The Affidavit of Lost Deed is a critical legal document used in Indian property law when original property deeds have been misplaced, destroyed, or otherwise lost. This document becomes necessary when property owners need to establish their ownership rights in the absence of original documentation, particularly during property transactions, mortgage applications, or legal proceedings. The affidavit must be executed in accordance with Indian legal requirements, including proper notarization and registration where required. It typically contains detailed information about the property, the lost document, circumstances of loss, and verification of ownership. This document is recognized under the Indian Registration Act, 1908, and various state registration laws as a necessary step in reconstructing property records or obtaining certified copies of lost documents.
