Why you need it

When you need it

For an existing escalation clause with the next increase due — cite the clause, old/new rent and date, not just announce an increase. Not for imposing a NEW increase absent a clause (use a Rent Revision Addendum instead).

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 — records a tenancy fact, not a new interest. New rights created are stamped on their true character.

Registration

Not compulsory — not a s.17(1)(d) registrable lease, Registration Act, 1908.

Notarisation

Not required — a dated signature or delivery record works better.

Witnesses

Not required, unless recast as a separate witnessed undertaking.
