Housing/D-3/Stamp Duty/96 Dated 8th July, 1996.
Office of the Commissioner for

Sub: Precautions to be taken before Registering Co-operative
Housing Societies.
Ref: Circular of this office dated 18-2-1996
CIRCULAR
Attention of the Registering Authorities is invited to the circular dated 18-121994 issued by this office.
Following revised directions are being issued in respect of the directions
mentioned in that circular. These revised directions are to be followed and
ensured that registration of Co-operative Housing Societies does not remain
pending.
1.
Regarding the Sale Agreement of a flat in a Cooperative Housing

Society.
This office learns from a number of complaints received, that the Registering
Authorities have stopped registering Co-operative Housing Societies, in
response to the directions issued by this Office vide its circular dated 18-21994, that Co-operative Housing Societies should not be registered under the
Co-operative Societies Act, before making payment of requisite Stamp Duty
and also before registering the Sale Agreement, entered into between the
Builder and the Flat holder. The Builders/Promoters appear to be taking
disadvantage of this direction by not initiating any action to register the Cooperative Housing Societies, so that they should not be required to pay the
Stamp Duty, already paid by the Flat holders to them. This, they are doing to
enable them to use maximum available FSI.
In most cases, the office of sub-registrar issues receipts with the remark
pending for fixing market value, even after payment of Stamp Duty.
Similarly, the original Document is returned after prolonged time, after
registering the same. Now there is no objection to register a Co-operative
Housing Society, if the Promoters produced receipts in respect of payment of
Stamp Duty and Registration Fee, as per the Sale Agreement.
The concerned Registering Authorities should give information in this respect
to the Stamp Officers of the respective districts, so that these Stamp officers
will recover the necessary Stamp Duty from the concerned flat holders.
Taking all these directions into consideration, Co-operative Housing Societies
may be registered if all the conditions are complied with, by producing
receipts of submission of documents (Agreement Deed/Sale Deed), to the
Registering Authorities, along with registration proposals. Registration of Cooperative Housing Societies should not be kept in abeyance till the final
settlement of Stamp Duty.
2.
Regarding Registration of Agreement between the Flat holder and

the Purchaser at the time of transfer of a flat in a Co-operative
Housing Society.
There are directions in the Circular dated 18-2-1994, issued by this office not
to effect transfer of flat, till the Sale Deed is registered. Accordingly, it has
come to the notice of this Office that in some cases, transfer of flats has
been kept in abeyance. In this respect, revised directions are being issued
that, the Managing Committee of a Co-operative Housing Society should
approve transfer of flat, provided, evidence in the form of Receipt is
produced along with the transfer proposal and the transfer documents
(Agreement Deed) has been submitted to the Registering Authority and also
evidence as regards payment of Stamp Duty and such other conditions are
complied with.
