Tout-Free Property Registration By Year End

In a major revamp of existing property registration system, the Delhi government will put in place a transparent mechanism by end of the year under which people will be able to access hassle-free services in all 13 sub-registrar offices without any jurisdictional issue.

The aim of the ambitious project— first of its kind in the country— is to offer people a tout-free and seamless property registration experience through a secured online platform, which will replace the six-decade-old current system.

Under the new mechanism, people from any area of the city will be able to get their properties registered in any one of the 13 sub-registrar offices and they will be able to check genuineness of the properties and ownership details. Urban development and revenue minister Arvinder Singh said the mechanism will offer “great relief ” to people in getting properties registered.
