This query is : Resolved
Hello,
This is regarding a property suit in City Civil Court, for division of property between Mother and Son. The Mother has a Son and two Daughters.
The suit was settled in terms of the "Consent Terms" by executing a "Memorandum of Understanding" which states that both have agreed to settle the dispute in terms of the "MOU"
The signatures in the "Consent Terms" and the "MOU" had been witnessed by both the Daughters of the Mother.
"Consent Terms" had been filed making the terms and conditions of the MOU as part of the Consent Terms.
Both the daughters have executed "Declaration cum Indemnity", in individual capacity, confirming the terms and conditions of "MOU" forming part of the "Consent Terms". They have released all their right, title and interest in the property. They have stated that
they confirm, agree and consent to what is stated in "MOU" about the division of property between the Mother and Son.
they declare and confirm for themselves and on behalf of their heirs and legal representatives that they shall not claim any right, title or interest over the part of property that the Son is entitled in respect of "MOU".
My query with regard to the above is :
Will it be necessary to Register any of the above documents?
Will "Release Deed" be necessary? Will it have to be registered?
Will registration of "Consent Terms" and "MOU" suffice?
Will Stamp-duty be required to be paid? If yes, then on which document and on what amount?
any other point that you may feel necessary to clarify.
Thanking you in anticipation and looking forward to your reply to the above, in your column.
Sincerely,
Anand Shah

U have not stated from where the property has come from.
U have also not stated as to whether the court has passed a consent decree.
In any event,a Partition Deed has to be made & registered & all charges as reqd. will have to be paid.

Hello,
Thanks a lot for your valuable reply.
Kindly note that the property had been purchased by the Father and Consent Decree had been passed by the Hon. Court.
In light of the above, will the Registration of MOU and Consent Terms between the Mother and Son as well as Declaration cum Indemnity of both the daughters, suffice and act as full proof document? Or will an additional deed like Release Deed or Partition Deed be necessary? If so, then which deed will have to be prepared and registered?
Kindly advice and oblige.
Thanking you in anticipation.
Sincerely,
Anand Shah.
