Stilt parking and ground floor terminology


19-May-2025 (In Property Law)
I have a upper ground floor flat in a 4 storey building. The building has a basement, a stilt parking as well. In my sale deed they have written my floor as UG floor and parking at ground floor instead of stilt parking and the sanctioned plan also uses GF for my floor there is no mention of the word UG floor. Now can this create a problem that they used the terms interchangeably. The owner of first floor also has same word for parking at ground floor. How to rectify it? It is MCD sanctioned plan

Approved building plans from the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) typically permit a basement, stilt parking, and four additional floors. As stilt parking is not classified as a distinct floor, the level immediately above it is designated as the ground or upper ground floor, followed by three subsequent floors. The floor nomenclature established in the initial sale deed should be adhered to in subsequent transactions. While this discrepancy can be addressed in future sale deeds, executing a rectification or clarification deed to align the floor designations would be the most prudent approach. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require further clarification or assistance with this matter.

in such a case you will need to get the clerical error rectified from the sub registar where the registry of the property had taken place. you will need to approach the sub registrar and request for rectification.
