Below are the detailed steps for registering a rent agreement in Karnataka:
Step 1:Prepare a draft of the rental agreement that mentions the following basic details:
Name and permanent residential address of the owner (landlord)
Name and permanent residential address of the tenant
Address of the property being put up on lease
Tenure of the rental agreement
Financial consideration including monthly rent and security deposit payable
Any other terms and conditions the tenant or owner wishes to apply
Step 2: After verification by both parties (the tenant and the owner), print this draft agreement on a stamp
paper of Rs 100 or above. Stamp paper can be procured from a registered stamp vendor, a legal
practitioner, or from the court campus.
In the absence of a stamp paper, you may also print the draft agreement on a plain paper and get it
franked for Rs 100 from an authorized bank. Banks levy a small franking charge for this, which is usually
around 0.1% of the franking amount. It is to be noted that not all banks are authorized to frank
documents.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO NOT SIGN THE DOCUMENT BEFORE FRANKING. BANKS DO NOT
FRANK THE DOCUMENT IF IT IS SIGNED BY EITHER OF THE PARTIES.
Step 3: Visit the Sub-Registrar’s Office (SRO) under whose jurisdiction the property comes, for
registration of the agreement. Pay the stamp duty and registration charges at the office. Both the parties
and witnesses are required to sign the document before the Sub-registrar.
You may visit the website of Kaveri Online Services to locate the SRO for your property.

Document mentioning the property details such as Property Khata, Property Identification
Number (PID), or sale agreement of the property
