Real Estate & Property Laws

Title-clear transactions, RERA-ready projects, dispute-tested deeds.

Overview

Real estate is unforgiving — a single missing mutation entry or unstamped agreement can destroy a billion-rupee transaction. We handle the full property life-cycle: title hunt, structuring, drafting, registration, RERA and dispute resolution.

Our real estate desk has deep familiarity with Delhi NCR land laws — DDA, MCD, NDMC, NDMC, GMDA (Gurgaon), HSVP (Haryana State), YEIDA (Yamuna Expressway), GNIDA (Greater Noida), and the unique tenure systems of Lutyens' Delhi and Defence Colony itself.

Whether you are buying a Defence Colony floor, structuring a joint development, registering a township under RERA, or recovering possession from a tenant — we bring transaction-grade discipline to documentation and litigation-grade rigor to disputes.

Transactional Real Estate

  • Title due diligence (30/45/60-year search) & opinion letters
  • Agreements to sell, conveyance, gift, partition & relinquishment deeds
  • Leave & licence, lease, sub-lease & assignment agreements
  • Joint Development Agreements (JDA), Development Management & TDR
  • Mortgage, equitable mortgage & registered charge documentation

RERA & Regulatory

  • Project registration with state RERA (UP, Haryana, Delhi, Rajasthan)
  • Allottee complaints, builder defence & adjudication proceedings
  • MCD, DDA, NDMC and conversion-charge advisory
  • Mutation, freehold conversion, lease deed restoration

Real Estate Litigation

  • Specific performance, injunction & possession suits
  • Partition, mesne profits & inheritance disputes
  • Eviction under Delhi Rent Control Act & Transfer of Property Act
  • PMLA & Benami Property Transactions Act defence
  • Adverse possession claims and defences

Lutyens' & Defence Colony Specialisation

Defence Colony (where our office is located) and surrounding Lutyens' Delhi colonies have unique tenure systems — leasehold from L&DO, restrictive covenants, conversion charges, and ground rent obligations. We have deep familiarity with mutation, freehold conversion, no-objection certificates from L&DO and DDA, and the cooperative society overlay applicable in Defence Colony.

RERA — Builder & Allottee Sides

Under RERA, allottees have rights including refund with interest (Section 18), structural defect liability for 5 years (Section 14(3)), and adjudication of compensation. Builders face strict registration, escrow, and sales conduct obligations. We act for both — from project registration support to allottee complaints across UP RERA (Lucknow/Greater Noida), Haryana RERA (Panchkula/Gurgaon), Delhi RERA, and other state authorities.
