What the notification does

Notification No. 3069/ஆஎனநி/2023-1 dated 15 February 2023, issued by the Secretary and Additional Registrar of the Tamil Nadu Document Writers Welfare Fund Board, calls for applications from document writers’ associations seeking recognition and registration under the Tamil Nadu Document Writers Welfare Fund Act, 2022.

The notification states that the Tamil Nadu Document Writers Welfare Fund Board was established and became operational from 2 December 2022. It also states that the Tamil Nadu Document Writers Welfare Fund Act, 2022 was notified to come into force from 2 December 2023.

Who it affects

The application process applies to document writers’ associations that want recognition and registration under the welfare fund law. It does not announce any change to land ownership, property registration procedures, stamp duty or fees payable by property buyers.

All District Registrars were asked to:

  • Display the notification on their office notice boards.
  • Inform document writers and document writers’ associations within their administrative areas.
  • Facilitate publication of the notification on the Registration Department website through the CS Section.

Application requirements

Document writers’ associations seeking recognition and registration were instructed to submit Form I, prescribed under the Tamil Nadu Document Writers Welfare Fund Rules, 2022, to the Tamil Nadu Document Writers Welfare Fund Board by 28 February 2023.

Each application had to include:

  • The required particulars in Form I.
  • A copy of the association’s bylaws.
  • A list containing details of its members.
  • The registration certificate showing that the document writers’ association was registered.
  • Evidence that the association continued to function properly up to the date of application.

Applications were required to be complete and submitted without omissions.

Practical relevance

Notification No. 3069/ஆஎனநி/2023-1 concerns the institutional recognition of document writers’ associations, rather than a particular property or document registration. A property buyer or owner would mainly encounter its effects indirectly when dealing with a document writer who belongs to an association seeking recognition under the welfare fund framework.
