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:

Karnataka Khata
Tamil Nadu Patta
Andhra Pradesh Adangal / 1B
Telangana Dharani Records
Maharashtra 7/12 Extract
Punjab/Haryana Jamabandi
