My family has signed a release deed pertaining to a property in Mumbai, Maharastra. The family members reside in Patna, India and Georgia, USA respectively. They are the legal heirs of the 1st name holder of my property/flat in Mumbai. Question: 1) Can a pre-dated release deed be registered now, in 2019? 2) do the family members have to present in Mumbai for the registration to occur?

Respected sir/madam

Any document have to registered within 4 months. from execution. In your case if you wish to registered pre dated release deed in 2019 then you have to pay penalty for that.

In your case all parties have to visit Mumbai for registration of release deed at the place where your property situated.

This is my response to you:
1. Yes they have to be physically present;
2. Or they can enter into POA so that another person can act on their behalf;
3. It is preferable that they appear one day the registrar office;
4. Consult a local lawyer and take steps.
