Common situations explained
Property sold to an outsider
Use a Sale Deed where ownership is transferred against consideration, after verifying title chain, dues and stamp duty.
Transfer to son, daughter, parents, spouse, brother or sister
A Transfer Deed within blood relation may apply if the relationship falls within the recognised category and other legal conditions are satisfied.
Transfer to daughter’s children
Do not assume exemption. The expression “pota-poti” may not include “nata-natin”. This needs careful verification before execution.

A Gift Deed may apply, but stamp duty can be payable if the relationship is not in the exempted or concessional category.

Common Questions
Which deed is required to transfer property to son in Gurgaon?
A Transfer Deed within blood relation may be suitable if the transfer is without sale consideration and the relationship falls within the recognised category. Relationship proof, property documents, stamp duty position and local registration requirements should be checked.
Is Gift Deed and Transfer Deed within blood relation the same?
No. A Gift Deed is a transfer without sale consideration. A Transfer Deed within blood relation is generally used where the transfer is between recognised close relations and may have concessional or exempt stamp duty treatment, subject to applicable rules.
Is every family transfer exempt from stamp duty in Haryana?
No. Every family transfer is not automatically exempt. The exemption or concession depends on the exact relationship and applicable government notification or rules.
Are daughter’s children included in the Haryana blood relation exemption?
This should not be assumed. The Hindi expression “pota-poti” may refer to son’s son and son’s daughter and may not include “nata-natin”, meaning daughter’s son and daughter’s daughter. Legal verification is advised.
Which deed is used when property is sold to a buyer?
A Sale Deed is generally used when property is transferred to a buyer against sale consideration.
Which deed is used when a co-owner gives up share?
A Release Deed or Relinquishment Deed may be used when a co-owner or legal heir gives up his or her share in favour of another co-owner or family member.
Which document is used after death of property owner?
If there is a Will, mutation or transfer may be claimed on the basis of the Will. If there is no Will, legal heir succession, mutation, relinquishment or family settlement may be required depending on facts.
Can GPA transfer ownership of property?
Generally, GPA only authorises a person to act on behalf of the owner. It is not a substitute for a registered Sale Deed for ownership transfer.
Is DTCP NOC required for every deed in Haryana?
No. DTCP or DTP NOC depends on land type, location, controlled area status, area of land, colony status and nature of transaction.
What should I send before visiting for deed registration?
Usually you should first send the previous ownership document, property ID, relationship proof if family transfer is involved, Aadhaar and PAN of parties and details of the proposed transaction.
