EP 08 covered which first sales go online and what they cost. Now let’s get your first-sale flat or plot registered on TNREGINET.
Before you open TNREGINET
- Login details. For a new account, keep your mobile number, email and ID details handy.
- Aadhaar cards for the buyer, seller and witnesses.
- Draft sale deed and property details. For a flat, keep the unit number, block and undivided share of land (UDS) handy. For a plot, keep the approved layout, plot and survey numbers, area and boundaries on hand.
- Fee breakup. Confirm the stamp duty, registration fee and who will pay online.
Step 1. Open TNREGINET and log in
Go to TNREGINET. If you’re filing yourself and need an account, select User Registration, choose Citizen, enter the required details and complete the verification. If your builder or promoter is filing, confirm whose account will be used.
Step 2. Check the draft sale deed
Match the buyer and seller names, agreed price and property details to your purchase documents.
Step 3. Complete Aadhaar verification
The buyer, seller and witnesses complete fingerprint or iris verification. The setup includes a computer with internet, a UIDAI-approved L1 fingerprint scanner, a compatible iris scanner, a webcam and a plain blue backdrop for photos. Confirm who will arrange the equipment and where everyone should go.
Step 4. Pay and submit online
The person filing submits the executed deed and supporting documents and pays the stamp duty and registration fee online. Keep the payment receipt and submission reference.
Step 5. Track the decision
The launch instructions call for the Sub-Registrar to act within 24 hours. The deed may be registered, returned for correction or rejected. If it’s returned for correction, fix the issues and resubmit it within 30 days of the return.
Step 6. Download your signed deed
Download the digitally signed deed from the filing account within 60 days of registration. If the builder filed it, ask for the original digital file. Check the document number, date and property details. After 60 days, you can apply for a certified copy.
Too much paperwork? VRE handles the Anywhere Registration process for you, from preparing your documents and coordinating Aadhaar verification to submitting your sale deed on TNREGINET.
