Is aadhar mandatory for property registration

Every citizen of India should register their name and get their aadhar number. People often come up with the question,

is aadhar mandatory for property registration

? The simple answer is no.

Aadhar Card is a document of verification or identity proof that is being used by the government of India to have a record of the citizens. It is a single source identity verification system across India both online and offline. 

Issuing an Adhar card means you are voluntarily providing all details to the government. Upon furnishing such information, you are permitted to avail governmental subsidies as per your eligibility. 

However do not lose your aadhar card or let the details get leaked. If such a thing happens immediately complain against it or the card can be used against you.

Aadhar card can be used as an identity proof for property registration and land mutation but it is not compulsory. Central has clearly stated that no one is bound to provide aadhar details in cases of buying and selling properties. 

You can also use Pan Card, Voter Id card for such legal purposes as well.

There is no  provision in the Registration Act of 1908 which states that Aadhar card is mandatory for property registration. However, an Aadhaar card is required to establish your identity as it is an official government document. Both the parties involved in property registration i.e. the buyer and the seller are required to have their Aadhaar card as identity proof during the property registration process.

The Aadhar card acts as proof of identity for property registration as well as land mutation. I was watching the news and saw that the Government is  planning to make Aadhaar card linking to property registration a mandatory thing but there is no official word on it as yet.
