    Understanding Power of Attorney in India

    A Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal document authorizing one person to act on behalf of another in legal and financial matters.

    Types of Power of Attorney

    General POA grants broad authority for multiple acts. Specific POA limits authority to a specific purpose or period. Irrevocable POA cannot be revoked without the agent consent.

    Registration Requirements

    While not mandatory for all POAs, registration is recommended for property-related matters. Registered POAs require stamp paper, notarization, and registration with the sub-registrar.
