What is a Conveyance Deed?
A conveyance deed is the legal instrument that transfers the right, title and interest in immovable property from one party to another. It is a broad category rather than a single document — sale deeds, gift deeds, exchange deeds and relinquishment deeds are all forms of conveyance, and for apartment complexes the promoter's transfer of the land and building to a cooperative housing society (or a society-driven deemed conveyance) is a conveyance too. Whatever its form, the deed records the parties, the schedule of the property, the consideration and the seller's assurance that the property is free from encumbrances, and it becomes legally effective only once it is stamped and registered.
Until a conveyance deed is executed and registered, ownership does not pass in the eyes of the law — a paid-for property held only on an agreement to sell or an allotment letter leaves the buyer exposed to competing claims, fraud and disputes with the seller's heirs. A properly drafted, correctly stamped and duly registered deed gives you a clear and marketable title, becomes a permanent public record at the Sub-Registrar's office, and is the foundation for mutating municipal records, obtaining a home loan, and one day selling or gifting the property without a cloud on the title.

Key Benefits of a Registered Conveyance Deed
Absolute Transfer of Ownership
A conveyance deed is the definitive instrument that legally vests the right, title and interest in the property in you. Without it, even a fully paid buyer holding only an agreement to sell does not completely or legally own the property.
Legal Protection Against Fraud
Once registered with the Sub-Registrar the deed becomes a public record — preventing the seller from selling the same property twice and safeguarding you against future claims by the seller's legal heirs.
Clear & Marketable Title
A registered conveyance removes all doubt over who owns the property, giving you a clear and marketable title that is essential to resell, gift, or pledge it as collateral for a mortgage or home loan.
Facilitates Mutation (Khata Transfer)
A registered deed is what you produce to mutate municipal and revenue records, so that property tax, electricity and water connections are officially transferred into your name.
What We Need to Register Your Deed
How We Register Your Conveyance Deed
We treat every conveyance as a title transaction, not a form-filling exercise — verifying that the seller can actually pass clean title before a rupee of stamp duty is paid, then carrying the deed through drafting, execution and registration.
1Step 1: Title Search & Due Diligence
We examine the Encumbrance Certificate, the chain of title and the revenue records, and run a litigation and mortgage check so that any charge, lien or defect surfaces before you commit.
2Step 2: Deed Drafting & Stamp-Duty Assessment
We draft the conveyance to precisely capture the parties, property schedule, consideration and encumbrance-free covenants, and compute the exact stamp duty on the higher of consideration or circle rate for e-stamping.
3Step 3: Execution & Sub-Registrar Registration
All parties and two witnesses appear before the jurisdictional Sub-Registrar for signing, biometric capture and payment of registration fees — the deed being presented well within the four-month statutory window.
4Step 4: Registered Deed & Mutation
We collect the registered deed and Index II, then initiate mutation of the municipal and revenue records so that property tax, utilities and the Khata reflect your name.
Deed drafting and stamp-duty computation typically take 3 to 5 working days; registration itself is usually completed in a single Sub-Registrar appointment, with the registered deed and Index II available within roughly 7 to 15 working days thereafter.

The Statutory Framework Behind Your Deed
Registration Act, 1908
Section 17 makes registration of any instrument transferring immovable property worth over ₹100 compulsory, and Section 49 makes an unregistered conveyance inadmissible as evidence of title. The deed must be presented to the Sub-Registrar within four months of execution.
Indian Stamp Act & State Duty
Stamp duty is a state levy — commonly 4% to 7% of value plus applicable cess or surcharge — charged on the higher of the consideration or the circle-rate / ready-reckoner value. A deficiently stamped deed can be impounded and is not fully admissible until the shortfall and penalty are paid.
Transfer of Property Act, 1882
Section 54 requires that a sale of immovable property valued at ₹100 or more be made only through a registered instrument, and the Act governs how ownership, rights and interests validly pass from seller to buyer.
Deemed Conveyance (Flats & RERA)
Where a promoter fails to convey the land and building to the apartment owners, flat purchasers may secure deemed conveyance under state Ownership-of-Flats legislation read with RERA, 2016, which obliges the promoter to execute conveyance to the society within the prescribed period.
