How to register unregistered land bought in 1995 legally?

My father purchased a plot in Kanpur in 1995 but never registered the property. He constructed a house on the land, which was rented out until we moved in after his retirement. We have all essential documents like electricity bills, phone connections, and house tax receipts in his name. The original landowner’s wife is ready to legally transfer ownership without any financial transaction. How should we proceed with registering the property legally?

Get the landowner’s wife to execute a registered sale deed or gift deed in your father's name, even if no money is exchanged. Consult a property lawyer to prepare documents. Once registered, you will have full legal ownership and avoid future disputes. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
