  • PunjabRERAProperty & title

    Punjab RERA restores Zirakpur buyer’s allotment and orders 10% interest for delayed possession

    Punjab RERA restored a homebuyer’s cancelled allotment in the Sushma Valencia project at Zirakpur and directed the developer to pay 10% annual interest for delay. The authority also said the possession letter should be issued only after the developer obtains the completion certificate, which matters for buyers and lenders checking whether possession is legally deliverable.

What these updates change

Does registering a sale deed prove ownership?
No. Registration under the Registration Act, 1908 records that an instrument was executed, not that the seller had title to convey. Ownership comes from the chain of title, the encumbrance record and possession.
Which updates actually change a title search?
Judgments on title, possession and limitation; stamp duty and circle rate revisions; land record and registration procedure changes; and secured lending rules such as SARFAESI enforcement and RBI disclosure circulars.
Central rule or state rule?
Both. The Registration Act, the Transfer of Property Act and RBI circulars apply nationally. Stamp duty, land records and RERA rules are state subjects, so an Andhra Pradesh amendment does not bind Karnataka.
  • HaryanaRERAProperty & title

    Haryana RERA says a fully paid buyer cannot be stopped from transferring a property because the promoter delayed the conveyance deed

    The Haryana Real Estate Regulatory Authority held that a buyer who has paid in full and taken possession cannot be blocked from selling or transferring the property just because the promoter has not executed the conveyance deed. The promoter, Apex Build-well, was ordered to pay 11 percent interest on the Rs 27 lakh paid for a commercial shop in Sector 37C, Gurugram, along with compensation and litigation costs.

    Supreme Court says omitted specific performance claim remains barred despite later withdrawal liberty

    The Supreme Court held that a party who first files only an injunction suit without reserving the specific performance relief cannot later use withdrawal liberty under Order 23 to bring that omitted claim. Buyers and lenders reviewing pending litigation over an agreement to sell should check whether the first suit split the reliefs, because that can decide whether the later sale-enforcement suit survives.

    Allahabad High Court summons officials over unpaid land acquisition compensation from 1959 acquisition

    The Lucknow bench of the Allahabad High Court summoned land acquisition and treasury officials after being told that full compensation had still not been paid for land acquired in 1959. The case is relevant for title diligence because unresolved acquisition compensation proceedings can keep public authority claims and execution disputes alive long after possession has changed.

    Odisha passes Indian Stamp (Odisha Amendment) Bill: flat Rs 50,000 duty on common-area conveyance, uniform 5 percent on apartments

    The Odisha Assembly passed the Indian Stamp (Odisha Amendment) Bill, 2026 on 28 September, giving statutory form to an earlier ordinance. An association of allottees now pays a flat Rs 50,000 stamp duty, with registration fee capped at Rs 20,000, for the conveyance of common areas and facilities, while apartment transfers carry a uniform 5 percent duty that also covers the undivided share in the common areas.

    Odisha orders collectors to reclaim government land left unused for over three years

    The Odisha Revenue and Disaster Management Department has told all collectors to review government land given out on advance possession, permissive possession, lease or alienation, and to take back plots unused for more than three years or used for a purpose other than the one sanctioned. Resumption runs under Section 3-B of the Odisha Government Land Settlement Act, 1962, and collectors must report progress online by the 5th of every month.

    Delhi High Court appoints an arbitrator for banks disputing priority over mortgaged properties, without the other bank's consent

    The Delhi High Court held that two banks competing over the priority of their charge on the same mortgaged properties can be sent to a sole arbitrator under Section 11 of the SARFAESI Act even when the other bank has not consented. The Debts Recovery Tribunal had earlier declined to hear the dispute and pointed the banks to this arbitration route.

    Punjab RERA directed Jubilee Joy Homes LLP to pay 11% annual interest on the buyer’s paid amount from the agreed possession date until physical possession is handed over. The authority rejected the developer’s argument that the buyer’s payment conduct caused the delay, noting that the completion certificate came after the contractual possession date.

    Supreme Court says an auction bidder who misses the balance payment loses the deposit under e-auction terms

    In an IBC liquidation e-auction, the Supreme Court held that the earnest money and deposited amount are forfeited automatically when a bidder fails to pay the balance in time, because the e-auction notice terms govern even where the liquidation regulations are silent on forfeiture. Liquidators and lenders can enforce the forfeiture clause as written, and a bidder cannot claim a refund on the ground that the regulations say nothing.

    TNREAT upheld a TNRERA direction requiring Arun Excello Constructions to refund money collected for stilt parking in a residential project. Buyers and lenders reviewing an apartment file should treat stilt parking as part of common areas where the applicable RERA position bars separate sale or allotment for consideration.

    Delhi High Court says the spouse exception in benami law does not cover property registered jointly with a mother-in-law

    The Delhi High Court held that the exception for property bought by a husband in his wife's name does not stretch to a sale deed registered jointly with the mother-in-law, and that the source of the money alone does not decide whether a deal is benami. The husband's own pleadings showed the price came from mixed accounts and a loan in another person's name, so his claim to be the real owner was barred.

    The Telangana government has ordered that open plots, houses and flats on government land that were barred from registration under Section 22-A can be registered if they have a valid layout, building or apartment approval from the competent authority and genuine, traceable registered link documents, with the transaction after the approval. Registration stays subject to any pending court case, and district-level committees (Collector, Additional Collector, District Registrar and HMDA/local-body representatives) have been set up to resolve issues in the registration process.

    Madras High Court dismisses MGR heirs’ plea over Virugambakkam property

    The Times of India reported that the Madras High Court dismissed a claim by M G Ramachandran’s relatives over a Virugambakkam property because the property was covered by a probated will. The point for title diligence is that probate and estate administration records can defeat later heirship-based claims even where family members assert succession rights.

    The Punjab and Haryana High Court held that including a licensed colony within municipal corporation limits does not take away Haryana DTCP's power to take enforcement action under the 1975 Act against building violations by individual owners and occupants. The ruling comes amid a DTCP survey of 14,757 plots in DLF Phases 1 to 5 in Gurugram that found violations. Buyers and lenders should treat building compliance, sanction plans and compounding status as title-adjacent risk checks in such colonies.

Suraj, the Supreme Court held that a karta's sale of joint family property stands once legal necessity is shown, and drew an adverse inference against the plaintiffs for not examining the widow who knew the family's finances. Purchasers and lenders relying on a karta's sale should keep the proof of why the money was needed.

    LawLens reported that the Gauhati High Court directed Central Bank to refund an auction buyer who had not received possession for 11 years after a SARFAESI sale. The story matters to auction purchasers and lenders because a sale certificate is not enough if physical possession and third-party claims remain unresolved.

    MahaRERA held that a buyer who had paid Rs 1.6 crore remained an allottee even though the sale agreement was only notarised and not registered. The order matters for buyers and project lenders because stamp duty and registration undertakings in the allotment record can affect completion obligations and RERA exposure.

    Telangana's Real Estate Appellate Tribunal ruled that renewing a project's RERA registration does not automatically push out the possession date promised to buyers, and on that basis dismissed 31 appeals by a builder trying to avoid delay-interest payments. A promoter cannot unilaterally shift the handover date just because the registration was extended, so a lawyer checking a project's RERA status must treat the registration validity date and the contractual possession date as two separate things.

A collateral civil suit or interim order does not let the Magistrate adjudicate title or stall assistance to the secured creditor, which affects possession-risk checks for mortgaged property.

For title diligence, the check is the actual challan or e-SBTR credited to the stamp or registration authority, not an internal bank transfer or funding arrangement.
