General Court Affidavit

At a glance

Price: ₹199 · GST included
Stamp duty: Where this affidavit is filed in a pending court proceeding, it is ordinarily exempt from the nominal affidavit duty under Article 4, Schedule I-A (Punjab) or Schedule I (Chandigarh), and instead carries only the court's own court-fee stamp, fixed by the court office — confirm the current figure at the filing counter.
Registration: Not registrable in either jurisdiction — an affidavit creates no right in property or otherwise, so Section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908 does not reach it.
Witnesses: None required by law — the deponent's signature and the attesting officer's jurat are the whole formality.

Why you need it

When you need it

A general-purpose sworn affidavit for use in support of a petition, application or proceeding before a court, tribunal or government authority in Punjab or Chandigarh, or as a standalone sworn statement of facts. The deponent states the facts in their own words; this template supplies the caption, oath, jurat and verification around them. Where this library already carries a purpose-built affidavit for the exact subject — identity, title to property, loss of a document, and others — use that one instead; it is written to match the specific proforma an authority is likely to expect. Use this general one only where none fits.

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

Where this affidavit is filed in a pending court proceeding, it is ordinarily exempt from the nominal affidavit duty under Article 4, Schedule I-A (Punjab) or Schedule I (Chandigarh), and instead carries only the court's own court-fee stamp, fixed by the court office — confirm the current figure at the filing counter. Where it is sworn for use before a government authority rather than a court, Article 4 applies instead: a nominal fixed duty that authorities in Punjab commonly print as Rs 25, though no official table carries a specific affidavit entry — confirm at the counter; Chandigarh applies its own Schedule I figure, and its Estate Office accepts a notarised affidavit in place of one attested by an Executive Magistrate. Buy the stamp paper or e-stamp in the deponent's own name.

Registration

Not registrable in either jurisdiction — an affidavit creates no right in property or otherwise, so Section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908 does not reach it.

Notarisation

Required — an unsworn affidavit is only a signed statement and carries no weight as one. Sworn before a Notary Public under the Notaries Act, 1952, an Oath Commissioner, or, where filed in a pending case, the Oath Commissioner or Reader attached to that court; the deponent appears in person with photo identification, and the attesting officer records a register serial number on the affidavit, which should be noted on the document.

Witnesses

None required by law — the deponent's signature and the attesting officer's jurat are the whole formality. Some courts and authorities nonetheless expect the affidavit to be filed together with photo identification or a document supporting the facts sworn to; check the specific forum's practice before filing.
