In a significant move, the Chhattisgarh government has introduced a relief measure for landowners and property holders. According to a notification published in the state gazette, property registration will now be available for a mere ₹500 when family members transfer property rights among themselves.

However, if the property rights are transferred to someone outside the family, a 4% fee will be applicable as per the new guidelines. Previously, in the case of property division among family members, the registration fee was set at 1.5% of the guideline value.

Additionally, the new policy introduces the option for property registration at home for a fee of ₹25,000, a provision that was earlier only available for medical grounds.

Now, if both the buyer and the seller are at the same location, they can complete the registration process from the comfort of their home by paying this fee. Furthermore, buyers and sellers can also opt for a special time slot for registration by paying ₹15,000. This initiative is expected to simplify property transactions and provide greater convenience to residents across the state.
