What is Deemed Conveyance?

What is Deemed Conveyance?

The Promoter (Builder/ Developer) is legally required to convey the land and the building within 4 months of formation to the society or any legal body of the flat purchasers. However, it has been the experience that many promoters (Builders/Developers) have not conveyed the land and building to the legal bodies. Therefore, government has amended the Maharashtra Ownership Flats Act, 1963 (MOFA) and provided for the deemed conveyance in favor of the legal bodies. Under the provision, deemed conveyance means after the expiry of 4 months of formation of the legal body, the land and building is deemed to have been conveyed to the legal body and to bring the same in the revenue record, Competent Authority has been designated who will hear the parties on the basis of applications received from the aggrieved party and transfers the title in favor of the legal body by passing the necessary order and deemed conveyance certificate and appoint an authorized officer to execute the conveyance deed in favor of the society and execute on behalf of non-co-operative builder or the land owner. Getting the title of land and building by adopting the above procedure is known as deemed conveyance.

CONVEYANCE DEED

CONVEYANCE DEED

In case of housing societies the builder/promoters have to ideally create deed of conveyance and hand over it to housing societies that to within 4 months after project completion. However, due to lack of knowledge many builders do not create such documents. There have been cases where builders have later on denied to create such documents and asked additional money to provide signatures on these documents. You will find all sorts of reasons for not creating the document. This results in issues for societies in future. Therefore, government has amended the Maharashtra Ownership Flats Act, 1963 (MOFA) to make sure if builders run way from such responsibilities, the societies do not suffer. This amendment is called “Deemed Conveyance”. This amendment allows society owners to gain the legal rights of the land even if the builder is not willing to transfer the rights, in front of designated competent authority.

A valid conveyance deed must contain the following:

1. The actual demarcation of the property.

2. Other rights annexed to the property and its use.

3. The full chain of titles, that is, all legal rights up until the present seller.

4. The method of delivery of the property to the buyer.

5. A memo of the consideration, stating how it has been received.

6. Any further applicable terms and conditions for the full transfer of ownership rights.

Important points to consider, to ensure smooth purchase/sale of a property:

The seller is required to certify that the property is free of any legal encumbrance.

If a loan was taken against the property in question, then, the mortgage must be cleared before the deed is signed. Buyers have the option of having this checked at the local sub-registrar’s office.

The conveyance deed should state the exact date on which the property will be handed over to the buyer.

Within four months of the execution of the deed, all the original documents related to the sale of the property, need to be produced for registration before the local registrar.

The deed is required to be signed by at least two witnesses.
