Same Maharashtra rules, registered online
Leave and license agreements in Navi Mumbai must be registered under Section 55 of the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999, with stamp duty under Article 36A of the Maharashtra Stamp Act. Registration can be done online through IGR Maharashtra or at the relevant Sub-Registrar office.
CIDCO-allotted properties
Much of Navi Mumbai was developed by CIDCO, and many properties sit on land allotted by CIDCO. Ownership papers can therefore look different from elsewhere - allotment letters, transfer documents or society share certificates alongside the usual tax receipt. Use the documents that clearly show the current owner's name and the full address, and check whether your society or allotment terms place any conditions on letting the property.
If you're unsure whether CIDCO or society permission applies to your property, ask your society office or CIDCO before finalising the agreement. We can draft once that's clear.
Shared flats and multiple tenants
Kharghar, Belapur and the areas around IT parks have a lot of shared accommodation for students and working professionals. When several people share a flat, decide whether all of them will be licensees on one agreement. Every licensee named in the agreement generally completes identity authentication, so plan for each person's availability.
Tenant information to Navi Mumbai Police
Landlords are generally expected to share tenant details with the police. Navi Mumbai has its own police commissionerate; check its official website for the current process.
