I purchased a flat from the original owner through notarised GPA in Noida in 2001. The electricity connection and water connection still continue to be in the name of the original owner. I have been told that to get these connectiuons converted to my name, I must get the flat registered from Noida Authority in my name by paying appropriate stamp duty. This is quite a big expense for me. Can some one help in knowing the following:
1) Is it possible to get the water and power connection converted to my name with out registration?
2) What problems I may face in future if I do not get the flat registered in my name and continue with GPA documentation only?
