My cousin resides in an MHADA property owned by my uncle. He is no more. Since my uncle had acquired the house and taken control of it, she stayed with them. However, my aunt is the current owner of her property. But, she wished to change my cousin’s name as the property owner. She consequently inquired about the MHADA Name Transfer Procedure. I did some online research and learned that changing the name involves a few key steps.

What is the MHADA flat transfer procedure?

In order to ensure a seamless and legal transfer of ownership, the name change procedure in MHADA properties entails various stages and few documents. Check out the latest procedure that I shared with my aunt below:

• The current owner or the society has to provide the no dues certificate.

• The owner should give you a copy of the official allotment letter that the MHADA officials provided when the flat was allocated.

• Check out the remaining dues on water and electricity meters.

• A sale agreement must be created in your name now.

• Pay the registration and stamp duty fees.

• Once the registration is made, submit the latest sale agreement along with required documents, like original sale deed, and so on, to the MHADA office.

• The owner must submit the required transferable fees.

• Finally, request the seller to change Power of Attorney in the name on which you want to transfer the property.

The name of the new owner will be officially entered into the MHADA database once the verification is successfully completed. You can get further details on MHADA transfer process via

What is the stamp duty on resale MHADA residential property? Which documents are required for Mhada properties? Any MHADA form information available? 

Hi Buddy,

My father has given me a house (MHADA) and has done the

MHADA room transfer procedure

. My brother refused to provide NOC because he opposed the fact of me getting the property, but the rest of my siblings supported me. My father is still alive and he is in my favour, and I have a registered gift deed, affidavit, and indemnity bond. 

For more legal query regarding property buy and sell, check out NoBroker legal assistance service.

Hence, I would like to brief you about the MHADA ownership transfer procedure.

The buyer's name must be on the agreement of sale, and the property must be registered in his name once the buyer pays stamp duty and registration fees. The buyer must then notify MHADA in order for the issuance of the

MHADA transfer letter

. 

The buyer must transmit a copy of the registered papers and pay

MHADA name transfer fee

of Rs. 35000. 

It takes roughly six months to complete the entire process. Hence, if you want to check the

MHADA transfer application status, you can check it at the official,

E-Mitra website.

If the buyer registers the property in his name, he must also transfer power of attorney to his name. I learned all these technicalities or the

MHADA property transfer rules

from a property lawyer. He helped me a lot.

I was also planning to purchase another MHADA flat, apart from the one that was gifted to me by my father. One question that was bothering me was, during that time can I transfer 50% of the MHADA property in my wife’s name? To this, he told that there should be an allotment order. Along with a lock-in period. If there is a 5-year lock-in period, no third-party rights can be created. In other words, during the lock-in period, no gift or sale deeds can be done.

He clarified that if it's allotted in my name, it can't be added right away, but it can subsequently be gifted to the wife in a 50/50 split by the husband. It can be registered jointly if it is applied jointly. 

Nevertheless, as I was planning to buy another MHADA property I got the

MHADA transfer form online through the E-Mitra website.

I would like to brief you guys about the documents that I required during the procedure;

Required Documents From The Owner:

• The owner must acquire from the society a certificate of no dues

• The MHADA's original allotment letter in the owner's name

• A copy of the letter in which the owner requests the transfer of the certificate that the society may have granted to the owner

• Check the electric metre's pass balance

As I am already an owner of a MHADA flat, I would like to also point out the benefits and disadvantages of owning a MHADA property.

The Drawbacks of Owning an MHADA Property:

• Because your flat is built on MHADA land, no matter how large or luxurious it is, MHADA is the ultimate owner

• Members of the society must pay MHADA a yearly land rent

• If the building is demolished or collapses for whatever cause, the society's members will have to apply to MHADA for authorization to rebuild it all over again

Pros of Owning an MHADA Property: 

• These flats are inexpensive, and if purchased at the proper time, they can produce more than double in a few years. The resale value will more than double in a few years

• Because it is backed by the government, its apartments are less expensive than those built by other high-rise developers. As a result, low-income individuals can invest and realise their dream of owning a property

I hope this answer on the

MHADA room transfer procedure

is fine:)
