation

Only if the lender wants an affidavit, sworn before a Notary/Oath Commissioner.

Witnesses

Not required; oath/attestation applies instead.
