🛡️ Fraud Prevention SOP 5-Step Legal Due Diligence Protocol

Faisal Hills (Taxila / Islamabad) File Verification & Safe Transfer Checklist

Never exchange cash in the open market without completing this mandatory 5-step verification protocol. Every genuine Zedem International (Chaudhry Abdul Majeed) file must pass biometric database clearance before transfer.

Anti-Counterfeit Check

Physical Security Paper & Holographic Seal

📜

✓ Verify the high-grade parchment paper texture with embedded Zedem watermarks visible under transmitted backlight.
✓ Inspect the metallic embossed Zedem International seal and silver holographic anti-tamper security strip on the file cover.
✓ Ensure the serial file registration number is crisp, mechanically stamped, and shows no chemical erasure or manual overwriting.

⚠️ Fraud Hazard: Unverified photocopies or altered registration serials cannot be transferred at Zedem registry desks.

Zedem Central Database Check

Head Office Computerized Ledger Verification

🏢

✓ Visit the official Zedem International Head Office (F-8 Markaz / G-11 Project Center, Islamabad) Verification Counter.
✓ Submit the file registration number for computerized database lookup against the original record master ledger.
✓ Confirm the file status is 'Clean & Active' — verifying it is not blocked, blacklisted, pledged as bank collateral, or entangled in legal disputes.

⚠️ Fraud Hazard: Files with undisclosed litigation or developer disputes cannot obtain NDC approval for final transfer.

Financial Due Diligence

Payment Receipts & NDC Clearance Audit

🧾

✓ Cross-check all installment receipts against bank-stamped deposit slips (e.g., Askari Bank, HBL, Bank of Punjab designated accounts).
✓ Verify the exact total amount paid to date matches the official Zedem Statement of Account (SOA).
✓ Ensure an official No Demand Certificate (NDC) is initiated to confirm zero outstanding late-payment surcharges or reinstatement penalties.

⚠️ Fraud Hazard: Unpaid surcharges or bounced deposit slips become the legal liability of the new buyer if not audited prior to payment.

Section 236K & 236W Legal Filing

FBR Taxation & Government Stamp Duty Compliance

⚖️

✓ Ascertain Active Taxpayer List (ATL) status of both Buyer and Seller to calculate exact FBR withholding tax brackets.
✓ Verify advance tax payment under FBR Section 236K (for Purchaser) and Section 236C (for Seller/Transferor).
✓ Confirm official Computerized Payment Receipts (CPR) and district stamp duty challans are attached with the transfer application.

⚠️ Fraud Hazard: Non-filer penalty rates can substantially inflate transfer overheads by 3% to 7% of documented value.

Final Title Conveyance

Biometric Transfer & Record Attestation

🔏

✓ Both Transferor (Seller) and Transferee (Buyer) must present original CNIC/NICOP for in-person biometric thumbprint capture at Zedem Transfer Desk.
✓ For Overseas Pakistanis unable to travel, execute an Embassy-attested Special Power of Attorney (POA) endorsed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).
✓ Receive the official Transfer Intimation Letter and newly issued Membership Certificate issued in the buyer's name.

⚠️ Fraud Hazard: Handing over payment outside the official Zedem transfer counter exposes buyers to third-party impersonation fraud.
