Property Mutation (Intiqal) in Punjab — PLRA Procedure & Disputes

Mutations We Handle

• Sale mutation — after the registered deed, completing the record so the purchase is reflected;
• Gift (hiba) mutation — with the gift's essentials properly documented, since family gift entries are the most litigated;
• Inheritance mutation — heirs' shares recorded per entitlement; excluded sisters and daughters restored through challenge;
• Contested mutations — appeals/review before the revenue hierarchy, and civil suits for declaration and cancellation with injunctions where fraud or forgery is involved;
• Record verification — fard checks before purchase and periodic checks for overseas owners.

The Two Rules That Prevent Property Disasters

1. Title flows from the deed; the record must follow it. Mutation doesn't cure a defective deed — and a valid purchase left un-mutated invites double-sales and fraud. Do both, properly, in sequence.
2. Check the fard before money moves. The current record of rights, its mutation history and pending entries — a one-day verification that prevents years of litigation. We run it as standard due diligence.
