YEIDA Plot Transfer & Resale
YEIDA Plot Transfer Fee (TM Fee) & Mutation Charges Breakdown for Resale Buyers (2026 Guide)
To acquire a legal title recognized by the authority, resale transactions must go through the official Transfer Memorandum (TM) process. Buyers and sellers must factor in official Transfer Memorandum (TM) fees, Permission to Lease (PTL) approvals, statutory stamp duty, mutation charges, and any accrued non-construction extension penalties.
Summary Table: Statutory Fees for YEIDA Resale Plot Transfers
Fee Category | Governing Rule / Rate Benchmark | Responsible Party (Standard Market Terms) | Impact on Total Budget |
Transfer Memorandum (TM) Fee | Calculated as a percentage of prevailing YEIDA allotment rates (typically 2.5% to 5% based on category/sector rules) | Negotiable (Often split 50:50 or borne by Buyer) | Major Dues (Lakhs of Rupees) |
Permission to Lease (PTL) Fee | Fixed administrative processing fee per application | Seller / Primary Allottee | Statutory Authority Clearance |
Stamp Duty & Registration | 5% to 7% of total agreement/circle rate value (state-level fee) | Resale Buyer | Major Government Tax |
Mutation (Dakhil Kharij) Fee | Fixed authority processing charge for updating official register | Resale Buyer | Final Name Entry in Authority Records |
Unpaid Installments & Dues | Pending allotment balances + interest accrued | Seller (Must be zero prior to TM) | Liabilities Must Be Cleared First |
Non-Construction Extension Fee | Penalty accrued if initial 3-year building deadline has passed | Negotiable (Seller must clear or Buyer assumes) | Critical Risk Item |

Obtaining the No-Dues Certificate (NDC): The seller must clear all pending land installments, interest charges, water connections, and maintenance dues to obtain an official NDC from YEIDA.
Permission to Lease (PTL) Application: Before TM issuance, the primary allottee applies for Permission to Lease. YEIDA verifies that the plot is free from encumbrances, litigation, or unauthorized encroachments.
Digital TM Submission & Biometric Verification: The buyer and seller initiate the Transfer Memorandum request via the online portal. Both parties undergo biometric verification and submit digital signatures to prevent fraudulent broker transactions.
Deposit of TM Fees: The prescribed TM fee is calculated based on current YEIDA rate benchmarks (e.g., ₹35,000 to ₹36,260/sq. mtr.) and deposited directly into the authority’s bank account.
Issuance of Transfer Letter: Upon verifying documents and receiving fees, YEIDA issues the official Transfer Letter. This document legally recognizes the buyer as the new allottee.
Sub-Lease Registration & Final Mutation: Armed with the Transfer Letter, the buyer pays state stamp duty, executes the tripartite sub-lease deed at the Sub-Registrar Office, and submits the registered deed to YEIDA for final Mutation (Dakhil Kharij).

[RESALE BUYERS] [EXISTING SELLERS]
❌ Buying via Unregistered GPA or Chhut Sattam ❌ Selling with Unpaid Extension Fees
❌ Ignoring Accrued Extension Penalties ❌ Skipping PTL / NOC Approvals
❌ Skipping Final Mutation Entry ❌ Incomplete Biometric / Title Records
1. For Resale Buyers: Unverified Dues & Off-Record GPA Deals
Attempting to save on TM fees or stamp duty by executing informal General Power of Attorney (GPA) deals leaves you without a legal title in YEIDA’s master register. Furthermore, if the previous owner missed their 3-year building deadline, accrued extension penalties transfer directly to you upon TM execution. Always verify that a resale plot holds a clear title and zero pending liabilities. Review verified, clear-title options on our [Resale Plot Listings] before paying earnest money.
2. For Existing Plot Owners: Delaying Mutation & Ignoring Building Rules
If you are selling a plot in Sectors 18, 20, or 22D, failing to secure a formal No-Dues Certificate or ignoring pending non-construction notices will stall your TM processing. Furthermore, if the buyer intends to build immediately, ensuring your site plan aligns with the official [Building Plan Approval Process] streamlines the entire transfer and construction lifecycle.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: What is the Transfer Memorandum (TM) Fee in YEIDA?
The TM Fee is an official administrative charge levied by YEIDA to transfer the allotment rights of a residential plot from the original allottee to a new buyer. It is calculated based on a percentage of the prevailing authority land rate.
Q2: Who pays the TM fee during a YEIDA plot resale?
By standard market practice along the Yamuna Expressway, the payment of the TM fee is negotiable between buyer and seller. In many transactions, the cost is split 50:50, or paid entirely by the buyer as part of the total deal structure.
Q3: Why is Mutation (Dakhil Kharij) necessary after executing a Sub-Lease Deed?
Executing a registered sub-lease deed at the Sub-Registrar office completes state tax formalities, but Mutation updates your name directly in YEIDA’s official master register. Without mutation, you cannot apply for building plan approvals or obtain a Completion Certificate.
Q4: Can a YEIDA plot be transferred if it has an expired construction deadline?
Yes, but all accrued non-construction extension charges must be cleared with YEIDA, or an official extension application submitted, before the authority will issue a Transfer Memorandum. Read our full [YEIDA Completion Certificate Guide] to understand building compliance timelines.
