When you need it

You are engaging one firm both to design and to build the fit-out of an office. The Contract sets out the brief, how the drawings are submitted and approved, the BOQ and price, the payment stages, the timeline and any delay penalty, and a handover with a written snag list that must be cleared before the final payment.

Not for interior work where you already have the design and only need execution — use the Interior Work Contract. Not for building a structure — use the House Construction Contract. Not for design only with no execution — use the Interior Designer Consultancy Agreement.

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 as an agreement, not a conveyance. PUNJAB: Article 5, Schedule I-A to the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 as applicable in Punjab, residuary rate under Article 5(c). Confirm the current figure with the Sub-Registrar or against revenue.punjab.gov.in. CHANDIGARH: the equivalent agreement article under the Chandigarh Administration's table at revenue.chd.gov.in; confirm at the Sub-Registrar's office, 30 Bays Building.

Registration

Not compulsorily registrable under section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908 — no interest in immovable property is created.

Notarisation

Not legally required. Notarising is sometimes done to fix the date of signing, which can matter if the start date or timeline is later disputed.

Witnesses

Not legally required, but two witnesses are provided for below, given the value that typically passes under a contract of this kind and how often the facts of what was agreed are disputed once work has started.
