About this template

What is this template?

This document is a formal deed of conveyance for real estate or assets owned by a company in liquidation. It is not a standard commercial sale agreement because the seller is a court-appointed official rather than the company directors, and it requires specific references to High Court sanction orders. It specifically limits the personal liability of the signatory for title defects.

When should you use it?

Use this document when a High Court in India has sanctioned the sale of specific properties described in a schedule following a winding-up order. Use a standard Sale Deed instead if the company is not in liquidation and the directors are still authorized to sign on its behalf.
