How do I revoke Power of Attorney in India?

To revoke a Power of Attorney in India,  register the “REVOCATION OF POWER OF ATTORNEY”

Generally, Power of attorney (POA) is executed in two types, they are

1. Local power of attorney (it means that POA is executed and registered within India)
2. Foreign power of attorney (It means that POA is executed & attested in foreign country)

Let me explain the revocation procedure for both types of POA.
