Your friend can make payment by net banking 

it would not create any problems as full payment has been received by builder 

- As per law, this registered Sale deed can be rectified after executing a Rectification deed by both the parties . 

- However, since your friend wants to pay the said cheque amount in Cash then he should take a Receipt from the said Realtor for the said amount , after mentioning in details of error in the deed. 

- Further, your friend also can approach to clear the said cheque after proving that the said cheque has been signed by him , and he also can do second signature on the cheque before the bank manager. 

If there is understanding between buyer and seller then no need to worry about it. If tomorrow seller say's he did not received the cheque amount then what. So better to get rectification deed or perform se signature on that cheque again by buyer and ask seller to redeposit in the bank after confirmation of bank that as signature is correct.

Hello,

1. No, there should not be any problem with the payment being transferred to the realtor as there were issues with the cheque and the bank could not honour it. The payment in itself will create a record.
2. Let the friend take a receipt from the realtor and make the correspondence o f the transaction by email with the realtor on the official email of the realtor.. In the receipt let it be mentioned that the payment is being made against the cheque which was dishonored for technical reasons. This will be for records.
3. As long as the party is getting paid as promised in the Sale Deed, it does not matter awhat method was employed for the same.

Your friend can withdraw the cheque issue d to the realtor and make payment subsequently  by a different mode also. 

But while making the subsequent payment, he may make sure that he gets a receipt or an acknowledgment from the recipient, by making endorsement of an additional information in the receipt so obtained that this payment was made towards the sale consideration amount in lieu of the earlier payment made by cheque No.....  dated ..... which was taken returned  unpaid by the bankers for the reasons stated therein.

This acknowledgement witnessed by at least two witnesses from the realtor's side, would be a safe transaction to your friend especially if there is a claim by the seller in future about non payment of consideration amount. 

No problem

Take a letter from builder stating details of the payment made through another mode and acknowledging receipt of that payment 

1. Yes he can.

2. It will not vitiate the sale deed.

To avoid further legal complications please go with duly notarized agreement with the realtor mentioning full facts of the transaction,for what the cheque was issued ,how it become bounced and further course of action for the payment and also mention that this agreement shall be the part of the sale deed and got the signature of all the persons who have signed the sale deed.

Dear sir,

Any Factual mistakes in the sale deed can be corrected by creating a rectification deed. 

However, this could be corrected by way of a rectification deed. Explained at . However, if the mistake in the original documents pertains to area change, the stamp duty may differ and more money may have to be paid.

The parties need to reduce the correction into a duly executed document. Further, they need to pay the requisite stamp duty in order to get it registered with the specified authority. A rectification deed should be executed after mutual consent of all the parties to the main deed.

A nominal charge of Rs 100 has to be paid, to get a rectification deed registered at the sub-registrar's office. However, this is true only in case of minor typing or spelling-related changes in the original documents.
