Two brothers, Arun and Barun, jointly own a plot and agree to divide it so that each holds a separate half. Which instrument should be drafted to record this arrangement?

A partition deed is the correct instrument. It records the division of jointly held property among co-owners so that each holds a defined separate share. A sale deed, mortgage deed or trust deed would create a different legal relationship.
