Blockchain Land Titles to Boost Tourism Realty Transparency
Port Blair | May 2025:
In a landmark move, the Andaman & Nicobar Administration has launched a blockchain-based digital land registry system in Port Blair, aiming to streamline property transactions and improve investor confidence, particularly in tourism-related plots.

This initiative enables tamper-proof land records, faster approvals, and transparent ownership history, which is expected to significantly benefit locals and small investors looking to buy into hospitality or homestay projects across the islands. Officials stated that the system will also reduce land disputes and fraud in high-demand tourism zones such as Havelock, Neil, and Campbell Bay.

Industry experts view this as a major milestone in bringing modern PropTech governance to the Andaman Islands, aligning with India’s larger push towards Digital India and green infrastructure transparency.
