Registration of sale deeds goes online in some talukas of Goa

Registration of sale deeds has become a hasslefree process in some talukas of the state with the government introducing the National Generic Document Registration System to facilitate registration of sale deeds online. The new system is already functional in Tiswadi and Bardez and is set to be adopted by all talukas. State registrar AshutoshApte said that they received directions from the central government to adopt the new system and that accordingly it has been made applicable at taluka offices, and personnel have been trained. To register a sale deed, a person has to simply upload the document on a link mentioned on the registrar’s website. The registering authority, the sub-registrar, will get two days to examine the uploaded document, Apte said, adding documents will be scrutinised on first come first basis, which eliminates favouritism in processing documents.
