Overview

At Juris & Nova Chambers, our Real Estate & Urban Development practice focuses on the legal and regulatory aspects of property transactions, development projects, construction, and urban infrastructure. We assist individuals, property owners, developers, builders, investors, and businesses in navigating property-related legal and regulatory requirements.

Our practice covers property due diligence, title verification, acquisition and sale of property, development agreements, construction contracts, joint ventures, leases, and regulatory approvals. We also advise on matters involving planning authorities, development regulations, land use, building permissions, and other urban development requirements.

Where disputes arise, we represent clients in matters relating to title, possession, boundaries, development agreements, construction, delayed projects, landlord-tenant issues, and property transactions before appropriate courts, tribunals, and authorities.

Questions

Frequently asked

Five to seven working days once documents are complete. Where records must be obtained from a sub-registrar or revenue office, we tell you the additional time before starting.

Yes. We work through a properly drafted and attested power of attorney, share verified scans at every stage, and arrange registration through your named attorney holder.

It is strongly advisable for high-value transactions. Registration gives your agreement evidentiary strength and protects you against a second sale during the payment period.

No. Patta is a revenue record evidencing possession and revenue entitlement; ownership flows from the registered title documents. We recommend transferring the patta into your name promptly after every purchase, gift or inheritance so the two records stay aligned.

Yes. Following the 2005 amendment to the Hindu Succession Act and subsequent Supreme Court rulings, daughters are coparceners with rights equal to sons, subject to the facts of each case.

Not on its own. An EC only records registered transactions at that sub-registrar office for the period requested — unregistered agreements, older transactions and entries filed at a different jurisdiction may not appear. We always read the EC against the title chain rather than on its own.

A standard sale deed attracts 7% stamp duty and a 2% registration fee, both computed on the higher of the sale consideration or the guideline value — so budget roughly 9% of the property's value on top of the price. Gifts and settlements to family members, and partitions among co-owners, carry lower concessional rates.

Yes. RERA and consumer forums routinely award interest and compensation for the period of delay where the agreement's promised timeline has been breached, and we pursue whichever forum offers the more realistic recovery.
