Encroachment occurs when a individual that is not the property owner intrudes on or interferes with the property, e.g. trespassing by way of building something that lays partially on the adjoining property or even by planting a tree with branches that hang over onto the adjoining property. An encroachment creates an encumbrance on both properties until the issue is resolved.

Adverse possession is a term used in the Indian legal system to describe a situation wherein an individual or group of individuals acquire a right to ownership of an immovable property by virtue of continuous use of it. The Limitation Act of 1963, functions on the principle that limitation extinguishes the remedy, but not the right, meaning that in the case of an adverse possession the original owner may continue to have the title over the property but he loses the right to claim such a right in a court of law.

An encumbrance is a claim made against a property by someone other than the current title holder. The term encumbrance covers a wide variety of financial and non-financial claims that may or may not affect the value of the property. It is important, from a buyer's perspective, to be aware of any encumbrances on a property, as these will often transfer to them along with the ownership of the property.

Under the present GST regime, landlords are not liable to pay GST against their real estate rental income, provided the premises is let out for residential purposes. Rent arising out of a residential property being used for business is however applicable for GST as services are being supplied. In addition, if the rental proceeds of a residential property exceed 20 lac rupees per annum, GST is applicable at the rate of 18%.

In the case of plotted developments, the developer, landowner, or authority undertaking the project must pay the GST charges on the sale of the developed land within the project. The GST is to be charged on super built-up basis and not the actual measure of the developed plot. Also, any lease, tenancy or right to occupy created for a plot of land is considered to be a provision of services and therefore liable for GST.
