Whenever we buy a house, land or any other property, we get peace of mind by getting it registered in our name. But is registration alone enough to give you ownership rights over the land? The answer is no.
You must have heard of many such cases where one person sold the same land to multiple people. Or the property you have bought already has a lot of debt. After the property is registered in your name, you will also have to pay that debt. This means that registration alone is not enough. Along with this, you will also have to get another important document.
Do check for Property Mutation
Many people consider name transfer and sale deed to be the same. But both are different. People think that once the registration is done, the property will be transferred in their name and they do not pay attention to the transfer. Even if you have got the registration done, no property will be considered yours until you transfer it. You should check in advance that in whose name the property you have bought or are going to buy is. Also, no one has taken any loan in the name of that property.
How to Transfer
There are mainly three types of real estate. In which agricultural land, industrial land and residential land are classified. The name transfer of all three lands is different. The transfer of cultivable land is done by the Patwari of your area. The transfer of industrial land will be done from the Industrial Development Center present in your district. The name transfer of residential land will be done by the Municipality, Municipal Corporation, or Gram Panchayat of your area. Whenever you buy a property, you should go to the concerned office with all the documents related to the purchase and get the property transferred. So that later no one claims his right on your land.
Documents required for mutation
The following documents are required for the mutation process:
Copy of the property registry (Registry copy)
Property tax receipt
Your identity card (ID card)

Consequences of not finding a mutation
Failure to transfer can have serious consequences:
The property will not be registered in your name in government records.
It may be difficult to sell or mortgage the property in the future.
The possibility of legal disputes increases.
