You can draft a Power of Attorney (POA) for a vehicle transaction (sale, transfer, or registration) in India by following a few steps. Here’s how to do it correctly:
At the top of the POA, write your full name (the vehicle owner — “Principal”), age, Aadhaar number (or other identity number), and full address.
Then write the full name, age, identity number, and address of the person you are authorising (the “Agent” or “Attorney-in-fact”).
Clearly mention the make or model of the vehicle, registration number, chassis number, engine number, or any other unique identifiers.
List exactly what the agent can do. For example, to sell the vehicle, negotiate the sale price, sign the sale agreement, submit the transfer documents, receive payment, appear before the Regional Transport Office (RTO), and handle registration or transfer formalities.
If you wish, you can limit the POA’s scope, e.g., only for sale, or only for transfer. Avoid ambiguous or overly broad wording.
Mention the date and city (or town) where you sign the POA. This establishes when and where the agreement came into force.
The POA must be signed by the Principal (owner) and accepted by the Agent. Include signatures of at least two independent witnesses, along with their full names and addresses. Witnesses should not be beneficiaries in the transaction.
It is strongly recommended that the POA be executed on proper stamp paper and notarised by a notary public to make it legally valid.
If relevant (depending on state laws), pay stamp duty or registration fees as per local rules.
Submit it. Give a copy of the POA to the agent, and keep a copy with you for your record.
