Registration requirements

I am a tenant in PUNE who has got his leave and licence agreement registered with the authorities in Pune. I am trying to use the contents of this agreement for another house which my uncle has let out recently for the first time.

So far my landlord asked me to pay Rs.1000/- as 50% of registration expenses and appear at the Registration office where our finger pritns and photgraphs were taken

Now I am told that we have to engage a lawyer, who will create the leave and licence document on stamp paper. Take a token from the registrar's office, bribe the people at the office and complete all the formalities at a total cost of 4000-5000.

Can someone tell me an easier and relatively cheaper way?
