What an index copy proves
An index copy — everyone calls it Index-2 — is the certified summary the Sub-Registrar keeps of every registered document: sale deed, gift deed, mortgage, release, lease. It records that a registration actually happened, on what date, between which parties, over which property, and for what consideration. It does not reproduce the full deed; it is the official one-page proof that the deed exists and what its essentials were.
As an index copy agent in Vadodara, we pull the Index-2 from the Sub-Registrar at Kuber Bhavan — an index copy for a home loan, an index copy for property verification before buying, or a certified copy when the original deed is lost.
ઇન્ડેક્સ કોપી (ઇન્ડેક્સ-૨) એ સબ-રજિસ્ટ્રાર કચેરીમાં નોંધાયેલા દસ્તાવેજનો સત્તાવાર સારાંશ છે. તેમાં દસ્તાવેજની તારીખ, પક્ષકારો, મિલકત અને રકમ નોંધાયેલી હોય છે. હોમ લોન વખતે બેંક આ માંગે છે, અને ખરીદનાર જૂના વેચાણની ખાતરી કરવા માટે માંગે છે.
Index copy or full certified deed?
They are different things and people often ask for the wrong one. The index copy is the one-page summary; the certified deed copy is the entire registered document, word for word.
| Feature | Index copy (Index-2) | Certified deed copy (સર્ટિફાઇડ દસ્તાવેજ) |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | One-page summary of the registration | Full text of the entire deed |
| Shows | Parties, date, property, consideration | Every clause and condition |
| Usual use | Loans, quick verification, title trace | Disputes, exact terms, lost original |
| Turnaround | Faster | Longer |
Not sure which you need? Tell us why you need it and we will get the right one — often the index copy is enough and the cheaper route.
