MUTATION

Dear client, 

Firstly, The buyer can register the property in their name and obtain a direct mutation, as mutation is an administrative revenue record rather than a document of title. You do not need to mutate the property into your own name before selling, as long as you establish an unbroken chain of ownership using your father’s original title deed, his death certificate, a legal heir certificate, and the registered Gift Deed from your mother and sister.

Moreover, your mother and sister must execute a registered Gift or Relinquishment Deed with full stamp duty, as an unregistered agreement holds no legal validity for property transfer. Additionally, all SAF and property tax dues must be fully cleared up to the current date and once the Sale Deed is executed and registered, the buyer can present it alongside the supporting title documents and tax receipts directly to the municipal or revenue authority to mutate the property into their name.

I hope this answer helps, if you have any other query kindly do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you.

Dear Client,

Based on your legal query, I suggest you my legal opinion. That you can sell the property to the third party because you have all ownership, title, interest of the property as after the demise of your father the property goes to the Class I heirs that is you, your mother and sister, you received half of the property through succession and the rest by executing the Gift Deed. Now being the sole owner of the property you have the right to sell the property to third party and after all the documents as well as SAF is completed then after the transfer the third party can register and mutate the property in their name

Hope this answer helps!
