REGISTRATION OF PLOT THROUGH GPA


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the process of registering a property in India using a General Power of Attorney (GPA) when the owner resides abroad. It confirms that GPA registration is legally valid. A key point highlighted is that if the seller is an NRI, a 20% TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) plus surcharge must be deducted on the sale value and deposited with the government. This rule applies even if the NRI holds an Indian passport but works overseas, and a GPA is being executed in favour of a relative in India.
