CHANDIGARH, Jan 10 – Structural reforms in Punjab’s Revenue Department have led to the registration of over 3.70 lakh property documents between July and December 2025.
Data released on Friday shows a steady climb in activity, starting with 64,965 documents in July and peaking at over 76,000 in December. The growth follows the implementation of the Integrated Token Management System, which prioritizes applicants with scheduled appointments and verified paperwork.
“This steady rise reflects growing public confidence in a technology-driven framework,” said Revenue Minister Hardeep Singh Mundian. “We have dismantled the old ‘VIP culture’ in property registration by ensuring that documentation is handled strictly in the order it is received.”
Beyond the digital portal, the state has opened Sewa Kendra counters at every Sub-Registrar office and launched a doorstep registration service via the 1076 helpline. A “Draft My Deed” module now allows citizens to prepare their own legal documents without needing third-party intermediaries.
“We have simplified the financial side as well,” the Minister stated. “Online payment of stamp duty and fees is now possible through 25 different banks in a single transaction.”
To ensure the new rules are followed, Deputy Commissioners and SDMs are now tasked with monitoring all objections raised during the scrutiny process to prevent frivolous delays.
