Common questions
Frequently asked questions
A complete due diligence check typically covers the original sale deed or conveyance deed, chain of title documents, khatauni (revenue record), encumbrance certificate from the sub-registrar, approved site plan, mutation entries and any court orders affecting the property. The chamber will assess the specific documents required for your transaction.
Civil suits can take varying lengths of time depending on complexity, evidence and court scheduling. Interim reliefs such as injunctions can sometimes be obtained early in the proceedings to protect the property while the main suit is pending. The chamber will give you a frank assessment of likely timelines once the facts are known.
Yes. A registered or unregistered agreement to sell can generally be enforced by filing a suit for specific performance before the civil court. The court can direct the seller to execute the sale deed or, in appropriate cases, award damages. Time limits apply, so early legal advice is important.
Mutation, known as intkal or dakhil-kharij in Uttarakhand revenue records, is the process of recording a change of ownership in the government land register (khatauni) after a sale, inheritance or gift. While mutation itself does not create title, it is an important piece of evidence of possession and is required for many government transactions. The chamber assists with the entire revenue procedure before the Patwari, SDM and relevant authorities.
If your builder is registered under RERA, you can file a complaint before the Uttarakhand Real Estate Regulatory Authority (URERA) for delayed possession, structural defects, deviation from the sanctioned plan or non-disclosure of information. Relief can include interest on the amount paid, refund or completion orders. The chamber can advise on the strength of your complaint and assist in filing.
