Mutation of house property

Please clarify following points:

What is mutation and why it is required. What will happen if the house property is left unmutated for several years. What are legal implications of this.

Thanks in advance

Mutuation, is the entry in the property records, maintained by the Government. It gives the name of the person who is the owner of the property along with other essential details, as like, wot is total area of the land, ancestral or purchased, residential or commercial, etc.

Any land has to have a mutuation entry. It is essential for giving the real owner the property title. And thus, is essential document for resale or purchase of any property. Mututation entries are essential to discover whether the property had  a clear title.

Every piece of land shall definitely have a previous owner and legal record. You got to check that record, through search,and, thereafter, if u have purchased the property, u shall be required to see whether it had a clear title before. And get ur mutation enteries updated at sub-registrar office.

As far as negative implications of properties without updated mututations are concerned , it shall give u lack of clear title to ur property. This can create legal complications incase if u want to resale the property if the said property belongs to u or if u have purchased it and wants to resale it in future.

Hope ur queries are satisfied.

Regards,

Adv. Anuradha

u r absolutely right Anuradha......mutation records vested with government. if you desire to include ur ownership about house property u should apply for mutation. it is need and necessary to avail loan, bail ,other official uses. all we are aware, the extreme ,supreme, utmost owner of land is goverment (governer/president of India)

Mutation of name in records of government is a prt of proofof possession over the property. The real ownership can be proved by the sale deed in favour of the person holding the property. The law is settled that even the mutation entries in records of government  have a rebuttal value and have no absolute presumption.

But as suggested by Jayan, they will be very useful for a obtaining the loans from Banks etc.

Good Morning,

Mr. Kumar, can u plz provide exact details about ur problem. It should be mutuated immediately as soon as possible. If you provide the specific reason for why the property is still remains unmutuated, then, it would be easier to find a proper solution.

Dear Ms Anuradha,

Thanks for your prompt response.

The WILL of my father has been mutated. After mutation as is the procedure I approached the court  for releasing the property of the the surety. since the inventory was filed about a month late the judge has issued a show cause notice both to me and surety. Yesterday the arguments took place with ASJ . The letter of administration has been surrendered to court  as required by him. Now tomorrow judge has called me to pronounce the verdict. He holds the opinion that it was delibrately delayed and proably wants to revoke it (LOA)on such a flimsy ground.

  Could you help me in getting some such judgement wherer delay in filing inventory has been condoned  or some such thing.

Regards

Mayor Kumar

In a scenario,inspite of probate been granted against the Will of the deceased person 35 years ago,  the mutation has not been done yet for that property . My queries are :

1) What can be the probable reasons for such dealy ?

2) Is there any max. time limit of doing mutation, from the date the person has deceased?

3) is it an offence ( criminal / civil ) for not doing the mutation of that propert for so many years ?

4) Can any Govt. body take action for such offence, if any ?

Kindly advise as soon as possible.

Regards

Dear Sir (s)

Further, I've another query .

Can the person sell and do  monetary transaction of any other immovable property, apart from his dwelling property, only against the probate of the Will of the deceased person ? Mutation has not been done of the said properties ?

Kindly advise.
