The PoA has to be adjudicated/registered within 3 months of its receipt in India to be legally valid. It is enough that the power agent does so at the registrar's office having jurisdiction over the place where he/she resides. In your case, it can be done in Bombay. Once it is done, it is valid throughout India. The power agent may use it to sell the property in Bangalore and buy one in Calcutta.
1. The POA after its sent to India has to be adjudicated in the jurisdictional District Registrar's Office in which the property is situated.
2. For the property situated in Bengaluru, the POA has to be adjudicated in the jurisdictional District Registrar's Office. Similarly, for the properties situated in Mumbai and Kolkata, the POA has to be adjudicated in the jurisdictional District Registrar's Office.
In Delhi POA notarized from other country is being considered, no registration required. Please get checked from the lawyers practicing in concerned Sub Registrar, I mean from where the sale deed is to be drafted, he would help you in this regard.
You can register it directly with the office of sub registrar of relevant jurisdiction as it's already attested through embassy
The POA deed which was executed in the foreign country can be adjudicated in the registrar office in which the one of the property is falling within.
The same power of attorney deed so adjudicated can be used in other registrar office as well.
Dear client,
She can register this in Mumbai as her Adhaar card is there and then, it can be valid throughout India.
Thank you
- Since the said POA is notarized and attested by the consulate of India in US , and further is given to his wife , then legally it is sufficient for doing any transaction of the property as is mentioned in the said POA.
the poa is granted by husband to his wife
so the grantee is a relative of the grantor
also there is no consideration passing from the grantee to the grantor under the poa
so the poa is validly made in the USA by signing before the notary public there and attested by the Indian consulate
the husband can obtain a certificate of apostille stating the notorial act was validly performed for the poa
the poa is not required to be registered
the wife can accept the poa by signing before a notary public in Mumbai where she lives
