Crowd continued till late night
There was a continuous rush at the registrar office till late night. People waited for hours to complete their documentation process.
Number declining since the beginning of the year
Compared to last year, registrations have decreased since the beginning of this year. One reason is stricter government rules, new projects, and the impact of construction permission processes.
From January to March 2025, there was a noticeable decline in registrations. In the first three months of 2026, the number of registered documents dropped by 30.25% compared to last year.
Despite this, revenue has increased by 7.41% compared to last year.
