	+	===== Specifications + key rules =====
	+	* Place of birth = jurisdiction for revenue records — apply at correct tehsil/municipality.
	+	* Stamp duty must be paid before applying — sale deed must be registered.
	+	* Encumbrance certificate for last 13 years from sub-registrar — proves clear title.
