For transferring property do we need to register documents or notarize

Only through registered power of attorney, property can be transferred. After the suraj lamp judgement, transfer of immovable property through power of attorney has to pass through some strict tests. I would suggest you to obtain all other documents along with power of attorney.

You want to register which documents..
Have you purchased the property from the owner staying in Gurgaon.. is is freehold or leaehold property// if the property has been transferred in owners name by way of notarized documents, then such transfer is not valid as the transfer of immovable property is always done on the registered documents you have to pay the stamp duty on it..

In law no immoveable property can be transferred without valid registered documents. Notarized documents like Power of Attorney etc. can not validly create interests in any immoveable property. However, a validly executed documents can be subsequently got registered within the prescribed period of time under the Registration Act. One can advise you in detail only if all of the documents are provided to him. Before forming any final opinion, the recent notification whereby registration was opened, may also be required to be considered.

For a valid transfer of title, a sale deed is required to be executed which has to be registered before the concerned sub-registrar. Since, you are in possession of only notarized documents, you would have to approach the mutation authorities in Uttarakhand for execution and registration of necessary documents to confirm your title. You may require no-objection affidavit from the original owner and/ or your family members. Once, mutation is carried out, you would have a valid title.
