Relinquishment Deed Registration in India

Q: Is it mandatory to register a relinquishment deed?

Yes, registration of a relinquishment deed is mandatory under the Registration Act, 1908. Without registration, the deed has no legal validity and cannot be used as proof in property matters.

Q: Does a relinquishment deed attract stamp duty?

Yes, stamp duty is applicable on a relinquishment deed. The amount depends on the share of the property being relinquished, the property's value, and the relationship between the parties.

Q: What is the time limit for a relinquishment deed?

There is no specific statutory time limit, but it is advisable to execute and register the deed as soon as possible after the co-owner decides to relinquish their share, especially in inheritance cases.

Q: Who Can Execute a Relinquishment Deed and for What Type of Property?

A relinquishment deed can be executed for jointly owned immovable property, such as inherited property or property held by co-owners. Any legal heir or co-owner can relinquish their share in favor of another legal heir or co-owner.

Q: Is relinquishment a transfer of property taxable?

If the relinquishment is done without any monetary consideration and between specified relatives, it may not attract capital gains tax. However, tax implications may arise depending on the nature of the transaction.

Q: Is the relinquishment deed enough to sell a property?

No, a relinquishment deed only transfers the share from one co-owner to another. To sell the entire property, all owners must agree and execute a sale deed in favor of the buyer.

Q: What are the grounds on which a person can revoke a relinquishment deed?

A registered relinquishment deed can be revoked only under certain conditions such as mutual consent, fraud, coercion, or misrepresentation—usually with court intervention.

Q: What is the difference between a release deed and a relinquishment deed?

Both serve similar purposes, but a relinquishment deed is typically used among legal heirs, while a release deed can be broader, including any joint holders giving up their share, such as in partnership properties.

Q: Can a Relinquishment Deed Be Challenged in Court?

Yes, it can be challenged if there is fraud, misrepresentation, coercion, or if it was signed without full consent or proper registration. Such cases are handled under Section 31 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963.
