How to request a doorstep visit
- Contact us by call, WhatsApp or the enquiry form with your locality and preferred dates.
- Finalise the draft. The agreement details are confirmed before any visit is scheduled.
- Choose a slot. We confirm a date, time window and address. If the owner and tenant are in different places, separate visits can be planned where possible.
- The visit. Identity is verified and biometrics captured through the authorised procedure.
- Registration. The department processes the registration, and the registered copy is shared with you.
What a doorstep visit can cover
- Appointment scheduling around the owner's, tenant's and witnesses' availability.
- Document checks, where appropriate - confirming originals match the details in the draft.
- Identity verification coordination for each party.
- Photograph and biometric capture through authorised procedures and devices, where legally required for registration.
Important
A doorstep visit does not by itself complete legal registration. The agreement is registered only when the Department of Registration and Stamps, Government of Maharashtra, registers the document. We are a private service provider and coordinate the process on your behalf.
What to keep ready for the visit
- Original identity proof (generally Aadhaar) for every person whose authentication is due.
- The mobile number linked to Aadhaar, if OTP-based steps are involved.
- PAN card, where applicable.
- Witness availability, if witnesses are being authenticated at the same visit.

Why biometric authentication is needed
Registration law requires the parties to a document to be identified. In Maharashtra's online registration process this is done through Aadhaar-based authentication, which commonly involves fingerprint capture. The method is set by IGR Maharashtra and can change, so we follow the procedure in force at the time. Read the role of biometrics in rent agreement registration.
Doorstep visit charges
There is no separate doorstep charge: our service charge is a flat ₹1,000 per agreement, whether you visit our Pune office or we arrange a doorstep appointment. Stamp duty, the registration fee (₹1,000 urban, ₹500 rural) and ₹300 document handling charges are shown separately. Use the charges calculator for your exact total.
Frequently asked questions
Can I get a rent agreement made from home?
Yes, in most cases. Drafting can be handled over phone and WhatsApp, and where biometric authentication is required a visit can be arranged at your home or office through the authorised process, subject to availability in your area.
A doorstep visit is for identity verification and biometric capture - it does not by itself complete registration. Registration is complete only once the document is registered by the Department of Registration and Stamps. Learn more about our doorstep service.
Is biometric verification required for a rent agreement in Maharashtra?
For registration, the parties' identities must be verified. In the online registration process this is done through Aadhaar-based authentication, which usually involves biometric (fingerprint) capture or the method currently permitted by the department.
The exact authentication method is set by IGR Maharashtra and can change. We coordinate the appointment so it happens correctly and at a convenient time. Read the role of biometrics in rent agreement registration.
How long does rent agreement registration take?
It depends mainly on how quickly the details are confirmed and when all parties complete authentication. Once both parties have completed authentication and payments, online registration is usually completed without a visit to the Sub-Registrar office.
We share a realistic timeline after reviewing your case, rather than a blanket promise. Delays usually come from missing details, mismatched names across documents, or a party being unavailable for authentication.
What documents are required for a rent agreement?
Typically: identity proof of the owner, tenant and witnesses (Aadhaar is generally used for authentication), PAN where applicable, a property ownership or address proof such as a tax receipt or Index II, and the agreed rent, deposit and period.
Exact requirements depend on the agreement type and the current registration procedure. See the full documents checklist. Please do not send identity documents through website forms - we will tell you the secure way to share them.
