In summary
A Khasra number identifies a specific plot of land in village revenue records. It helps you find the land and check related information, but it does not independently prove legal ownership.
- A Khasra number is used to identify land parcels in several Indian states.
- You can find it in relevant land documents or through your state's land records portal.
- A Khasra number identifies a plot, while Khata and Khatauni refer to related landholding records.
- The same number may appear in different villages, so you must also check the village and district.
- If the number differs across property documents, ask the relevant revenue authority to clarify the difference.
- Lenders may use Khasra details when verifying certain properties for a Home Loan.
Before buying land, check the Khasra number against available revenue records and registered ownership documents. Resolve significant differences before making a payment.
What is a Khasra number?
A Khasra number is a unique number assigned to an individual land parcel within a revenue village. It helps government revenue departments identify land and maintain records relating to the parcel.
The number is commonly used in several northern and central Indian states, including Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan.
For example, a land record may show Khasra number 125 for a plot in a particular village. This number helps identify that plot in the village's land records.
A Khasra number is not the same as an ownership certificate. It identifies the land, but ownership must be checked through the relevant revenue records, registered deeds and other applicable documents.
The number may also change when a parcel is divided or renumbered through an official process.
How is a Khasra number assigned to land?
A Khasra number is recorded through the state's land survey and revenue-record system. Revenue officials maintain the parcel details according to the applicable state procedures.
In some northern states, a village map known as a Shajra or Sharja shows individual land parcels and their recorded numbers. Revenue officials such as the Patwari or Lekhpal may help maintain the related records, depending on the state.
A buyer can use the village map to help identify a parcel, but should also compare the number with the relevant revenue record and registered documents.
For example, if Khasra 54 is officially divided into three parcels, the updated records might identify them as 54/1, 54/2 and 54/3. The actual numbering depends on the state's subdivision procedure.
Selling or gifting an entire parcel does not, by itself, mean that its Khasra number changes.
How is Khasra different from Khata and Khatauni?
A Khasra number identifies a land parcel, while Khata and Khatauni help organise information about landholders and their holdings.
| Term | Meaning | Why it matters |
| Khasra | Number identifying a land parcel | Helps locate a specific plot |
| Khesra | A term used for parcel identification in Bihar's land records | Helps locate the relevant parcel in Bihar |
| Khata | Land revenue account linked to recorded holdings | Helps identify parcels recorded under an account |
| Khatauni | Record of landholdings and recorded holders | Helps check recorded landholder details |
| Khewat | Revenue account relating to landholders and their interests, where applicable | Helps identify recorded shares in certain states |
| Jamabandi | Land revenue record containing recorded holdings and related details | Helps check landholder, parcel and area information |
These terms are not used in exactly the same way across India. Check the definitions and records followed by the state where your land is located.
For example, Uttar Pradesh uses Khasra or Gata details in its land-record system. Other states may organise the same type of land information differently.

Is Khasra the same as a survey number?
A Khasra number and a survey number serve a similar purpose: both help identify a particular land parcel.
The terminology depends on the state's land-record system. Khasra is commonly used in northern and central India, while survey numbers are widely used in other regions.
Maharashtra also uses Gat numbers and City Survey numbers in relevant records. Other states may use different terms for plot identification.
Although these identifiers perform similar functions, their numbering systems are not interchangeable. Always use the identifier shown in the relevant state's official land records.
In some eastern states, land records may use terms such as Dag number. Urban property records may also include municipal property numbers or City Survey numbers. These numbers serve different administrative purposes and should not automatically be treated as equivalent.
Why is a Khasra number important?
A Khasra number helps you identify the correct plot before checking its records, boundaries or transaction documents.
| Use | How it helps |
| Land identification | Helps locate a specific parcel in village revenue records |
| Record verification | Helps match a plot with relevant landholder and area details |
| Property transactions | Helps buyers compare the parcel number across available documents |
| Land division | Helps identify parcels created through subdivision, where records have been updated |
| Property financing | May support a lender's legal and property-document checks |
| Revenue administration | Helps authorities maintain parcel-specific land records and related entries |
For a property buyer, the main benefit is avoiding confusion between two plots in the same area. However, the Khasra number alone cannot confirm ownership, transferability or whether the land is free from disputes.
What details can you check using a Khasra number?
A Khasra number helps you find the land parcel in the relevant government records. The information available depends on the state, the type of record and the data published online.
| Information | What you may find |
| Plot identification | Khasra number and village details |
| Land area | Recorded area and measurement unit |
| Landholder information | Names or shares recorded in the relevant revenue record |
| Land classification | Agricultural or other recorded land category, where available |
| Map details | Plot position and mapped boundaries, where digital maps are available |
| Record changes | Mutation or subdivision details, where supported |
| Agricultural information | Crop, irrigation or other cultivation details, where the applicable record contains them |
For example, a customer checking land in Rajasthan may use Apna Khata to view available revenue records and Bhu Naksha to examine the mapped parcel.
