What is a Possession Certificate?

A Possession Certificate verifies the date and legality of transferring physical occupancy of a property from seller to buyer. It’s typically needed alongside the sale deed.

• Proof of Hand-Over: Confirms new owner’s right to occupy.
• Legal Clarity: Reduces disputes about move-in or usage timelines.
• Issued by Developers: Often mandatory for financed or newly built units.
• Links to Title: Must align with ownership documents.

This certificate protects buyers and ensures no third-party claims on occupancy rights.
