Industrial property due diligence in Gurgaon protects tenants from leasing a building that cannot legally be used for their activity, has hidden defects or carries disputes. Before signing a lease or paying a deposit, review documents and inspect the site with legal and technical advisers. We coordinate these checks but do not certify legal status; independent legal review is essential.

Document checks
| Document | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Title documents | Confirm the landlord owns or controls the property |
| Allotment and transfer papers | For planned estates such as IMT Manesar |
| Land-use approval or CLU | Confirms industrial or warehousing use |
| Building plan approval | Confirms the structure is approved |
| Occupation or completion certificate | Confirms the building can be occupied |
| Fire safety certificate | Confirms fire systems meet requirements |
| Power sanction | Confirms sanctioned load |
| Encumbrance records | Checks mortgages and charges |
| Dues | Property tax, authority dues, utilities |
