JVR Flat Registration Self Help

Get your property registered with Kolkata Municipality / Registration House with economical efforts.

Please find my below 03 Step process.

Step-1

1.       Have  03 copies of passport size photos ready for each /all  members name appearing / desired on the registration document. Please note that, presence of all members are essential during registration process. 

2.       Have PAN & Aadhar cards 02 photo copies each or equivalent identification papers ready for all.

3.       AFNHB rep passport copies are held with JVR Estate Manager Mr Masud and may be confirmed in advance for its availability. The authorized representative's presence in registery office is a mandatory requirement for the first-time/ original registration . Hence he often forces Flat owner for additional expenditure vide calling for Home Commission, i.e registration at JVR Premises by Registerar's presence locally. 

4.       Have in major banks an amount of Rs 3,75,000/- or little more from where the Govt challans can be sent by electronic mode along with one cheque. Note down the Bank Name ,A/c No and IFSC code ,  (see example for details at Exibit-1  ) view cheque

5.       Your lawyer will generate the self eChallan .  (See Exibit-2  view  )  with following details shared to him a) Flat/ House Tax No available from tax challan being received by you b) Bank details as stated above c)Flat area is 1275.45sft  ( Exibit-3b view  )  plus vehicle parking 185sft ( Exibit-3c view ) d) Initial cost as described from the AFNHB Handing over document CLA/01 Dt ...  approx  Rs12,55,000/-   e)Owners & Co-Owners details with associated documents details.

6.       The word file for taking printout at the lawyers end is being appended as Exibit-3a  view & download. The wording are sacrosanct and any alteration other than the details of property and Owners may attract legal complications in future.

7.       Plan leave or presence in Kolkata, JVR for just one half day from 1400 hrs till 2000 hrs  for all Owners and Co-Owners only and lets designate it day D-15.

8.       At Day-0 with all above details in hand ask eChallan to be generated by lawyer . Please note the road on which the JVR Society is shown and some facilities existing inside the Society,  as many previous registrations have shown this incorrectly to be existing on some other road leading to their higher registration cost  .

9.       Ensure the AFNB authorised person is in town and will be present on the Registration Day in JVR.

Step-2

10.   After clarity available and go ahead given , lawyer now will get this eChallan generated from the Govt Registration Office (nil mistake is expected) and a eVoucher  (see Exibit-4 eChallan by Govt  & 5 eChallan to pay  ) .  If this eChallan is generated on Day-02, the obtaining of Govt receipt takes minimum 04 working days after its payment .

11.   Pay this echallan at your designated banks as intimated earlier. No change is permitted here. For this please write a cheque as shown in Exibit-1 with value as Exibit-5 and get it paid electronically by your Bank say on Day-4. In case the owner arranges the fund and Bank details as in above serials, through local representative, he may not have to come to Kolkata personally.

12.   Obtain the Govt receipt which is done by your lawyer say on Day-8

13.   Lawyer will now take appointment from the Astt Registrar for a Commission date (i.e gentleman will come to Flat / JVR rather than the family going to the Registration Office for a fee of Rs5000/- . This day can be altered /delayed maximum for 30 days as this is the max validity of eChallan value / assessment. Read last page of eChallan. Say this is Day-15.

Step-3

14.   Present yourself at the appointed time and place  or 02 hrs before as to avoid last minute changes will all Owners and Co-Owners.

15.   On this very day ensure you have signed the standard format authorisation paper for receiving / collecting the Registration Document from Govt Office by your lawyer else you may have to come for collecting the same.

16.   Delivery of the above Registration Document takes 08/12 days. Check digital Registration document at Exibit-6 digitally signed

Therefore your total Govt expenses is of eChallan say Rs3,70,000/-  plus Rs 5,000/- for Commission / Registrar services at your Flat making say Rs 3,75,000/-.

I have ensured a practical run of the above process flawlessly through a local Lawyer staying behind our JVR Society , Mr Tapas Naskar –Whatsapp 9831396370 and 8777034279 , whose all inclusive fee / charges including payments to govt staff , are as on today is Rs 13,000/- fixed.

Please do not get fleeced or cheated by a tout charging close to 40,000/- so far or reducing the Flat sft to artificially lower the registration fee. Registration activity has no link with outstanding Municipal House Tax if any. Mutation is a later activity. 

This service is also available for second sale , however the sale agreement  wording for the first few pages are different and non-alterable.

Taki a Weekend Get way from Kolkata

(year 2017 )Unless you are looking for a breakaway place near Kolkata or in picnic mood, do not have great expectations from this place. Enjoy the 02Km Iccha Mati river front where some Ghat & boating  facilities have been created by the local Municipality . This 08/10 feet wide road running parallel to the river is full with walking people and local 04 wheel Totos and  local Food Joints & Souvenir stalls cramping the 02 Km river front. There are some nearby spots generated just to give some variance or novelty but have nothing in great  to offer. except tranquillity and Eco-Setup . 

Taki is a cosy and quiet retreat, just a two-hour drive from the Kolkata city approx 73 km northeast  in North 24-Parganas, on the IcchaMati river front with the opposite side being Bangladesh border / riverline visible. It is also the gateway to the Sunderbans.

One may study the local Municipality site for local information and staying places at  http://www.takimunicipality.in/

All important spots as mentioned below are close by and can be covered in less than one day by using of a Battery Operated Toto  Rickshaw. Pay not more than Rs 200/- for 06 hrs trip and negotiate correctly to avoid harassment or cheating.
You may contact Mr Nabakumar Das cell-8944820380  , a Toto owner cum driver (speaks only  Bengali) for any local help /bookings.

GOING

Adjacent to the  Science City culvert (Kolkata EM By-pass )  get into the side lane to get on the  Basanti Road going towards Bantala. This is a fairly good double road for the first 60 Km journey.  On the way cross the Bantala Leather Complex at approx 18 Km. The landscape starts changing from Urban to Semi-urban and finally to rural. Villages with paddy fields and fish ponds appeared on either side of the road, replacing buildings.

The road will be busy with vehicles carrying fish and other products from the hinterland of   Bhangor, Bhojerhat, Ghatakpukur, Basanti and Malancha , which is more or less gateway to  Taki. From Malancha the road become narrow / One and half lane till Taki.

Beware of commercial drivers from their extreme rash driving.

Alternatively take a bus from Esplanade or a train from Sealdah. The local train “ Hasnabad local” leaving Sealdah station at Kolkata goes via Taki Road station.

From Taki Road station, Jetty Ghat takes 15 minutes by Toto rickshaw or shared van- rickshaw at Rs 30/- per head. River cruise boats can be hired at Jetty /Ghat in shared mode and a full boat booking is possible too .

The local people look forward to the annual reunion on Dashami (last day of Durga Puja rituals generally in Oct each year ). On that day, people from both sides of the border hoisting their national flags on boats carrying idols and meet in between the Ichhamati. The man-made boundary vanishes for the day.
