Rectification Deed Impounded by SRO demanding to pay the difference of stamp duty
M.K.Karuthapandiyan, Coimbatore.
Question: Doment registered in the year 1990. Typhographical mistake was made in the plot No. which should read as 24 as per LPR. Instead, the plot number was typed as A24. Now the suffix 'A' attached to the plot number should be removed and the plot number be corrected as '24'. There no change in the boundries of plot and there is no other sort of encumberances.
The parties of the document mutually agreed for the rectification.
The concerned parties mutually applied for the rectification to The Sub Registerar and executed the Rectification Deed of the document in a Rs.100/- stamp paper 2 detailing the the correction in the property. A fee of Rs.150/- was paid and reciept obtained.
But The SRO impounded the Rectification Deed demanding to remit the difference of stamp duty as per the prevailing value, stating that the document was registered in year 1990, the correction comes under section 47B and time of correction is 2011.
Can any one give suggestion to relieve from this tangle.
With Regards
