Quick Summary

The discussion clarifies that fingerprint and thumb impressions became mandatory for property sale deeds in India from 2001/2002 onwards, following an amendment to Section 32-A of the Registration Act, 1908. Prior to this amendment, such impressions were not required. The conversation addresses a specific query about a sale deed from 1979 lacking a fingerprint, and experts advise consulting a local lawyer for verifying the document's authenticity and pursuing legal recourse if fraud is suspected.

What are the facts? What is the context?

Bala sundaram (Querist) 16 August 2022

Context is without thumb impression / Fingerprint in the sale deed made in 1979 is valid or not?.....
Fact is suppose this is mandatory in that period we will try to establish the fact of the fake documentation made with partial signatory in the copy of the document.

Kindly give us more suggestions to reveal the truth and establish the genuineness and capture the property from fraudulent people.

@ Bala Sundaram,
It has explicitly been made clear that Registration Act, 1908 was amended in 2001 where thumb impression of parties executing a document has been inserted and made compulsory, what is your further query ??
If you are not satisfied it would be better to consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for proper appreciation of facts/ documents, professional advise and necessary proceeding.
Please close and do not stretch this thread.

Dr J C Vashista sir

First of all thank your patient and respond to your reply....

I understand your point of view and observation. But, Thumb impression was only mandatory in 2001 onwards.
How can we prove it before the sale deed happened in 1979 and one more partial signature by the seller and without signature of his “husband & witness” too?

Dr J C Vashista (Expert) 22 August 2022
Prima facie the query and facts are vague and confusing.
It would be appropriate and advised to consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for analysing the document(s) and necessary proceeding.
