 About CERSAI-

Acronym CERSAI is expanded as Central Registry of Securitisation Asset Reconstruction and Security Interest of India. CERSAI is formed as a company under section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013 by the Government of India.

CERSAI was created to screen and analyze fraudulent transactions & activities during equitable mortgage transactions. In simple terms, CERSAI was formed to avoid and prevent the activity of enjoying several loans from different banks using the same asset or property.

Primary shareholders of the CERSAI are the Central Government of India, National Housing Bank and public sector banks. However, the Central Government of India holds about 51% share in this company.

Before forming Central Registry of Securitisation Asset Reconstruction and Security Interest of India (CERSAI), the property’s encumbrance details were available only with the borrower and the lender. This was due to the disjointed system of registration practiced during that time.

This led to an individual borrowing different loans from various banks with the same asset or property. These loans were borrowed using counterfeit title deeds or through other dubious means of replicating the original deed. This resulted in genuine buyers being cheated as unpaid loans prevailed over the properties sold to them. It ultimately resulted in trouble for potential buyers as there wasn’t enough information about the property/asset’s prevailing liability.

 CERSAI Registration.

CERSAI registration is made mandatory for all banks & financial institutions for property-based loans. When registered in CERSAI, an individual or institution cannot mortgage a property unless the previous loan is paid off. This safeguards the interest of potential buyers & financial institutions/banks.

Initiate the registration with CERSAI on the official website of CERSAI https://www.cersai.org.in/CERSAI/home.prg

Fill in the registration e-form available in “Entity Registration” drop-down menu in the official web page.

Make sure you are ready with your Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) to access the CERSAI portal.

After filling up the e-form, take a print out & get it signed by the authorized signatory.

The printed forms and requisite documents stated in the forms are to be posted to the official address.

CERSAI Accessibility.

Banks, financial institutions or an individual can use the registration platform of CERSAI for a prescribed fee. Getting registered in CERSAI facilitates the lenders to access the information about an asset or property to validate whether any prior security interest has been sanctioned by other lenders ( banks/financial institutions etc.) previously. Generally, this process is followed before the sanction of a loan to a borrower.

This is highly beneficial for the property buyers as CERSAI helps them access all relevant details from the registry to check whether the property they intend to buy is free of any liability created by any other lender.
