Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 27 December 2023 This query is : Resolved
My father purchased a piece of land in Tamilnadu in 1988. We live in Chennai but the property is in Tirunelveli district. We recently came across the document and saw that his first name is mentioned wrongly. He is 80 years old now and he can't move around freely.
1.What is the procedure to correct the name and file rectification deed.
2. what will be the cost to make the changes including lawyers fees.
3. How much time will it take to do the rectification.
4. What are the documents that will be required. (We are not aware of the current whereabouts of the seller as it was done more than 35 years back)

Either the seller or his/her legal heirs shall execute a rectification deed in favour of your father (buyer). Some states issued a clarification that if the whereabouts of the seller (transferee) are not known the buyer can do a rectification deed to be executed by himself with a support document. You consult in Registrar's Office in the matter.

I spoke to a person working in the registration department. He said that I will have to get a certificate from Tashildar certifying that my dad has a nick name and both are same person only than a rectification deed will be executed. Is this the legal procedure?
