Power of Attorney

What is a power of attorney?

A power of attorney is a legal document through which one or more persons allow one or more persons to represent them. It is also generally used to appoint an agent. The person executing the POA is known as the Executor or the Principal.

Powers of attorney are voluntary delegations of authority by the principal to the agent. The principal has not given up his or her own power to do these same functions, but rather has granted legal authority to the agent to perform various tasks on the principal’s behalf. In most states, powers of attorney can be and most often are unilateral contracts – that is, signed only by the principal, but accepted by the agent by the act of performance.

What are the types of power of attorney?

  • General Power of Attorney: The executor legally authorizes the Power of Attorney holder to perform any activity on their behalf, with respect to their movable and immovable property. 
    • The authorization of a General POA to a relative without any consideration is chargeable by Rs. 500/- as stamp duty. In case of the recipient being a third party and involvement of consideration, the stamp duty payable would be as per the market value of the property.
  • Special Power of Attorney: The executor legally authorizes someone else on their behalf to perform limited activities regarding the property. Stamp Duty of Rs. 100/- is payable for Special Power of Attorney.
    • If the Principal is in India at the time of executing the Power of Attorney, physical presence is required before the Sub Registrar while signing the POA for official authentication from the Sub-Registrar.
    • If the Principal is not in India at the time of executing the Power of Attorney, the Principal should sign the POA in the presence of any Competent Authority of the country where they are residing for an official authentication from the said Competent Authority.
