What goes wrong — Rajasthan and Jodhpur specifics
A husband-to-wife gift attracts no stamp duty at all
Rajasthan exempts gifts from a husband to his wife from stamp duty entirely — an unusually generous position with no equivalent in most states. Where a transfer within a family is being planned, routing it through the spouse can be materially cheaper, though it must reflect a genuine intention and not a device.
Daughters are coparceners in their own right
Since the 2005 amendment to the Hindu Succession Act and Vineeta Sharma (2020), daughters hold coparcenary rights equal to sons regardless of whether the father was alive in 2005. Partitions drafted on the older understanding are a live source of litigation.
Every co-sharer must join or the deed can be reopened
A partition omitting a coparcener or heir — including one who is a minor, absent or estranged — is vulnerable to challenge. Identifying the complete set is the substance of the work.
Oral family arrangements do not convey title
Families often rely on an oral partition. It will not be accepted by banks or buyers, and a registered instrument is what makes the division effective against third parties.
Former princely-state grant land in the old city
Jodhpur's walled city and surrounds contain land originating in Marwar-era grants and jagirs whose conditions occasionally persist into modern chains and require tracing beyond the standard search period.
Siwai chak and government land on the periphery
Peripheral land recorded as siwai chak or government land is periodically encroached and marketed. Occupation creates no transferable title.
