Overview
When a document has been registered at the Sub-Registrar and a mistake is found in it afterwards, it can be corrected only through a Rectification Deed, duly registered at the Sub-Registrar.
When you need it
- A name, a spelling or a parentage is wrong
- The property number, area or boundaries are wrongly described
- A typographical error affects the meaning of the deed
Documents usually required
Open as checklist- The original registered document
- Proof of the correct details
- ID proof and photographs of all original parties
- Two witnesses with ID proof
This is an indicative list. Exact requirements depend on the property, the authority and your situation, and we confirm the full list after reviewing your papers.
How it works

The deed records only the correction.
- 3

Good to know
A rectification can correct genuine mistakes, but it cannot change the substance of the original transaction.
