Power of Attorney Drafting & Registration in Pune

A Power of Attorney (PoA) is a legal document that allows you to authorise a trusted person to act on your behalf for specific or general matters – such as property transactions, banking, court matters or personal affairs. Whether you are a working professional, senior citizen or staying outside Pune/India, a properly drafted Power of Attorney saves time, prevents confusion and ensures your work continues smoothly even when you are not physically present.

At Legal Assure, Pune, our team drafts clear, legally sound Power of Attorney documents that match your exact requirement and comply with applicable laws. We also guide you through stamping, registration and notarisation so that your document is accepted by authorities without hassle.

A properly drafted Power of Attorney reduces the risk of misuse, disputes and refusal by authorities. It is a practical safety tool to ensure your work never stops, even when you are not present.

Why do you need a Power of Attorney?

Convenience for Property & Financial Matters

Authorise a trusted person to sign documents, complete registration, handle banking or deal with government authorities on your behalf, especially when you are travelling, posted elsewhere or not keeping well.

Support for Senior Citizens & NRIs

For parents, elderly family members and NRIs, a Power of Attorney is often the most practical way to manage property, rental income, bill payments and other legal work in India through a reliable family member or representative.

Continuity During Travel, Illness or Emergencies

Life events such as long-term travel, transfer to another city, surgery or sudden illness can interrupt important legal and financial tasks. With a valid Power of Attorney, your chosen representative can continue these activities without delay.

Frequently asked questions

Registration is not compulsory for all Powers of Attorney. However, where the PoA relates to transfer or registration of immovable property, registration and proper stamping are strongly recommended and, in many cases, practically required by Sub-Registrar offices and authorities. Registered PoA documents carry stronger evidentiary value and are less likely to be disputed.

Any individual owning property must create a will. Any trustworthy, legally competent adult (18 years and above, of sound mind) can be appointed – such as a spouse, parent, child, close relative, friend or professional representative. For NRIs, it is usually someone who is regularly available in India and can attend offices, banks or courts when required.

Yes. As the principal, you can revoke your Power of Attorney at any time, as long as you are of sound mind and the PoA is not irrevocable by its nature or law. The revocation should ideally be done through a written Revocation Deed, and in case of a registered PoA, the revocation should also be notified/registered and communicated to the attorney and concerned authorities.

For many general purposes, a notarised PoA may be accepted. However, for property transactions and registrations, Sub-Registrars usually insist on a registered PoA executed on appropriate stamp paper. Our team will guide you on the safest option based on your use case and the practice followed in Pune.

Yes. An NRI can sign a Power of Attorney before the Indian Consulate / Embassy or before a Notary / authorised officer abroad, and then have it adjudicated/registered in India as per local rules. We assist NRIs with the correct draft, attestation process and subsequent formalities in Pune so that the document is accepted by local authorities.
