Name change/correction Property
2 years ago
Hi,
We bought a property (house) in April 1996 in Hyderabad. Now as we are thinking of selling the property, we realized that the name in the registration document is a little incorrect and needs to be changed/corrected.
Can you advise what is the procedure for this & what documents are required? We do not live in India anymore.
Thanks & Regards,
A.Dear Client,
You need an affidavit to be made for name change by a notary containing your current name, the new name, current address and reason for the name change. The affidavit needs to be signed by two persons of gazette officer rank. Advertise name change in local newspaper and get the information published in Gazette of India by sending these two above document i.e. affidavit and newspaper advertisement to department of publication in ministry of urban development. Then, owner of property needs to visit land registry office to register new name with all self attested documents and after the inquiry of land registry office they will change the name in their records.
Thank You.
