Removing joint owners name

This is a case of divorce where the second party has relinquished rights over a jointly-owned property and the first party needs to regularise documentation.

What is the procedure for legally removing joint property owner's name from the property documents? What documents will be needed? The share certificate from the coop society also needs to be amended accordingly.

Is there any government fees involved?

Kindly advise. Thanks.

1. The joint owner / member, should prepare a relinquishment deed for its share of the property and get it duly registered.

2. Submit the notoraised copy of the registered relinquishment deed to the CHS, alongwith necessary "indemnity bond" on a 200/- stamp paper, alongwith a application, requesting to delete the name of the joint owner / member, based on the registered relinquishment deed, in the society records and the original share certificate.

Would a power of attorney would also be required along with the relinquishment deed and how could the the register the property in his name as the single owner?
