Rectification Deed (Correction Deed) in Bhopal
Found a mistake in your registered sale deed or property document — a wrong name spelling, plot or khasra number, area figure, or boundary detail? A rectification deed (also called a correction deed) is the legal way to fix a genuine error in an already-registered document. Maya Legal Hub drafts and registers it correctly in Bhopal.
What is a rectification deed?
A rectification deed is a supplementary document executed by the same parties to correct an unintentional error in a previously registered deed. It refers to the original deed, states the mistake, and records the correct particulars — so your property records stay clean and dispute-free.
When you need a rectification / correction deed
- Misspelt name of the buyer, seller or a party
- Wrong plot number, khasra/khatauni number or survey number
- Incorrect area, measurement or boundary description
- Typographical errors in the property or schedule details
- Wrong father’s name, address or other identity particulars
Conditions for a valid rectification deed
- The error must be genuine and unintentional (clerical or factual), not a change to the substance of the transaction
- All original parties must agree and sign the correction
- It should be executed and, for property, registered at the sub-registrar office
Process & stamp duty in Bhopal
For minor clerical corrections that do not change the value or parties, a rectification deed usually attracts only a nominal stamp duty and registration fee. Where the correction affects the property extent or consideration, higher duty may apply. The deed is signed by the original parties and registered at the sub-registrar, referencing the original deed’s number and date. Maya Legal Hub drafts it, calculates the correct duty and completes the registration.
Documents required
- Original registered deed that contains the error
- ID proof of all original parties
- Proof supporting the correct detail (e.g., records showing the right khasra number or spelling)
- Photographs of parties and witnesses for registration

What is a rectification deed?
A rectification deed is a document executed by the same parties to correct a genuine, unintentional error — such as a wrong name, plot number or area — in a previously registered deed, so the record reflects the correct particulars.
How much stamp duty is charged on a rectification deed in MP?
For minor clerical corrections that don’t change the value or parties, a rectification deed generally attracts only a nominal stamp duty and registration fee. If the correction affects the property extent or consideration, higher duty may apply.
Do both parties need to sign the rectification deed?
Yes. Because it corrects an existing agreement, the original parties must consent to and sign the rectification deed, and for property it is registered at the sub-registrar office.
Can a rectification deed correct a wrong khasra or plot number?
Yes. A wrong khasra, survey or plot number is one of the most common reasons for a rectification deed, provided it is a genuine error supported by the correct records.
