Latest news: Delhi property registration

Update on March 3, 2022

Unique ID code a must in east Delhi for property registration

Those planning to go for registration of property in east Delhi with the revenue department are now required to obtain a unique property identification code (UPIC) number from the East Delhi Municipal Corporation (EDMC). The civic authority approached Delhi government to incorporate UPIC among other documents for registration, to bring all property details online. The government issued an order for implementing the proposal on a pilot basis.

Update on February 26, 2021:

Home buyers to benefit from the circle rate cut

The Delhi government, on February 5, 2021, reduced the circle rates, the minimum price at which a property can be bought, for all categories of properties for the next six months, in a move that will benefit property buyers in the national capital. Experts are hoping that this will boost the real estate market and increase revenue for the government, as well.

Delhi broadly has eight categories of localities – from A to H. Category A being the most affluent one and H being the most economically weaker one. The circle rates are proportionate to the category. The cut in circle rates will allow buyers to get their property registered at 20% below the government-prescribed rates and save money on stamp duty payment.

Update on December 28, 2020:

Delhi’s illegal colonies given cover from punitive action till December 2023

The union cabinet has approved an ordinance extending protection from punitive action to unauthorised colonies, JJ clusters and constructions in Delhi’s rural areas built on agricultural land for another three years. The move will extend the legal protection for all illegal constructions and unauthorised colonies in Delhi, from demolition or sealing, till December 2023. At present, there are around 1,700 unauthorised colonies in Delhi. The NCT of Delhi (Special Provisions) Amendment Ordinance, 2020 is an extension of a similar law first passed in 2011. The law was re-enacted in 2014 and then in 2017. Since the timeline was ending soon, the ordinance was approved, which will be valid till December 2023.
