Bihar Bhumi Portal – How to Check Bihar Land Records

In summary

Bihar Bhumi is the Government of Bihar's online platform for accessing land revenue records and related services. Citizens can check Jamabandi details, apply for mutation and manage land-related requests without repeated visits to revenue offices.

• Land records: Search Jamabandi, Khata, Khesra and available Record of Rights (RoR) information.
• Mutation: Apply for Daakhil Kharij and monitor the application status.
• Land tax: Pay applicable Bhu-Lagan and download payment receipts.
• Maps: Access available Bhu Naksha maps and request land measurements through E-Maapi.
• Record correction: Use Parimarjan Plus for eligible Jamabandi discrepancies.
• 2026 update: A special Jamabandi correction and succession mutation campaign runs from 15 September to 31 October 2026.

Updated land records can support property due diligence. If you plan to purchase a home, explore Bajaj Finance Home Loan options after reviewing the relevant property documents.

Bihar Bhumi, also called Bhulekh Bihar, is the official land revenue services portal of the Department of Revenue and Land Reforms, Government of Bihar. The portal helps citizens access digitised Jamabandi records, apply for mutation, pay land revenue and use other available revenue services.

Three government systems serve different purposes:

These portals help users verify recorded information but do not independently establish legal ownership.

Bihar continued improving land-record accessibility, digital certification and correction procedures in 2026.

• Digitally signed records: Bhu Abhilekh provides applications for digitally signed certified copies of available revenue records. It is not a completely new land-record system.
• Jamabandi correction campaign: From 15 September to 31 October 2026, authorities are comparing digitised Jamabandi entries with original Register-II records.
• Correction scope: The campaign covers qualifying errors involving recorded names, Khata and Khesra details, land area and revenue entries.
• Land surveys: Special survey activities support updates to land boundaries and recorded information in covered areas.
• Abhiyan Basera: Eligible landless households can explore the state's land-allotment assistance through the prescribed process.
• Online services: Parimarjan Plus, E-Maapi, revenue maps and certified-copy applications support separate land-related tasks.

Under the special correction campaign, authorities may undertake necessary measurements without a separate fee for qualifying cases. This does not make every E-Maapi application free.

Khata and Khesra are commonly used Bihar land-record terms. Khata identifies a landholding account, while Khesra identifies a surveyed plot. Older records may also use Khatiyan, Register-II and related revenue terminology. These records serve different purposes and should not be treated as interchangeable.

The requirements depend on the application. Keep these records ready where relevant:

• Identity proof: Aadhaar or another accepted identity document.
• Mobile number: A working number for account verification and updates.
• Registered deed: Sale, gift, partition or other applicable transfer document.
• Revenue information: Khata, Khesra, Jamabandi number and earlier land records.
• Inheritance documents: Relevant family, succession or death records where applicable.
• Land tax receipts: Previous revenue payment details.
• Supporting evidence: Documents required for record correction, mutation or an LPC.

Check the specific service's document list before submitting an application.

Party-name searches relate to Bhumi Jankari's registration records, not the Bihar Bhumi Jamabandi search.

1. Open the Bhumi Jankari portal.
2. Select Searching by Party Name.
3. Choose the available registration period.
4. Enter the party name and select the required party role.
5. Submit the search and review matching documents.

The historical service includes pre-computerisation and post-computerisation search options.

Important: Bhumi Jankari states that its registered-document data is available only up to 15 December 2024. For records registered from 16 December 2024, use the relevant e-Nibandhan service.

You can search available registered documents by serial number through Bhumi Jankari.

1. Open the official Bhumi Jankari portal.
2. Select Searching by Serial No.
3. Choose the available registration period.
4. Enter the serial number and other requested registration details.
5. Submit the search and verify the matching instrument.

Keep the relevant registration year and office details ready. For documents outside Bhumi Jankari's available historical coverage, check the e-Nibandhan certified-copy facility.

You can access available Bihar land accounts using the View Your Account service.

1. Open the Bihar Bhumi portal.
2. Select View Your Account or the equivalent account-search service.
3. Choose the district, Anchal and relevant locality.
4. Enter the available Khata, plot or account information.
5. Review the matching land-record details.
6. Save or print the result if the facility permits.

Compare the recorded name, land area and plot information with the underlying documents. A revenue account entry is useful for verification but is not conclusive proof of property title.

The Bhu Naksha service provides access to available digitised plot maps.

1. Open Bihar Bhumi and select the official Bhu Naksha service.
2. Choose the district, circle and Mauza.
3. Select the relevant map sheet or plot.
4. Locate the Khesra number.
5. Review the displayed boundaries and neighbouring plots.
6. Download or print the map where supported.

Digital maps are helpful for locating plots but do not replace an authorised field survey when boundaries are disputed.

E-Maapi is a separate service for requesting official measurements.

Daakhil Kharij, or mutation, updates the relevant revenue records after a qualifying transfer or inheritance.

