Category: Possession
Legal possession on paper without physical control of the property.
Symbolic possession is taken when the bank issues the SARFAESI Section 13(4) notice but the borrower or tenants still occupy the property. Buyers of symbolic-possession lots must obtain physical possession separately, typically via DM order under Section 14.
