Only after executing the Conveyance Deed, the legal ownership of the land and the building will be with the society; till such time the society has only possession rights without any legal right for re-development or any other commercial benefit.

Under section 11 of MOFA Act, the builder/ Developer/ Landowner/ promoter are duty bound to co-operate with the CHS and execute a Conveyance deed before the Sub-Registrar and the original documents are handed over the new owners after completing all the necessary procedure.

In case of Deemed Conveyance, the builder/ land owner and/ or their legal heirs are not co-operating, therefore, the society appears before the Designated Competent Authority, who hears all the parties and passes the necessary order of Conveyance. Deemed Conveyance is obtained as a legal remedy against the defaulter builder/ landowner who do not wish to convey the property since they foresee a future commercial value of the property including usage of potential FSI for their personal benefit. Deemed Conveyance is a final Conveyance. Further, the same can be registered. There is no appeal against the Deemed Conveyance order passed by the competent Authority.

Like regular Conveyance, even on Deemed Conveyance, the stamp duty will be only Rs.100/-, if all the flat owners have paid the stamp duty and have done the registration of their respective flats including on all the transactions (Chain of Agreements) done in those flats. In case there are some flat owners who have not paid the stamp duty or have escaped the duty, the same will have to be paid after obtaining the deemed conveyance, at the time of registration of the Deemed Conveyance deed by the legal bodies and the same can be recovered from such flat owners.
