The Registration (Amendment) Bill, 2013
The Key Amendments proposed are:
- Presently, 'Book 4 - Miscelleneous Register' which contains details of all Registered Documents (except Wills) is not open for access. The said Book 4 is proposed to be made open to inspection by the public.
- To ensure gender equity, documents relating to adoption of daughters along with sons are required to be registered.
- Registration of documents shall be allowed anywhere in a given State or Union Territory.
- As the computerization of Land records is making rapid strides, Electronic Registration of documents shall be made available.
- Documents of Power of Attorney's, Developers/Promoters Agreements and any other agreements relating to sale of development of Immovable Property now needs to be mandatorily registered to minimize cases of Document Forgery.
- Presently, the Sub-Registrar's Office has no power to refuse registration of documents which allows unauthorized individuals to get false registrations done, accordingly a new Section 18A is proposed to be inserted to provide prohibition of registration of certain types of properties.
