Lease Deed in Guwahati: the process in Assam
Registration and legal formalities are governed at the state level, so the exact law, portal and fees for Guwahati follow Assam's rules. Here's how it works.
Governing law. TPA, 1882 (ss.105–117), the Registration Act, 1908, the Indian Stamp Act as amended for Assam, and the Indian Contract Act, 1872. Stamping and registration administered by IGR Assam (Sub-Registrar offices).
How lease deed works in Assam
- Negotiate commercial and legal terms of the lease
- Draft the lease deed
- Assess stamp duty (on rent/premium/term) and procure stamp paper / e-stamp
- Execute the deed — both parties and witnesses sign
- For leases over one year or year-to-year, book an SRO appointment and register before the Sub-Registrar
- Collect the registered deed with endorsement
Documents required in Assam
- ID and address proof of lessor and lessee
- Title/ownership documents of the property
- Passport-size photographs of the parties
- Witness details and ID
- Stamp paper / e-stamp certificate of the required value
- Any sanctioned plan/encumbrance documents (for commercial/long leases)
Good to know in Assam: Leases above one year (or year-to-year or reserving yearly rent) require a registered instrument to be valid and enforceable; unregistered long leases have limited evidentiary value. Commercial leases often involve higher duty. Verify the latest slabs and fees from IGR Assam.

Lease Deed FAQs
How is a lease deed different from a rental agreement?
A lease deed is used for longer terms and commercial properties, with more detailed clauses on lock-in, escalation and exit. Long-term leases generally require mandatory registration.
Is registration mandatory for a lease?
Leases beyond a certain duration (commonly 12 months and above) must be registered to be fully enforceable. We handle stamp duty and registration for you.
Can you draft leases for shops and offices?
Yes. We draft commercial leases for shops, offices, warehouses and other premises, with clauses suited to business use.
