Pune residents can now register leave and licence agreements online through the Inspector General of Registration (IGR) portal, the city administration announced. The process, launched this week, allows property owners and tenants to complete registration digitally, including agreement drafting, payment, biometric verification, and final registration with the sub-registrar’s office, according to livemint.com.
The online registration process begins with entering property and party details on the IGR portal. Users then prepare the leave and licence agreement digitally, pay the applicable charges online, and complete biometric verification. The final step involves registration confirmation by the sub-registrar’s office, eliminating the need for physical visits. This streamlined approach aims to reduce delays and avoid police action related to unregistered agreements, the report said.
This digital move aligns with broader efforts to modernize property transactions in India, where manual processes often cause inefficiencies. Pune’s initiative follows similar steps taken by other cities to digitize property registration and improve transparency. The online system is expected to enhance compliance and reduce disputes by providing a clear, verifiable record of agreements, a key factor in the real estate sector’s regulatory environment.
The Pune municipal administration confirmed the online registration system is operational as of August 2026. Property owners and tenants can access the IGR portal to complete their leave and licence agreement registrations without visiting the sub-registrar’s office physically, marking a significant step in digitizing property services in the city.
