In some States Special Power of Attorney for sell is required to be registered at the office of Registrar or Sub registrar, where the property is situated. Where as some times it requires only notarization. (no need to register with registrar or sub registrar). What is the actual rule prevailing in Gujarat State? Is there any different rule if executer for POA is NRI and has signed it in presence of Notary over there(Abroad) and recipient accepts it in presence of Notary of Gujarat State and registers the same with Notary.(Photos of both executer and holders are affixed)

A POA giving power to sell a landed property in India is compulsorily registrable no matter in which State of India U reside in.
As for NRIs, the POA will have to be executed before the Indian Consulate & duly attested by the competent officer to be valid.