1. Open the official Bihar Bhumi mutation service.
2. Register or log in using the applicable process.
3. Select the online mutation application.
4. Enter the applicant, previous holder and land details.
5. Upload the registered deed or other required evidence.
6. Review and submit the application.
7. Save the application or case number.
8. Track the case and download the available order or correction slip after disposal.

Mutation is a revenue-record process. It does not independently create ownership or cure defects in a registered deed.  Where the applicable online mutation rules apply, the prescribed disposal periods are 35 working days without objections and 75 working days with objections.

The Bihar Bhumi Bhu-Lagan service allows eligible landholders to check revenue demand and make online payments.

1. Open Bihar Bhumi.
2. Select Online Bhu-Lagan.
3. Enter the required district, Anchal, Mauza and land-account details.
4. Find the relevant Jamabandi or revenue account.
5. Verify the outstanding amount and payment information.
6. Complete payment through the supported method.
7. Download the receipt.

Keep the payment reference and receipt for future record verification. Land revenue payments do not independently establish ownership. They are evidence of payments recorded against the relevant revenue account.

If payment fails or the receipt is not generated, verify the transaction before paying again.

1. Open the official online Bhu-Lagan service.
2. Choose the available failed-transaction or payment-status facility.
3. Enter the transaction reference or details requested.
4. Review the displayed payment status.
5. Download the receipt if the successful transaction becomes available.

If your bank shows a debit but the portal does not confirm payment, retain the bank reference and contact the relevant service support. Avoid making duplicate payments until the original transaction has been checked.

Digital Seva Connect provides authentication for authorised Common Service Centre (CSC) users.

Where a Bihar land-service page offers this facility:

1. Open the relevant government service page.
2. Select Login with Digital Seva Connect, if available.
3. Follow the redirection to the official Digital Seva Connect login.
4. Enter the authorised CSC credentials and required verification details.
5. Sign in to the service permitted for that account.

This is not a universal citizen login. Ordinary applicants should use the relevant Bihar Bhumi citizen registration or application service instead.

An LPC and registered transaction information can support property verification, but they serve different purposes.

Applying for a Land Possession Certificate

An LPC records possession-related information recognised by the issuing revenue authority. It is not conclusive evidence of ownership.

1. Visit the Bihar Revenue Department service directory.
2. Select Online LPC.
3. Log in or register through the prescribed service.
4. Enter the applicant and landholding details.
5. Upload the documents requested.
6. Submit the application and track its status.

Use the dedicated LPC service, not Parimarjan Plus, which is intended for eligible record corrections.

Checking encumbrance information

Registered-document searches can help identify transactions affecting a property. Use Bhumi Jankari or the applicable e-Nibandhan facility to review available registered instruments.

For formally recorded land-encumbrance information, consult the revenue department's Register of Land Encumbrances service where applicable. A registration search result is not automatically an officially issued Encumbrance Certificate (EC).

The exact encumbrance records or certificates needed depend on the property and the requesting authority.

Parimarjan Plus supports applications to correct eligible errors in digitised Jamabandi records. Common issues include incorrect names, missing Khata or Khesra details, land-area discrepancies and revenue-entry errors.

2. Select the applicable correction facility.
3. Complete the required registration or verification.
4. Enter the Jamabandi and land details.
5. Describe the error and upload supporting evidence.
6. Submit the request and retain the reference.
7. Track the correction application.

The Circle Officer examines the request under the applicable procedure.

The special 2026 correction campaign may also involve action initiated by authorities using original records, without individual applications for every qualifying discrepancy.

An interested person may object to a mutation case through the prescribed Bihar revenue process.

1. Open the official Bihar Bhumi portal.
2. Select File Objection Against Mutation Case.
3. Complete the applicable citizen login.
4. Enter the mutation case and property details.
5. Explain the objection and provide supporting evidence.
6. Submit the objection within the applicable period.
7. Track the case and attend any required hearing.

Under the amended online mutation procedure, the prescribed maximum is 75 working days for cases involving objections, subject to the applicable rules and circumstances.

Bihar Bhumi helps citizens access land-related information and submit eligible requests digitally.

• Khata and Khesra searches: Identify relevant land accounts and plots.
• Online mutation: Apply for and track Daakhil Kharij cases.
• Land revenue payment: Check Bhu-Lagan demand and retain receipts.
• Digital maps: Examine available plot maps and boundaries.
• Record correction: Request eligible updates through Parimarjan Plus.
• Application tracking: Monitor supported revenue cases and service requests.

The portal improves access but cannot independently resolve every land dispute.

Accurate property documentation can support a lender's legal and technical assessment before approving a Home Loan.

These documents are not all mandatory for every Bajaj Finance Home Loan application. Requirements depend on property type, location, ownership history and lender verification.

For example, Ravi, a 35-year-old salaried applicant from Patna earning Rs. 85,000 monthly, plans to purchase a residential property.

Before applying, he compares the seller's registered deed with available revenue and map records. He then arranges the other documents requested during the lender's assessment.

Bajaj Finance offers Home Loans with the following approved features:

You can review Home Loan interest rates and check your Home Loan eligibility before applying. Approval remains subject to applicant eligibility, property assessment and applicable lending conditions.
