The government has consistently worked to improve the effectiveness and performance of numerous legal processes in the real estate industry over the years. The goal has been to make it easier for the promoter and the flat owners to apply online, hence eliminating the over-reliance on in-person application entries.
The government has taken another significant step in this direction by introducing the Deemed Conveyance process. This process enables the legal transfer of ownership of a property from the developer to the homeowner’s association.
It is important to understand what deemed conveyance is, how it works, and what documents are required for the process.
A deemed conveyance is the legal transfer of ownership of a property from the developer to the association of allottees. The purpose of this process is to provide clarity and certainty to buyers about their ownership rights. It also helps protect buyers from any potential disputes that may arise between them and the developer in the future.
The process of deemed conveyance was set out by governed by a Government Resolution. Under this process, the developer is required to execute a deed of the property on which the building is standing in favor of the association of allottees. This deed must then be registered with the office of the Sub-Registrar. Once the registration is complete, the association of allottees becomes the legal owner of the property.
The land is assumed to have been transferred to the association of allottees e.g. (co-operative housing society, an apex body, etc.) by applying for the same to the concerned authority, only in case the Developer fails to convey the land within 3 months from the date of occupancy certificate according to the provisions of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 or as may be specifically agreed by the parties. It is kept in the revenue records and is officially recorded as the owner of the land. Deemed conveyance is important because it:
The association of allottees may file an application before the appropriate authority for deemed conveyance with the details of the land, the name of the developer, etc. as per the prescribed format.
Once filed, the appropriate authorities must decide it within a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed six months. The developer’s argument is heard once the documents’ veracity has been confirmed. The instrument of presumed transfer is issued once the competent authority is persuaded that the current case of association is stronger.
The following documents are required for deemed conveyance gr. 21:
A deemed conveyance is the legal recognition of the ownership of a property that has been unregistered for a certain period. The registration of the property is necessary for the ownership to be transferred to the rightful owner and provides certain benefits and protections.
