Hiranandani Fortune City, located in Panvel, has become the first real estate project in Maharashtra to implement this innovative system. The framework allows for the complete online registration of property agreements, eliminating the need for physical visits to Sub-Registrar Offices (SROs).
Under the new system, all key steps in the registration process, such as agreement drafting, Aadhaar-based e-KYC, biometric verification, payment of stamp duty and registration charges, and final agreement registration, are executed securely through a digital platform. This ensures a faster, transparent, and hassle-free registration process while maintaining the highest legal sanctity.
IGR Maharashtra stated, “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.”
The system will enable homebuyers and developers to register agreements from any location, eliminating the need to visit the SRO. Every transaction will be digitally tracked and monitored by IGR Maharashtra, ensuring a high level of trust and accountability. The digital workflow significantly speeds up approvals and provides immediate access to digitally signed agreements, reducing paperwork and administrative delays.
Built-in security features, including Aadhaar-based identity verification, biometric authentication, and encrypted data handling, maintain the integrity of transactions. The system also supports sustainability goals by eliminating the need for paper-based documentation, thereby 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 By eliminating outdated manual processes, the government is empowering both developers and citizens through convenience, accountability, and security.”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. The e-registration initiative will significantly reduce transactional friction and boost ease of doing business for domestic and NRI homebuyers.”
This digital initiative is expected to revolutionize property transactions, enhancing both the buyer experience and operational efficiency for developers. Several leading real estate firms have expressed interest in adopting the system, indicating a positive shift towards a more modern and efficient real estate market in Maharashtra.
