Property paperwork questions

Common questions about deeds, registration and title in Kolkata.

What are the stamp duty and registration charges in Kolkata?

In Kolkata and other municipal areas of West Bengal, stamp duty is 6% for property valued up to Rs 1 crore and 7% above Rs 1 crore, plus a 1% registration fee. It is calculated on the market (circle-rate) value or the agreement value, whichever is higher. Rural areas are charged 5% and 6% respectively.

Is stamp duty lower for women buyers in West Bengal?

No. Unlike some states, West Bengal charges the same stamp duty and 1% registration fee regardless of the buyer's gender.

What is property mutation and why does it matter?

Mutation is the updating of municipal or panchayat records to show you as the new owner after a purchase or inheritance. It is essential for paying property tax in your name and proving possession. We file it, follow up and deliver the certificate.

How do I check a property's title is clean before buying?

We trace the chain of ownership, check for existing mortgages, encumbrances or litigation, and verify the documents against official records — then give you a plain-language report on whether the title is safe to buy.

What documents are needed to register a property in West Bengal?

Usually the sale deed, PAN and Aadhaar of buyer and seller, passport photos, the property's previous documents and records, and proof of stamp duty payment — presented at an e-appointment with the Sub-Registrar. We prepare everything and guide you through it.

How long is a rent agreement valid, and must it be registered?

Most rental agreements are made for 11 months, which avoids compulsory registration. Any lease of 12 months or more must be registered. We draft and notarise both types with clear terms on deposit, notice and maintenance.

What is the difference between a sale deed and an agreement to sell?

An agreement to sell is a promise to transfer the property on agreed future conditions; the sale deed is the document that actually transfers ownership and must be registered. We draft and register both correctly.

Can you handle the whole registration at the Sub-Registrar's office?

Yes. We book the e-appointment, arrange stamp duty payment, present the deed and collect the registered document. You attend once to sign — we handle the rest of the queue.
