Mumbai property registration goes online now!
Property registration in Mumbai goes online! Downloading of property registration documents in Mumbai will be allowed very soon by the inspector general of registration (IGR).
Now, citizens do not have to wait in queue to visit registration offices to get hard copies of the transactions.
The departments at present receives four lakh requests approximately seeking copies of documents of transactions from the sub-registrar offices every year.
The online downloading of documents for properties in Mumbai will be a first ever service in the country and will be launched in Mumbai. Scanned copies of any property under the Mumbai municipal jurisdiction and details of ownership between January 2002 and December 2011 will be available for downloading.
The documents that are registered in 2012 are part of iSarita software which is developed for IGR office. The new and the old data will be synchronised together and will be made available to the buyers for any property registered from 2002 onwards.
The service will soon be available for Navi Mumbai and Pune as well. The downloading procedure is kept very simple. Every time, a property is registered, the transaction is kept with the sub-registrar office with a unique registration number. Due to which, every property deal will be available with the IGR and is, in turn, available for downloading as well.
The scheme will be available under ‘e-search’ category on the IGR website which is as follows: http://igrmaharashtra.gov.in/ on a pilot basis.
However, the service will be free for a limited period and will be available as charged service.
With the coming of this service, the load on sub-registrar offices will reduce. The IGR office uses a state provided data centre and requires 40 terabyte space, while the pilot project only needs 5 terabyte.
