Frequently asked questions
Practical answers about the practice and the property-law process in Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar. This is general information, not legal advice for a specific case.
Which areas does the practice serve?
The office is at 110 Sopan Tower, Chandkheda, Ahmedabad. Matters are handled across Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar, including work before Mamlatdar, Prant / Deputy Collector and Sub-Registrar offices in these districts.
How do I book a meeting?
Use the Book a Meeting form on this website or send a WhatsApp message. Meetings are held Monday to Saturday, between 2 PM and 9 PM. After you request a slot, the office calls you to confirm.
What kinds of matters does the practice handle?
Property and land / revenue work: sale deed drafting and registration, 7/12 extract and mutation (fer-far), varsai (inheritance) entries, RTS appeals, stamp duty matters, boundary (takrar) disputes, NA permission for agricultural land, and trademark registration.
Does a 7/12 mutation entry prove ownership?
No. A mutation (fer-far) entry in the 7/12 record is a fiscal entry made for revenue purposes. By itself it does not decide title to the property; registered documents and title evidence are what count. Our guide on mutation entry versus property title explains this in detail.
Which documents are generally needed to register a sale deed in Ahmedabad?
Commonly required: identity and address proofs of the parties, the previous deed and title chain, the latest 7/12 and 8A extracts or property card, up-to-date tax receipts, photographs, and payment of stamp duty and registration fees. Exact requirements vary with the property, so the full list is confirmed for each file.
Which languages are the guides written in?
The guides and updates on this website are written in Gujarati and English.
