What is a relinquishment deed?
Relinquishment deed is a legal document or an instrument according to which individual releases or gives up his rights of an heir in an ancestral property for another legal heir or co-owner of the property. When a person dies intestate, his property is divided among his legal heirs. In the case where an heir to the inherited property wants to give up his rights to another heir of the property i.e., son, mother-daughter, brother etc, a Relinquishment Deed may be formed.

- The deed is irrevocable. It can only be cancelled if it is made without free consent and under coercion, mistake or fraud.
- A Relinquishment Deed must be in writing and should be registered.

Hi! Which document is required to be drafted to remove the name of the co-owner (younger brother) for a freehold registered apartment. This is not an inherited property (this property has been purchased by me and had to add brother name in order to get loan, however I have paid back the loan now). Please advise.
Your brother needs to gift his share, if already list in the original registration document. Otherwise it woud be 50% of the property vaue (Original Cost+Registration+Cost of improvement e.g. construction etc.). Or circle value, whichever is higher.
The gift is considered as transfer and therefore stamp duty is applicable for the transfer value his share in the value of property. Since is he is your brother, gift tax may not be applicable. Otherwise 30% of value of his share has to be paid as gift tax.
Another option (more popular) is that he writes an irrevocable will for his share in the property in favour of you and your legal heirs. And get the will registered. Since this method has been misused to avoid paying registration charges, understand that some restriction/taxes may be applicable in your state.
Suggest that you may double check the appicability of taxes and registration charges with a practicing CA for both the cases.
