Agreement for sale is a agreement between parties that on such and such terms the sale to take place. Terms and conditions could be agreed and sale to be completed on agreed future date with payment.

Sale Deed is a document executed at the time of finalising the sale deal. when entier aount is paid and property is conveyed sale deed is executed.

Deed of assignemnt is a deed by which interest in the proprty is transfered and assigned to another. Like tenancy rights and other rights of protperty can be assigned as it cant be sold.

Agreement for Sale is not the actual sale but a contractual agreement to sell a property on particular terms and for a particular price, however the Sale Deed itself is where the acutal transfer ouccers and one becomes the owner of the property.  Assignment will happen in case of leasehold land, whereby subject to the terms and conditions of the Lease Deed, the lessee shall be assigning all his rights emanating from the Lease deed to the assignee for a consideration, and whereby the assignee shall basically step into the shoes of the lessee and directly pay the rent to the Lessor.   

agreed with Chirag Shah and Chanakya.

@ Nadarajah

You need to enter into agreement to sale first and then complete the sale by executing sale deed in your favour. If you are going to buy a property and willing to take a bank loan, you should enter into the agreement to sale by paying token amount which willbe around 10% of total sale considration and get the agreement registered and approach the bank for loan.

I agree with Mr.Chirag Shah's briefing, which  is more  precise.

Be aware sometimes the builders are going only for Agreement for Sale and not executing Sale Deed.

if the person get into an agreement to sale by paying say 50% amount and getting the agreement to sale registered at the sub registration office and then in a months time gets a loan and the bank directly pays to the builder the remaining 50%. and does not agree to do the sale deed. does the buyer in that case has no rights to sell the property? As the property tax and even the electricity bill is in his name .

Hi Rahul,

I have few queries.

Our apartment is a Joint Development Agreement between builder and land owner.

The flat that we have booked comes under Land Owner's share of flats.

We have paid the Advance amount of 20% of flat cost. The Sale Agreement is made between us and land owner. Builder represents the land owner as both of them have signed a General Power of Attorney.

The bank did not give 80% of the loan amount because we already had some open home loan.

Based on our eligibility, the bank agreed to give only 60% of flat cost. So balance 20% we have to pay.

Now my questions are:

1. The builder says that to get the sale deed registered I need to pay the balance 20% now.

    Only then the sale deed will be executed. Only then the Bank will disburse the loan.

    He says the bank wants us to pay our part (40%) fully before it can release the loan(60%). Is this true?

2. Can I register the sale agreement(contract only) and ask the bank to release the loan? Are you talking about sale deed when you referred to registering the sale agreement?

3. The builder has not yet completed the construction. Is the land owner eligible to sell the flat before construction is over?

4. For people who purchased the flats directly from the builder, both sale agreement and construction agreement were made between the purchaser and builder. But in my case, there was one single sale cum construction agreement. Builder (represents land owner - GPA) says, that's what happens when we purchase the flat from land owner. Is this true?

5. Is there any REAL benefit in registering the sale agreement (Contract between parties)?

6. When I asked for both Sale and Construction Agreements, my loan agent told me that I need to pay extra amount in taxes if that is the case. But the cost of Unidivided share of land + flat cost is accounted for in the sale cum construction agreement that they have provided. I am not sure how there will be more taxes if I go for separate sale and construction agreement?

Please clarify.

Thanks in advance.

1. Yes, it is true for most of the banks.

Be aware you register the agreement of sale...sometimes there is intended change in price of the property so developer will be reluctant to register the same.

Dear Sir,

I have bought a flat in Pune under Apartment formation. The possession is in Sep 14.

My name is "VENKAT RAMAN SONNATI" While registering my flat agreement it was mentioned as "VENKATRAMAN SONNATI"(Space between VENKAT and RAMAN is missing). Advocate has asked me to cross the incorrect name and correct the name with Pen in all the places (4 times) in the agreement.Beside the correction, my self and my wife have signed. However, GPA from builder has not signed.

Index2 is showing the correct name in Marathi.

When I contacted an advocate, I was asked to register a rectification deed since Vendor's signature beside the manual correction is missing.

As per the Builder's advocate- there is no need to register a rectification deed as Apartment deed which will be registered in Sep 14 (at the time of giving possession|) will have correct name which is the final document showing my ownership.

Please advise if rectification deed need to be done.

Thanks a lot
