The Delhi government is set to implement a fully online and paperless property registration system within the next five to six months. This initiative aims to streamline the registration process by requiring buyers and sellers to visit the sub-registrar’s office only for biometric authentication. All other procedures, including application filing and ownership verification, will be conducted online, with documents delivered via the DigiLocker app. This move is expected to reduce human intervention and curb fraud in property transactions by creating a more transparent and digitally traceable system. Although previous attempts to digitize property registrations faced delays, the current government is making progress, with plans to engage a top-tier software firm for the platform's development. Currently, Delhi utilizes the National Generic Document Registration System (NGDRS) and the Delhi Online Registration Information System (DORIS), but the proposed overhaul aims to fully digitize and enhance the efficiency of the registration process.