Not every detail will appear in the same document. Soil quality, agricultural use, ownership history and boundary measurements should not be presented as universally available from a Khasra number search.
There is no standard 50-year ownership history available through every Khasra search. Historical records, if required, must be checked through the relevant state service or revenue authority.
How do I find a Khasra number?
You can usually find a Khasra number in the relevant property documents or through your state's land records service.
- Check the registered sale deed or another applicable land document for the parcel description.
- Look for the village, survey details, recorded area and Khasra number in the property description.
- If the number is missing, review an earlier land record or use the available search options on the state's official portal.
- Check that the number refers to the correct village and land parcel.
- Keep a copy of the matching record for reference.
Search options differ by state. Some portals allow searches using a landholder's name, Khata number or Khasra number. Others may require additional information.
You can also refer to the MP Khasra records and Bhu Naksha Rajasthan guides for more information.
Where can you find your Khasra number if you do not know it?
If you do not know your Khasra number, start with the property documents rather than guessing the number online.
You can try the following methods:
- Check the sale deed: Look for the land description, village details and parcel identifier.
- Search the state portal: Use a landholder's name or Khata number if that search option is available.
- Check an earlier land record: A previous Jamabandi or Khatauni may help identify the parcel.
- Contact the revenue office: Ask the relevant Patwari, Lekhpal or Tehsil office for help locating the record.
For example, if you know the village and recorded landholder's name but not the Khasra number, an available name-based search may help you locate the correct parcel.
Confirm the number against the property's documents before relying on the search result.
How can you check a Khasra number online?
You can check a Khasra number through your state's official land records portal. The exact process depends on where the property is located.
Follow these steps:
- Open your state's official land records website.
- Choose the district, tehsil and village, where applicable.
- Select the available Khasra, plot or landholder search option.
- Enter the required details and open the matching record.
Check the parcel number, recorded area and other available information.
If you need detailed state-specific instructions, refer to the how to check Khasra number guide.

The portals may use different record names, search fields and verification procedures. Some government websites require a browser session, captcha or other steps before displaying records.
If a website does not open or a land record is unavailable, check the relevant state Revenue Department's website or contact the local revenue office.
How can you verify land details using a Khasra number?
A Khasra number helps you identify the correct plot. To verify a property before buying, compare the number and recorded area with the seller's documents and relevant land records.
You should also check the plot's mapped location, where a government land-map service is available. If any important details differ, seek clarification from the relevant revenue authority.
The following example shows why this matters.
A worked example: one wrong digit
Consider Ramesh, a 45-year-old trader in Bhopal with a household income of Rs. 95,000 a month and a CIBIL Score of 746. He plans to purchase land identified as Khasra 412/1 in the seller's documents.
| Document or check | Example finding |
| Sale deed | Khasra 412/1, area 0.050 hectare |
| Online land record for 412/1 | A different recorded landholder appears |
| Search using seller's name | Khasra 421/1 appears |
| Possible problem | The numbers may have been entered incorrectly |
The two parcel numbers are different. Ramesh should not assume this is only a typing error.
Before paying, he should ask the seller to clarify the discrepancy and have the relevant documents and records checked. A legal professional or revenue authority may need to confirm which parcel is involved and whether any correction is required.
This example is illustrative. It shows why checking a Khasra number is useful, not that an online name search conclusively establishes ownership.
Ramesh should also compare the parcel shown on the land map with the property he intends to buy. A matching number is useful, but it does not replace registered deed verification or checks for applicable restrictions.
What if your Khasra details are incorrect?
If the Khasra number, land area or recorded landholder details do not match your documents, first check whether you have selected the correct village and parcel.
A mismatch may occur because of an entry error, subdivision, an old record or a change that has not been updated.
Follow these steps:
- Check the district, tehsil, village and Khasra number again.
- Compare the details with the registered deed and latest available revenue record.
- Look for any subdivision or mutation details that may explain the change.
- Contact the relevant revenue authority if the difference remains unresolved.
- Follow the applicable correction or demarcation process where required.
Do not assume that a mismatch automatically means fraud, encroachment or loss of ownership. The cause must be established through the appropriate checks.
If you are buying the property, resolve significant differences before making a payment or completing the transaction.
What if the recorded landholder's name does not match?
A name mismatch may result from a spelling difference, an old record or a change that has not yet been updated. It does not automatically mean that the seller lacks ownership.
Compare the name across the registered deed, identity documents and latest available revenue record. If a correction is required, contact the relevant revenue authority and ask which supporting documents and application process apply.
