Everything in PM-UDAY - the colony check, the documents, the GIS survey - leads to one outcome: the Conveyance Deed. This is the document that actually makes your possession legal ownership. Here is exactly what it is and what changes once you have it.
What Is a Conveyance Deed?
A Conveyance Deed is a legal document issued by DDA that transfers ownership of the land to you under PM-UDAY. It serves as proof of title - the government's formal acknowledgement that you own this specific plot. Unlike a private sale between two parties, the Conveyance Deed comes directly from the authority regularising the colony.
Where It Fits in the PM-UDAY Journey
Colony eligibility check
Confirm your colony is on the notified list of 1,511 unauthorised colonies.
Document collection
Possession proof, chain of conveyances, identity and address proof - see the full checklist.
GIS survey
On-site plot verification and measurement - see the GIS survey guide.
Verification & charge computation
DDA verifies documents and computes the applicable charges for your plot.
Conveyance Deed issued
Once charges are paid and everything checks out, the Conveyance Deed is registered in your name - the final step.
What Charges Are Involved
Being upfront here: there is no single fixed fee table we can honestly give you, because the charges depend on your locality's circle rate and your plot's size. The components are:
- Conveyance Deed charge - based on circle rate and plot area, similar in structure to stamp duty on a sale deed
- Stamp duty - applicable on the Conveyance Deed value
- Registration fees - paid at the time of registration
- DDA processing charges - administrative charges levied during file processing
The one component that
is fixed - the GIS survey fee - you can calculate instantly with our

What You Can Do Once You Have It
Holding a registered Conveyance Deed changes your legal position significantly:
- Sell the property through a regular, registered Sale Deed - just like any other property in Delhi
- Approach banks for a home loan, since the property now has clear, recognised title (subject to the bank's own valuation and policy)
- Get MCD mutation done in your name for property tax purposes
- Pass it on cleanly to your heirs via a Will or further transfer
Conveyance Deed vs Sale Deed - Not the Same Thing
These get confused often. The Conveyance Deed is issued once, by DDA, to establish your ownership under PM-UDAY. A Sale Deed is what you execute later, at the Sub-Registrar Office, if and when you sell the property to someone else. Think of the Conveyance Deed as the document that finally makes the property "clean" - the Sale Deed is what you'd use afterwards, exactly like any other registered Delhi property.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Conveyance Deed under PM-UDAY?
A legal document issued by DDA that transfers ownership of the land to you under PM-UDAY. It is issued after document verification, the GIS survey, and computation of applicable charges.
What charges are payable for the PM-UDAY Conveyance Deed?
The Conveyance Deed charge (based on circle rate and plot size), stamp duty, registration fees, and DDA processing charges - these vary by locality and plot, so contact us for an exact quote.
Can I sell my property after getting the Conveyance Deed?
Yes - once you hold a registered Conveyance Deed, you can execute a regular Sale Deed to transfer the property, just like any other registered property in Delhi.
Can I get a home loan after the Conveyance Deed?
Once registered with clear title, banks can consider the property as security, subject to their own valuation and policy - generally not possible before regularisation.
Is the Conveyance Deed the same as a Sale Deed?
No - the Conveyance Deed is issued once by DDA to establish ownership under PM-UDAY. A Sale Deed is what you'd execute later if you sell the property.
