Why you need it

When you need it

Get the registry index/summary record for a registered instrument to verify a transaction or locate the deed. 'Index II' is the common label, but Punjab/Chandigarh may format it differently — request the office's equivalent extract. State the document number, date, office, parties and property.

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: a copy application for an index entry isn't an instrument under s.2(14), Stamp Act, 1899. Punjab: Rs 1.25 court-fee label; Chandigarh Sub-Registrar (30 Bays, Sector 17): own fee.

Registration

Registration is not required.

Notarisation

Notarisation is not ordinarily required unless the receiving authority specifically requires an affidavit or attested application.

Witnesses

Witnesses are not ordinarily required. Identity/authorisation and the authority's search or certification process are more important.

INDEX II CERTIFIED COPY APPLICATION

Application date: 2 April 2026

Applicant: Aarav Sharma, Sector 21, Panchkula.

Property: Plot 118, Sector 35-A, Chandigarh (Plot/land), Plot 118, Sector 35-A; prior deed no. 2345..

Registered document no.: 2345, dated 1 April 2026, office: Sub-Registrar Chandigarh. Book/volume reference: Book 1, Volume 882.

Parties on instrument: R.K. Mehta to Harpreet Singh. Purpose: Title verification.

Please issue the certified index/summary record corresponding to this registered instrument, using the local registration-office equivalent if 'Index II' is not the terminology used for this record.

LEGAL BASIS

Section 55 of the Registration Act, 1908 requires every registration office, in Punjab and in Chandigarh alike, to keep four indexes of the documents it registers, and Index No. II holds the property particulars of the documents entered in Book No. 1, as the Inspector-General directs. Section 57 entitles any person to inspect Book No. 1 and its indexes and to obtain copies of the entries on payment of the fee. An index entry confirms that a document was registered and where to find it; it is not the document, and a certified copy of the deed itself is a separate application. In Chandigarh the indexes are kept by the Sub-Registrar at the 30 Bays Building, Ground Floor, Sector 17.
