Release deed/ relinquishing deed registration in kerala with notirised poa

A notarized Power of Attorney (PoA) is generally insufficient for executing a registered release deed, as property transfers, including release deeds, usually require a compulsorily registered PoA. While a notarized PoA verifies the signature, it does not hold the legal authority of a registered document for transferring immoveable property. Any PoA enabling an agent to transfer, sell, or release property rights must be registered with the Sub-Registrar to be legally valid. A release deed acts to transfer property rights; thus, a registered POA is mandatory for the agent to execute it on behalf of the principal.Without registration, the authority of the PoA holder to sign the release deed on the principal’s behalf is likely to be rejected by the registration office or challenged in court. 

The power of attorney (PoA) has to be registered (notarised not acceptable) for authorising "someone" to execute a registered Release / Relinquish Deed before area Sub-Registrar where property is located i.e., Kerala in instant case.

Whether subject property is ancestral or self-acquired in the names of A, B & C to determine whether A & B may release or relinquish their respective share  in  favour of C ?

A Power of Attorney  (poa) used to execute a document that requires compulsory registration such as for the sale,transfer or disposal of immovable property  must it self be registered, under sec 32 o Registration Act,1908, an unregistered or merely  notarized poa is generally invalid for transfer of rights through relinquish deed.

A and B reside in different states; each shall execute a registered GPA (it is preferable to give the GPA to C's spouse or a family relative/friend) to execute a release/relinquishment deed in favour of C on behalf of A & B.
