The legal process of recording a document with the sub-registrar's office. Under the Registration Act, 1908, certain documents (property sales, leases over 11 months) must be registered to be legally valid. Unregistered documents may not be enforceable in court.
Your rental agreement is for 2 years but not registered. If a dispute arises, the landlord can argue the agreement isn't legally valid because leases over 11 months must be registered. Always register long-term leases.
Upload your agreement and our AI will explain every clause — including registration — in plain language.
