Why you need it

When you need it

For replacing one guarantor with another while the loan continues. Needs lender approval of the new guarantor, the new guarantee becoming effective, and an express, clearly-scoped discharge of the old one — a borrower can't unilaterally swap sureties. The new guarantor needs fresh KYC/credit assessment, since liability is co-extensive with the principal debtor unless limited (s.128). Must avoid a security gap; the old guarantor isn't released merely because an application was accepted.

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

No stamp duty — not an instrument under s.2(14), Stamp Act, 1899; plain paper. A later release or guarantee is separately stamped.

Registration

Not registrable (s.17, Registration Act, 1908). A paper that also charges property is a mortgage, needing registration + 2 witnesses (s.59, TPA 1882).

Notarisation

Not required unless the lender asks.

Witnesses

Contractual practice, not the s.59 mortgage rule; follow the lender's own requirement.

LEGAL BASIS

A guarantor's liability is co-extensive with the borrower's (section 128 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872). A guarantee that covers a series of transactions is a continuing guarantee (section 129), which the guarantor may revoke as to future transactions by notice to the lender (section 130). A variance in the loan terms made without the guarantor's consent, a release of the borrower, extra time given to the borrower, or the loss of the security discharges the guarantor wholly or in part (sections 133, 134, 135, 139 and 141). On a secured home loan, section 13(11) of the SARFAESI Act, 2002 lets the lender proceed against the guarantor without first taking any of the enforcement measures against the property.
