Hi, 1 - Out of Rs 1.6 crore worth purchase,Is your wife going to contribute Rs 65 lakhs? 2 - What is the Guidance value of the Property as per the Govt? (Registration office) 3 - Payment should be made to the government through payment of DD/ pay order issued by any nationalised bank/scheduled bank or challan.  The D.D. should be drawn in favor  of the Sub Registrar concerned. Tax @ 1% should be deducted by the purchaser of the property at the time of making payment of sale consideration.
