My daughter, who is staying in the US, wants to rent her flat. She cannot come down to India just for signing the lease deed. The tenant is in India, and the flat proposed to be rented is in Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh. Could my friends send me a draft copy of the lease deed/rent agreement viable in such conditions?
Is it legal to sign the document(s) while sitting in the US for my daughter? How much amount of stamp paper is to be used? I request only the format which is needed to keep my daughter's property safe. The remaining data/format I could get from this website.
Can we type the document here and send the same for my daughter to sign across the country and get it back here, and then get the signature of the new tenant? Is it valid? What address do we have to mention in the agreement?
Many thanks in advance for the kind suggestions/advice.

Hi,
Please consult a local advocate. However, I will give you one clue: Legally, both parties to any agreement must sign them in India. Embassies are considered part of the concerned countries. If you want to be perfect, then your advocate may suggest signing the document in the Indian Embassy at the US.
But for a flat lease, I don't think you should strain yourself so much.

For a lease deed, you should clarify if your daughter is out of India. In that case, it would be better for you to obtain a power of attorney to take care of the property.
If you require a lease deed for 11 months, there is no need for registration; you can simply get the lease deed notarized.
However, if you need the lease for more than 12 months, then you must register the lease deed.
