Across India, municipal property records serve as proof that a property is recognized by local authorities for taxation and civic services. While names like Khata, Patta, Jamabandi, or ROR vary by state, the purpose remains the same.

What Are Property Records?

  • Official municipal or revenue records that link a property to its rightful owner

  • Used for property tax assessment, utility connections, and building approvals

  • Required for mutation, sale, loan approvals, and legal verification

Common Terms Across India:

State/Region Local Term Used
Karnataka Khata
Tamil Nadu Patta
Andhra Pradesh Adangal / 1B
Telangana Dharani Records
Maharashtra 7/12 Extract
Punjab/Haryana Jamabandi
Uttar Pradesh Khasra-Khatauni
West Bengal ROR (Record of Rights)
 

Why It Matters:

  • Confirms legal recognition of the property

  • Needed for property tax payments and utility services

  • Essential for mutation and resale

  • Without it, the property may be considered unauthorized
