Process to add a co-owner applicable stamp duty  and registration fees Process to add a co-owner applicable stamp duty and registration fees

1 month ago

My mother owns as loan free 1 RK (192 sq ft) studio apartment home in Maharashtra's Talegaon Dabhade (Varale) area. She wants to add me as a co-owner on the property. That's because she does not have time to look after the house, tenants, and attend society meetings. I wish to know the process, applicable stamp duty, and registration fees applicable on this transaction in my state.

A.Dear Client,

To include a co-owner, a new deed must be drafted and registered at the sub-registrar's office as per the Transfer of Property Act to ensure legal validity. This can be accomplished by executing either a sale deed or a gift deed, transferring a specific portion of the property to another individual, thereby making them a co-owner.
