It’s ok to do a sale agreement in maiden name even if the name is changed after marriage It’s ok to do a sale agreement in maiden name even if the name is changed after marriage

1 year ago

My wife has a property in her maiden name - Meena Patel, which she wants to sell in her maiden name, hence is it ok to do a sale agreement in her Maiden name - Meena Patel.
I am her husband, and her name is changed currently from Meena Patel to Meena Sharma, and we have updated Adhaar and PAN Cards with the new name post marriage.
Question :- She is selling the property, hence Will it be ok, to do a sale agreement with maiden name -Meena Patel, because she has her original Adhaar and pan as per old name also, And the bank A/C is active with maiden name to accept Sale proceeds. Hence, during registration there is a biometric process where there should not be a mismatch at registrar office on the day of registration with buyer. Or is it that the registrar office don’t care as to what is the current name online as per Adhaar and PAN system currently. Therefore is it ok to go ahead with maiden name. Please advice. Thanks !

A.Dear Sir,
Better to write as Meena Patel @ Meena Sharma to avoid future complications. No body will object for said names as she is known by both the names.

A.Dear Client,
It is not okay at all to go ahead with the maiden name that reflects the past status of the Seller in the present contract/agreement especially when her entire maiden ID records are corrected/amended post-marriage and moreover when the registration of the property is now done through biometric verification that will show mismatch with an amended record making the process of registration withheld or cancelled.

So when an agreement to sale or Deed of conveyance is executed on the current date being one and identical person, the old status of the person which was already changed post marriage has no role to play as of now.
