A Lien Notice alerts everyone that someone claims a legal right over property until a debt is paid. When contractors or suppliers haven't received payment for their work on a construction project in India, they can file this notice to protect their financial interests under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882.

Filing a Lien Notice creates a public record and gives the claimant priority over other creditors. It's especially common in real estate and construction, where subcontractors use it to secure payment for materials or services. The notice remains active until the debt is settled or the claim is resolved through legal channels.

File a Lien Notice when someone owes you money for work or materials you've provided, especially in construction projects. For example, if you're a contractor who supplied building materials worth ₹5 lakhs and haven't received payment after 30 days, a Lien Notice protects your right to get paid.

Time matters - in India, you need to file within 120 days of completing the work or delivering materials. The notice becomes crucial when dealing with payment delays, disputes over work quality, or if the property owner faces financial troubles. It's particularly valuable for subcontractors and suppliers who don't have direct contracts with the property owner.

A Lien Notice differs significantly from a Lien Waiver in both purpose and timing. While both documents relate to construction payments, they serve opposite functions in the payment process.

• Purpose: A Lien Notice claims rights to payment and creates a security interest in property, while a Lien Waiver surrenders these rights once payment is received
• Timing of Use: Lien Notices are filed when payment is overdue, whereas Lien Waivers are signed after receiving payment
• Legal Effect: A Lien Notice creates an encumbrance on property title; a Lien Waiver removes it
• Party Initiative: Contractors file Lien Notices to protect their interests, while property owners typically request Lien Waivers
• Duration: Lien Notices remain active until payment or resolution, but Lien Waivers permanently terminate rights once executed
