About Perunazhi Sub-Registrar Office

Perunazhi Sub-Registrar Office (SRO) is a key property registration office in Ramanathapuram district, functioning under the Ramanathapuram zone of the Tamil Nadu Registration Department. For buyers, sellers, and families handling inheritance or partition, the Perunazhi SRO is the official authority where property documents are registered and preserved for legal proof of ownership.

This SRO covers 15 villages within its jurisdiction and manages land records linked to approximately 5,431 survey numbers. If your property falls under these survey numbers, registrations such as sale, gift, partition, lease, or will-related filings are typically completed at the Perunazhi SRO. Knowing your village and survey number in advance helps you verify jurisdiction, confirm guideline value, and avoid delays during the appointment.

Documents Required for Registration

Carry original documents along with supporting photocopies as required. A complete file reduces objections and repeat visits.

• Sale deed / title documents (drafted as per the transaction type and ready for execution)
• ID proofs of buyer and seller: Aadhaar and PAN (recommended to carry both)
• Photographs of buyer and seller (passport-size, as applicable)
• Encumbrance Certificate (EC) to confirm transaction history and check for registered encumbrances
• Patta copy (latest available record for the property)
• Property tax receipts (latest paid receipts, especially for house sites/buildings)
• Previous sale deeds / chain of title (prior link documents establishing ownership continuity)

Tip: If the property is jointly owned, ensure all owners (or authorized POA holders) are available with IDs and supporting authorization documents.

Registration Process at Perunazhi SRO

1. Check guideline value for your survey number using the Tamil Nadu Registration Department resources (TNReginet). Guideline value impacts stamp duty calculation and valuation checks.
2. Calculate stamp duty and registration fee. For a typical sale deed, buyers commonly consider stamp duty at 7% and registration fee at 2% (subject to category/transaction rules).
3. Prepare and sign the sale deed (or relevant deed such as gift/partition/lease). Ensure names, survey details, measurements, boundaries, consideration value, and schedule are accurate.
4. Book a slot online via the TNReginet portal. Select the appropriate SRO (Perunazhi), choose service type, enter party details, and confirm appointment time.
5. Visit Perunazhi SRO with all documents on the appointment date. Parties, witnesses (if required), and originals should be present.
6. Biometric verification and document scanning are completed at the office. Officials verify identity, signatures, and document completeness before acceptance.
7. Collection of registered document. After successful registration, you can collect the registered document as per the SRO’s delivery process (same day or later, depending on workflow).

Practical note: Keep soft copies and photocopies ready, and double-check survey number, sub-division, and village name to match patta/EC records.
