Frequently Asked Questions

Jhansi is a fast-growing Tier-2 city with upcoming infrastructure projects, good connectivity to Lucknow, Kanpur, and Delhi, and rising demand for both residential and commercial properties. Property prices are still affordable compared to metros, making it a strong investment opportunity.

Key documents include:

• Sale deed / Agreement to sell
• Mother deed (chain of ownership)
• Property tax receipts
• Mutation/Khata certificate
• Encumbrance certificate
• RERA registration (if applicable for new projects)

You can verify approval with the Jhansi Development Authority (JDA). Always check the sanctioned layout plan, land-use certificate, and RERA registration number (if it’s a project).

The Jhansi Development Authority (JDA) is the government body that regulates land use, construction, and development in Jhansi. A property with JDA approval ensures that it follows proper zoning, building, and safety norms.

Visit the official JDA website (www.jdaup.in) or office to verify project details. You can request the builder for the JDA approval letter and sanctioned building plan before investing.

No, you cannot build directly on agricultural land without land-use conversion. You need to apply to JDA for conversion to residential/commercial use before construction.

RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Authority) is a government act that regulates the real estate sector. It ensures transparency, timely project delivery, and protects buyers against false promises by developers.

You can search for the project on the Uttar Pradesh RERA website (www.up-rera.in). All new residential and commercial projects with more than 8 units or 500 sq.m. of land must be registered with RERA.

Apart from the property price, buyers usually pay:

• Stamp duty (7% in UP) + Registration charges (1%)
• GST (for under-construction properties: 1% for affordable housing, 5% for others)
• Maintenance charges (for flats)
• Legal and brokerage fees (if any)

Yes, NRIs can buy both residential and commercial properties in Jhansi. However, they cannot purchase agricultural land, plantation land, or farmhouses.

Yes, most leading banks and housing finance companies provide home loans for JDA-approved and RERA-registered projects. Always confirm legal clearance before applying.

Popular residential areas include Sipri Bazar, Nandanpura, Civil Lines, Elite, and areas near medical college and railway station. For future growth, look at areas around Kanpur Road and Gwalior Road.

JDA-approved plots come with legal assurance, clear titles, and access to planned infrastructure like roads, drainage, and electricity, reducing future risks.

While not mandatory, it is strongly recommended. A lawyer can verify land title, approval documents, and ensure the sale deed protects your interests.
