Dear all,
My uncle has got a property by 1995 , wht happened is there is a mistake in the survey no and he is paying the property tax in the same survey number as that of the seller , he didnt notice the same for 15 yrs but now he wants to change the survey no by making a new deed , will the rate of sale be the sale as that of the old ,
The problem is the seller is not signing the deed, they are claiming the money as of now.
what should I do
Please help .

If the survey number or measurement is wrongly mentioned in the sale deed, there is no need to execute a fresh sale deed. Rectification deed will do. For rectification deed, the fresh Guideline Value (ie., the current Govt Value) of the property will be taken into account for stamp duty & registration fee.
With regard to the seller's signature part, he is liable to execute all the deeds which ensures proper delivery of the title. To this effect, he should not demand any money.,
Ask him to execute the rectification deed amicably, if he does not heed to your request, send him a Legal Notice.
