I've inherited a property. Help me get it transferred into my name.

Getting your name on the deed requires state-specific filings, stamp duty and registration. We manage the whole process from right to transfer.

Let’s talk

Your situation shapes the process

The transfer process depends on whether the previous owner left a will, and whether you are the sole heir or one of several.

With a will
The will establishes your right. We help validate it and execute the formal transfer.
Without a will
If the owner died intestate, their immovable assets pass to all Class 1 legal heirs. We establish who they are, secure the required documentation, and manage the transfer.
As one of multiple heirs
If you are one of several heirs and want the property fully transferred, additional steps are needed to document and separate each share.

Whichever applies, the transfer must be registered with the appropriate state government authority before it becomes legally valid. Registration involves stamp duty calculated as a percentage of the property's commercial value, and the rate varies from state to state.

How we manage the transfer, end to end

1
We establish your legal right
We review the will or succession documents and confirm your entitlement before anything else begins.
2
We verify the title
We check the current records to ensure the property is clear of disputes, encumbrances or contested claims that could delay the transfer.
3
We prepare the instrument
Depending on your situation, we draft the appropriate instrument: a Gift Deed, Transfer Deed, Relinquishment Deed, or inheritance transfer documentation.
4
We register the instrument
We file the instrument with the relevant state authority and pay the applicable stamp duty on your behalf.
5
We apply for mutation
Once registration is complete, we apply to have your name entered in the revenue records, so your ownership is formally and permanently documented.

Your transfer questions, answered

Does the transfer process vary depending on which state the property is in?

Yes. India's transfer laws are state governed, so the applicable rules, documents and stamp duty rates all vary. We have experience across India and manage the specifics for you.

What if the property was never formally put in my parent's name?

This is common. We first establish and record your parent's or relative's ownership before it can be transferred to you. We handle that as part of the same process.

What is mutation and why does it matter?

Mutation is the process of updating the revenue records to reflect the new owner. Without it, you may not be able to sell, mortgage or manage the property effectively.

Do I need to travel to India for any of this?

In most cases, the process can be managed through a Power of Attorney, which we help you prepare and register. If your specific situation requires a physical presence, we will tell you early.

How long does a property transfer take?

It varies by state and by how straightforward your documents are. We give you an honest estimate once we have reviewed your situation.
