While dealing with sale or purchase of properties, one cannot afford to miss any property related title document such as Sale Deed, Power of Attorney, Conveyance Deed, Agreement to Sell, etc. Even if a single property documents is missing, selling the property or taking a loan from the bank will become a very difficult task.

In such cases, getting a duplicate/certified copy of the lost property papers is the only solution. The certified copy will act as a substitute for the Original Property Papers. One can also obtain an Encumbrance Certificate to ensure that the missing property papers have not been misused by anyone.

It is possible that the original title deed might have been handed over to a person with the intention of mortgaging the property or may have been used as a security for obtaining loan from a bank or for some other transaction such as a sale etc. The original title deed may have been stolen or might have fallen into the wrong hands and, thus, there would be the possibility of a fraudulent transaction being effected by making use of the original title deed. In all these cases, it is the subsequent buyer or purchaser who will suffer. One should obtain an Encumbrance Certificate to ensure that the lost property papers have not been misused.

Parties also need certified copies in case of property related disputes/suits that are pending before the court. Property Certified true copies can be used as evidence for proving the ownership of properties and the contents of the document when the other party is not presenting the original property documents in the Court.

When an original deed is lost the public may be notified through a newspaper of the loss of the original title deeds and claims may be invited within a specified period. Thereafter, if there are no claims within the specified period, the advocate may issue a certificate to this effect. If the deed is a registered document, then a certified copy of deed can be obtained. The following details are required for getting the copy: Name of Parties, Date of Registration, Registration Particulars etc. If these particulars are missing/not available, it will be difficult to trace the documents and get the certified copy. In such cases, the parties will have to engage the services of professionals who can search and locate the documents.

Generally it is easier to obtain the certified copies of Book 1 Documents such as Sale Deed, Agreement to Sell, Gift Deed, Conveyance Deed, Release Deed, Relinquishment Deed etc. However, it is difficult to obtain the copies of documents like Will and Power of Attorney because usually, they are available only to the parties of the document.
