GPA for consenting witnesses GPA for consenting witnesses

3 years ago

Builder X has developed a society in Bangalore where a couple Mr and Mrs Y (resident of Mumbai) bought an apartment. Before registration of the apartment, Mr and Mrs Y sold the property to me and then the builder did an internal transfer via an assignment agreement. The builder will be registering the property in my name with Mr and Mrs Y as consenting witness at sub-regiatrar office.

Now Mr. and Mrs Y can’t travel to sub registrar office and are doing a GPA so that a relative can appear at the sub registrar office as consenting witness. Is there any issue with this process? Is there any specific format for the GPA. Does the GPA need to be registered at any specific sub registrar office?

A.Hi,
the person having a GPA acts on behalf of the owner, so here the person having the power of attorney can sign the documents on behalf of the actual owners.

A.ideally a GPA should be at place where is property.
but this GPA is only for witness.
Builder is directly registering property to you so you can choose your own witnesses.
otherwise GPA is also valid for consenting witness.

A.hi,
since Mr. and Mrs. y are appointing a person to represent them, there is no problem. they can choose a GPA and such person can act on their behalf.
