Supporting instrument
Rule 13(2B) requires a copy of the registered conveyance, gift deed or other instrument by which the property was transferred to or from the trust.
Sub-Registrar
After the Deputy or Assistant Charity Commissioner accepts the change, Section 22(4) requires a copy of the memorandum to be sent to the Sub-Registrar, so the trust’s interest appears in the property records. Sale, exchange, gift, or a lease beyond the periods in Section 36, still needs the previous sanction of the Charity Commissioner.
