Why you need it

When you need it

A deceased person still appears in a record despite completed succession. Distinguish a stale clerical entry from an UNDECIDED inheritance — don't delete the name without entering lawful successors; Punjab's separate inheritance-mutation route means this isn't a shortcut around it. States the death certificate, prior mutation/deed/order, and resulting holder/share.

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 a transfer instrument, so outside the Stamp Act, 1899. An affidavit filed is separately chargeable under Article 4, Schedule I-A (Punjab); a Chandigarh Estate Office correction likewise bears none.

Registration

Not registrable — outside s.17, Registration Act, 1908. A mistake inside a REGISTERED deed is different — fixed by its own rectification deed.

Notarisation

Not required, unless the authority asks for an affidavit.

Witnesses

Not required; documentary comparison and verification matter more.
