The deed must mention the personal information of the parties involved in the transaction, along with the details of the original deed. It also has to clearly mention the error that needs to be rectified. The parties will also have to furnish an undertaking, stating that no changes have been made in the original format and character of the sale deed.
If either party has found an error in the sale deed, the buyer and the seller will have to make an appearance in the sub-registrarÕs office, where the deed was previously registered. They will have to submit an application to the official, seeking correction in the document, along with all the supporting documents.
