Is registration of agreement required or not


21-Mar-2023 (In Civil Law)
Sir/Madam My father sold a shop over his property by a registered deed almost 30 yrs back. Shop was never operated since then and now I am developing same property through a builder. I have to hand over same area of 300 sq.ft shop to the said owner from my share of developed area, for that we are going to execute an agreement on a stamp paper of Rs.50.00 only. Is this agreement requires to be registered ? If yes kindly let me know the fee to be paid for registration.

Well ! The circumstances as explained, your father has already sold out a portion of land through registered deed
But at present you are going to develop such property including that sold portion also.No doubt, there is mutual understanding between the parties with certain terms & condition. Of course, According to Transfer of property Act a deed of agreement must be registered .which holds evidenciary value in the eye of law. It will lead undisputed , peacefully success to your plan.

As per the latest judgement of Super Court registration is required for any execution of agreement, if valuation of property is more than 100 rupee that facts has also been enshrined in Indian Registration Act. Ergo, if you register your agreement then it would be beneficial for you. Nominal fee is required for registration.Free free to call me.

Dear, Every agreement dealing with builder must be registered. .because of its legal safety. .. if any despute arose in future , you must have preparation for it... so far as the fee is payable on it is determined by the local authority i.e. The registrar of the district. A 50 rupees non judicial stamp is sufficient. .Thanks.
