you can produce all the copies of the chain documents pertaining to preparation of settlement deed.

Do not submit the original documents now itself, you can carry them with you at the time of registration and get it compared .

the approximate time taken for registration would be around three to four days after online booking the slot for registration.

The copies of all the chain title documents are to be submitted to enable the lawyer to prepare the settlement deed referring all related documents in the recitals of the deed.

Make sure that you don't submit original documents in haste or anxiety.

It is advisable to provide all parent documents (previous Sale Deeds) related to the property to ensure a smooth registration process. This helps your lawyer verify the title chain and avoid any legal complications later. A selection may not be sufficient, as missing links in the title chain can raise concerns during registration.

For property settlement registration, it is crucial to provide your lawyer with the original documents necessary to complete the process smoothly and without legal hurdles. These typically include the original sale agreement, parent title deeds (including past sale deeds), encumbrance certificate, patta or khata certificate, property tax receipts, and any other title documents related to the property. You should also provide your identification and address proofs required for registration, such as Aadhaar and PAN cards.

Ideally, submit these documents to your lawyer at least 3 to 5 days before the registration date. This allows sufficient time for verification, preparation, and addressing any discrepancies. If you cannot provide all parent documents, consult your lawyer about the specific ones required, as a selection might suffice depending on the property’s history. However, it is advisable to provide complete parent documents for thorough validation and to ensure there are no legal complications during or after registration.

You will only require current documents unless you have made averments about parent documents in your present deed
