The power of attorney (POA) execution is quite different for NRIs and Indian residents.

Let me start with NRIs resident:

NRIs don’t have to be present physically for registration of property for buying, selling, or managing in India.

NRIs can issue true and lawful power of attorney in favor of his/her family member, relative, friend, colleague, or agent. we should make sure that attorney holder is truthful and reliable to you.

Below is the steps to execute power of attorney

Step 1: Prepare the draft in word format

Step 2: Print draft on A4 size paper

Step 3: NRI should sign POA in front of Indian Consulate Officer or notary public in your country. Should sign at bottom of all pages and witness has to sign at witness section.

Step 4: Courier the POA to your true and lawful attorney to India.

Step 5: Attorney holder in India should adjudicate the POA in District Registrar office, in the judication of where the property located.

Please be noted, as a NRI, your presence is not at all mandatory to register the property but attestation from Indian consulate at your country is very much mandatory.
