Online registration for purchase of flats
The state is offering online registration for new flat purchases and has made the Aadhaar card mandatory both for the buyer and the seller under the scheme. On Sunday, revenue minister Balasaheb Thorat will flag off the first e-registration scheme at Mulund.
Till now Marathon Realty for their Panvel project, Dreamcity Developers for their Dahanu project and Ajmera Housing at Wadala have opted for the e-registration scheme was said by Shikar Pardeshi who is the inspector-general of registration and collection of stamps. The registration of a flat requires preparation of documents by the stamp duty department, authentication by taking a photograph and thumb imprint at the registration office and then payment.
The stamp duty for flat registration is 5 percent of the cost of the flat and Rs 30,000 is charged as registration fees. While the scheme is not mandatory, but the fact that flats can be registered with the government on the same day as the purchase may be beneficial to buyers. Pardeshi stated that they have enabled builders to register the flats online from their offices. This will help buyers as they won’t have to take the day off.
