EC requirement and previous sale deeds for how many years
22-Oct-2023 (In Property Law)
How many years EC is required in the case of purchase of agri land. 30 years is ok? one lawyer is asking property documents starting from 1912 to establish the correct ownership. No one will have documents for 100 years and in case the property transfers happened multiple times in the last 60-70 years, how long we need to go to verify the correct ownership.
In this case, An EC is needed to know the past property transactions while buying a property. It further states that the property is free from all the liabilities. Through an EC a buyer can ensure that the property has a free title and is free from all the dues based on each documents we diced about years. I have a vast practice in that area you can seek my assistance in your matter.

What is the process of EC?
Visit the Sub-Registrars Office in the jurisdiction of your property. Send the completed Form 22. Enter details like the name of the buyer and seller, the property details, what type of document (in this instance, EC) you want, etc.
What is the use of EC certificate?
The Encumbrance Certificate is a vital document that proves ownership of a property. This document is required when purchasing or selling property, or applying for a mortgage or loan secured by property. It confirms that the property in question is free from any economic or legal obligations.
How long is EC certificate valid?
An individual can get an Encumbrance Certificate on a property for up to 30 year.
Normally 30 years of EC would suffice. But for perfect verification one needs papers from day one from the existence of any property, impossible in most cases. Practically, a good amount of information may be gathered from EC from the past 30 years.
