The Inspector General of Registration in Maharashtra, along with the Department of Registration and Stamps, has introduced an online e registration system for property agreements, marking a significant step in digital governance.
Hiranandani Fortune City in Panvel has become the first real estate project in the state to adopt this new system. The framework enables end to end digital registration of property agreements, removing the need for physical visits to Sub Registrar Offices. Processes such as agreement drafting, Aadhaar based e KYC, biometric verification, payment of stamp duty and registration charges, and final agreement registration can now be completed securely on a digital platform.
“This initiative is a transformative step in bringing government services closer to citizens. By leveraging digital technology, we aim to provide faster, transparent and hassle free registration services while maintaining the highest legal sanctity,” IGR Maharashtra said in a statement.
The new system will allow both homebuyers and developers to complete registrations from any location, with every transaction digitally tracked and monitored. It is designed to build trust and accountability, while offering faster approvals and immediate access to digitally signed agreements.
Security has been a key focus in the framework. Aadhaar based verification, biometric authentication and encrypted data handling ensure legal and technical integrity of each transaction. The move also supports sustainability by cutting down on paper usage and reducing environmental impact.
Dr Niranjan Hiranandani, founder and chairperson of the Hiranandani Group, said: “This launch is a defining moment in the digital transformation of India’s real estate ecosystem. It aligns with our long standing belief that technology and transparency are the twin engines of progress. By eliminating outdated manual processes, the government is empowering both developers and citizens through convenience, accountability and security.”
He added: “We are proud to be the first movers in adopting this forward looking reform. Our team has worked closely with the IGR office to ensure seamless implementation at our projects, and we are confident this model will be widely embraced across the state.”
Industry experts believe this system will transform property transactions by improving buyer experience, reducing delays and boosting ease of doing business. Several leading developers are already showing interest in adopting the platform.
