This query is : Resolved
Sir/ Madam I purchased a flat in 24 Pargana District & a land in Birbhum district from the same seller and the registration was done in DSR Birbhum on 2013. Now the lawyear of a private bank is denying to mortgage the said flat because as per his view the DSR( District Sub Registrar) has no right to register a land/building at Kolkata. As per consultation with the DSR it reveals that DSR can reister the land outside his area if another land is registered in his area/jurisdiction. But the legal team of the bank is demanding section of rules or act. Pl help me regarding this matter.

The immovable property can be registered with the area Sub-Registrar where property is located.
You have stated to have purchased flat in district 24 Parganas and a piece of land in district Birbhum, how could Birbhum register the transfer of title qua flat located in 24 Parganas ?
However, local laws apply to query.
It is advisable to consult a local prudent lawyer for appreciation of facts and applicability of law / rules on the subject.
