A.Dear Client,
Until and unless an undivided property is divided or partitioned through a decree of the Civil Court passed in a partition suit, the legal heirs are not considered owners of their share in the said property. Once a property is partitioned, it becomes 'self-acquired property' in the hands of the legal heirs who have received it, which gives them an unfettered right to deal and/or sell their share on payment of the stamp duty and registration fees on the value of their respective share in the property. The court fee for filing a partition suit is levied on the value of the total area/volume of the property and after the partition of the property, Stamp duty and registration fees on sale are charged on the market value or set forth value (whichever is higher) of the property belongs to each owner post partition. The Court fees and stamp duty are different things applicable for different purposes. While court fees are levied on the guideline value/MV of the entire undivided property for filing a partition suit, the stamp duty and registration fees are charged on the individual share owned by the legal heirs after partition in case of transfer of ownership of the respective share to others.
