Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Power of Attorney for property in Bangalore

Does a Power of Attorney need to be registered for property transactions in Bangalore?
Yes. A POA used for property transactions , including sale, purchase, or mortgage , must be registered at the Sub-Registrar's office in Bangalore to be legally valid. An unregistered POA cannot be used for registered property transactions. For NRIs, the POA must also be notarised and apostilled in the country of residence before registration in India.
Can property be sold using a Power of Attorney in Bangalore?
Yes, a registered specific POA that explicitly grants authority to sell a specific property is valid for property sale. However, the Supreme Court has held that a POA sale , where the transaction is only through POA without a registered sale deed in the buyer's name , does not transfer title. Buyers must ensure the actual sale deed is registered in their name.
What is the difference between a General and Specific POA for property?
A General POA grants broad powers to the attorney to manage all property affairs of the principal. A Specific POA is limited to one defined transaction , for example, to sell a specific flat at a specific address. For property transactions, a Specific POA is generally preferred as it limits the attorney's authority and reduces the risk of misuse.
How does an NRI grant Power of Attorney for property in Bangalore?
An NRI can execute a POA in their country of residence by getting it notarised by a local notary, then apostilled (for countries in the Hague Convention) or attested by the Indian Consulate or Embassy. Once in India, the POA must be adjudicated (stamp duty paid) and registered at the Sub-Registrar's office. Clawrity guides NRI clients through each step remotely.
Can a Power of Attorney be cancelled after it is given?
Yes. A POA can be revoked at any time by the principal by executing a Revocation Deed and registering it at the same Sub-Registrar's office where the original was registered. The attorney must also be notified in writing. We draft and register POA revocations and advise on steps to ensure the attorney is formally aware of the cancellation.