Do not assume that an affidavit alone will resolve every name mismatch.
Can a Khasra number change when land is divided?
Yes, a Khasra number may change when a land parcel is divided, combined or renumbered through an official land-record process.
For example, a parcel recorded as Khasra 45 may later have separate identifiers such as 45/1 and 45/2. The format depends on the state's records and subdivision procedure.
If your sale deed refers to an older number, check whether the current record contains a subdivision or mutation entry. Do not assume that the original and new numbers refer to the same land without verification.
A gift or sale that changes the recorded landholder does not necessarily change the parcel number. Renumbering generally depends on an applicable subdivision, consolidation or other official record-update process.
How does a Khasra number relate to home loan verification?
A Khasra number can help identify the correct land parcel during a lender's property-document checks. However, it does not independently prove ownership or establish that the land is suitable for residential financing.
Depending on the property and transaction, Bajaj Finance may review the following documents:
- Registered ownership documents
- Khasra or survey number details, where applicable
- Relevant revenue records
- Land-use permissions, where required
Approved building plans and other applicable property documents
For example, a customer constructing a house on an eligible plot may need to clarify any difference between the sale deed and the land records before the lender can complete its property checks.
The lender may also assess the property's legal status, valuation and suitability. Matching parcel numbers alone do not guarantee approval or faster disbursal.
How can Bajaj Finance Home Loan help?
Once you have reviewed the relevant land and ownership records, you can explore financing for an eligible residential property.

Frequently Asked Questions
Khasra number basics
Finding and checking records
Ownership and home loan verification
What is a Khasra number and why is it assigned?
A Khasra number is an identification number used to identify a particular land parcel within a revenue village. It helps government authorities maintain and retrieve the records linked to that plot. The related information may include area, land classification and recorded landholder details, depending on the state. When checking a property, use the Khasra number together with the village details. The number alone does not establish legal ownership.
What is the difference between Khasra and Khata?
A Khasra number identifies a specific land parcel, while a Khata number refers to a land revenue account linked to one or more recorded holdings. The exact use of these terms can differ by state. For example, a single Khata may include several Khasra numbers. If you are buying land, compare the account and parcel details with the seller's registered documents. Neither number independently proves legal ownership.
Can one Khasra number be divided into multiple parts?
Yes, a parcel recorded under one Khasra number may be divided through an applicable land subdivision process. The updated records may give each new parcel a separate number or sub-number. For example, Khasra 123 might become 123/1 and 123/2. The numbering depends on the state's procedures. Check the subdivision and mutation records before relying on an old parcel number, especially when buying part of a larger plot.
Can I check my Khasra number without visiting a government office?
Yes, many states provide official websites where you can view available land records without first visiting a government office. Select the district, tehsil and village, then use the search options supported by that portal. Some services accept a Khasra number, Khata number or recorded landholder's name. If a record is unavailable online, or you need a certified copy for an official purpose, contact the relevant revenue authority.
What information is recorded under a Khasra number?
A Khasra number helps you locate a land parcel and find related information in government revenue records. Depending on the state, these records may show the parcel's area, classification, cultivation details or recorded landholder information. Not every detail appears in every record. The number alone does not provide a complete ownership history, prove legal title or confirm that the boundaries match the actual land on the ground.
Does an urban property have a Khasra number?
Some urban properties may still have a Khasra number in older revenue records or registered deeds, particularly where the land was previously classified as rural. Other properties use survey numbers, City Survey numbers, municipal identifiers or approved plot numbers. The correct identifier depends on the location and applicable records. Check both current and older property documents where necessary, especially if the number has changed following an official survey or subdivision.
Does a Khasra number prove land ownership?
No, a Khasra number identifies a land parcel but does not independently prove who legally owns it. It helps you locate the land and check related revenue records. Before purchasing a property, compare the Khasra details with registered ownership documents and other applicable records. If the seller's name, land area or parcel number differs, seek clarification before completing the transaction. A matching Khasra number alone is not proof that the property is free from disputes.
Why is a Khasra number used during property registration?
A Khasra number may help identify the exact parcel being transferred when the property falls under a land-record system that uses this identifier. It can appear in the property description of a registered deed. However, registration requirements vary by state and property type. Buyers should check that the parcel description matches the relevant revenue records and land documents. The presence of a Khasra number does not independently establish valid ownership or prevent fraudulent transactions.
Is a Khasra number required for a Home Loan?
Bajaj Finance may request a Khasra number or another applicable land identifier when verifying certain properties for a Home Loan. The requirement depends on the property, its location and the documents used in that state's land-record system. The number helps identify the parcel, but other checks remain necessary. Bajaj Finance may also assess ownership documents, approved plans, income and property suitability. Providing a Khasra number does not guarantee loan approval.
