I am Mr A and want a piece of advice from you which is related to property matters and taxes in India. I sold my piece of residential land to Mr B on 31 August 2025. I get a full payment of Rs 51 lakh from B. A sale agreement is signed between the parties. They have agreed to do the registration of property to be executed before 31 Match 26. But before proceeding with registration Deed, B sells it to Mr R without informing Mr A, and comes to Mr A and says he wants a bank loan and asks him to sign a new sale agreement to be submitted with Bank for the purpose of getting bank loan . Mr A cooperates with B and in good trust Mr A signs this sale agreement (a second time now) to assist Mr B for Bank loan. But Mr A fails to notice that the sale agreement was now actually between Mr A and Mr R, a new /third party. After a few days , one fine evening Mr A gets a surprise that Rs 20 Lac is deposited in his bank account. Mr A calls B and asks. Mr B informs that Mr A will get Rs 51 lakh again from Mr R and perhaps he will give the remaining Bank Loan amount to the seller's account of Mr A. When Mr A objects to this , Mr B says Mr R has already paid TDS on behalf of Mr A. Now Mr A gets confused and wants to confirm the property transaction concerns and tax matters, and to consult a chartered accountant to clarify the issue, so he stops Mr B. Mr A arranges a meeting with Mr B and scolds Mr B for not being transparent in the first place, and Mr B's act of not informing or seeking consent from Mr A to deposit money in A's account, thus keeping Mr A in dark. When they talk in A’s Chamber, which has CCTV recording. Now Mr B wants that Mr A will depost money in Mr A’s account which A will return this money to Mr B and Mr A to do registry of property to Mr R. Please explain how Mr A is affected legally and in liability of tax matters, particularly when there has been a tax deduction TDS in A’s , if he agrees and how Mr B and Mr get affected. What is the solution if A does not agree to this preposition? DateEvent
31 Aug 2025Mr A sells residential land to Mr B for ₹51 lakh, payment received in full. Sale agreement signed. Registration deferred till before 31 Mar 2026.
LaterMr B sells the same property to Mr R without informing Mr A.
AfterwardMr B asks Mr A to sign “another agreement” allegedly for a bank loan. Mr A signs in good faith, unaware that it is an agreement between Mr A and Mr R.
A few days later₹20 lakh credited to Mr A’s bank account (from Mr R). Mr B says Mr R will pay the remaining 31 lakh leading to a total ₹51 lakh, and that TDS (1%) is already deducted in Mr A’s PAN.
NowMr A is shocked, calls a meeting, CCTV recorded. Mr B wants Mr A to return the ₹51 lakh to him and register the property to Mr R.

Dear Experts,
I hope this message finds you well.
I am seeking your expert legal opinion regarding the gifting of a residential flat located in Mumbai, Maharashtra. Specifically, I would appreciate your guidance on the following points:
1. Whether gifting a residential flat to a non-family member is legally valid and permissible under the laws applicable in Maharashtra.
2. What are the legal formalities and documentation requirements involved in executing such a gift?
3. Is it mandatory to register the gift deed with the local sub-registrar, and if so, what are the stamp duty and registration charges applicable in Maharashtra?
4. Are there any tax implications or reporting requirements, either for the donor or the recipient, under Indian Income Tax laws?
Your professional advice will be greatly appreciated to ensure compliance with all legal formalities and to safeguard the interests of both parties involved.
Thank you in advance for your valuable time and support.
Warm regards,
Mehta

I wish to present my case in court without the assistance of an advocate, i.e., as a party in person. My tenant has sent me a legal notice without any legal merit, seemingly with the intention of extorting money before vacating the rented property. Interestingly, all his sons, who were living nearby, have sold their properties, and as tenant is 95 years old he can not live alone in that house . Could you please guide me on whether there are any courses or resources available online to help me prepare effectively for presenting my case in court?

Sir,
I and my wife (deceased) have a flat registered and share certificate has 2 name. Mine is first and my wife's (deceased) Second.
Our society will undergo redevelopment process.
I wish to know that is it necessary to delete her name from Share Certificate now?
Can I keep her name as it is and after redevelopment when new agreement is made then it can be my name only.
We do not have any legal heir and no children.
Kindly guide me.
Thank you
Sincere Regards

I have been told that a case for malicious prosecution can be filed when someone intentionally uses the legal system to harm or harass another party without reasonable grounds. In your case, the tenant's baseless legal notice demanding rent equivalent to 120 years' worth based on a 25-year-old false oral agreement could qualify as malicious prosecution if certain conditions are met. PLEASE OPINE.

Sale agreement was made with advance of Rs 20.0 lakhs on Rs 500 stamp paper. Next instalment amount was not paid on that date and postponed indefinetly. So we sent a notice for cancellation of sale agreement and returned the advance amount in full by transferring to their account. But party is not willing to cancel the agreement. Now another party has approached us for purchase of the property. Without cancelling the earlier agreement can we register the property to another party.

Hello Sir,
My question is, " lf a Property is received through a " WILL ", can the individual Mutate only a portion of the Property mentioned in the " WILL ", as a Portion of the Property is in the Possession of another individual's.
Thanks 🙏 🙏

Dear Sir,
Does Housing society have power to impose property tax charges on the home buyer prior to the possession date?
The Home buyer has the letter from the builder that he is not liable to pay any charges prior to the possession.
Can buyer take the matter to Registrar or he has to pay retrospective property tax for the period prior to possession.
Your views would be appreciated.

My maternal aunt(mashi) was unmarried and she was working in west bengal state government.She died on September.My maternal grandmother is alive and she gets her spouse pension who used to work under central government. My maternal aunt(mashi) made maximum savings in the name of my mother as jointly and as nominee and my brother did all her last rituals and thus we got my maternal aunty's death certificate.I and my mother kept the death certificate for legal document work and we went to my maternal aunty's(mashi) office to stop the pension and return the 1 and half month pension and some more legal things are needed to be complete but my maternal uncle(mama) is harassing us to give her death certificate or he will do police complain and also giving false allegation of taking the money although we had repeatedly said we will return after completing our legal things.What to do and does he can claim such things legally?My maternal aunt( mashi) was not having a good relation with her brother as he used to say bad things to her.
