What goes wrong — Punjab and Jalandhar specifics
The exemption is notification-based, not statutory
Punjab exempts gifts to blood relatives from stamp duty, but the exemption and its relative list have been varied by notification over time. The position at the date of registration governs, and this is the single most important thing to confirm for a Punjab gift.
Registration alone does not make you the recorded owner
A registered deed transfers title between the parties, but revenue and municipal records continue to show the previous owner until mutation completes.
Deed-to-record mismatches cause most rejections
Differences in name spelling, extent or boundary between the deed and the record are the usual reason applications are returned.
Very high NRI ownership and PoA-based transactions
The Doaba belt has one of India's highest concentrations of NRI property owners, and a large share of transactions run through powers of attorney. PoA scope, attestation and revocation status need checking as routine.
Long-vacant NRI properties and encroachment
Properties left unoccupied for years attract encroachment and adverse possession risk. Twelve years of continuous hostile possession can extinguish an owner's title.

Khata Transfer FAQs — Jalandhar
I live abroad — can I gift or sell my Jalandhar property remotely?
Yes, through a properly executed and attested Power of Attorney. Given how common this is in the Doaba belt, we verify the PoA's scope, attestation and whether it has been revoked as a standard step — defective PoAs are a frequent cause of failed registration here.
My property has been vacant for years — is that a problem?
It can be. Continuous, open and hostile possession by someone else for twelve years can extinguish your title through adverse possession. Long-vacant NRI properties in this belt are the most exposed, and periodic documented inspection matters.
Which Sub-Registrar Office covers Model Town or Urban Estate?
Central Jalandhar is served by the Jalandhar-1 and Jalandhar-2 offices, with Nakodar, Phillaur, Shahkot, Adampur and Kartarpur covering the district.
Is a gift to a blood relative exempt from stamp duty here?
Punjab exempts gifts to blood relatives from stamp duty, subject to the notification in force at the time. Only the registration fee applies. We confirm the current position before quoting.
