What goes wrong — Jharkhand and Jamshedpur specifics
CNT and SPT Acts restrict tribal land transfer
The Chotanagpur Tenancy Act and Santhal Pargana Tenancy Act prohibit or heavily restrict transfer of tribal land to non-tribals across much of Jharkhand. A transaction breaching them is void and the land is liable to restoration to the original holder. This is the single most important check in the state and has no equivalent in most of India.
Khatiyan-based records and long chains
Jharkhand's records rest on old survey khatiyans, and reconciling a modern deed against them is frequently the substance of a title investigation.
Acceptance must occur during the donor's lifetime
Under Section 122 of the Transfer of Property Act a gift is void unless the donee accepts it while the donor is alive. Deeds without an express acceptance clause are a recurring cause of challenge.
A registered gift is generally irrevocable
Unlike a will, a registered gift deed cannot ordinarily be cancelled. Parents transferring to children should weigh a will or a settlement retaining a life interest.
Company-leased land across much of the city
Large parts of Jamshedpur sit on land leased to Tata Steel and administered through the company rather than a municipal corporation. Transfer, sub-lease and mutation follow the company's own process, which is materially different from ordinary conveyancing and is the defining feature of property here.
CNT and SPT restrictions in the surrounding district
Outside the company area, East Singhbhum falls under tenancy legislation restricting transfer of tribal land, with the same voidness consequences as elsewhere in Jharkhand.

Why are stamp duty figures not shown on this page?
