These two terms describe different things about the same land:

Khasra: The unique identification number for an individual plot of land within a village. Every piece of agricultural land in Uttarakhand has a Khasra number (also called Gata Sankhya). This is what identifies the specific parcel — its area, land use type, and location within the village.

Khatauni: The Record of Rights document that groups all Khasra plots owned by one Khatadhar (registered owner) within a village. It is Uttarakhand's equivalent of the Jamabandi or RoR used in other north Indian states.

Together, Khasra and Khatauni give you the complete picture: Khasra tells you about the specific plot, Khatauni tells you who owns it and what their rights are.

Uttarakhand's traditional land area measurement uses nali (one nali ≈ 200 sq metres) alongside decimals and bighas. When verifying land, always cross-check the nali measurement against the decimal equivalent stated in sale deeds to confirm consistency.

Use the Khatauni and Bhu Naksha together — Khatauni confirms who owns the land, Bhu Naksha confirms where it is and what shape it is.

The portal provides access to several types of land-related records:

• Public ROR (Khatauni): The main Record of Rights for individual plots and Khatadhar
• Mutation status (Dakhil Kharij): Whether a pending mutation has been completed after sale or inheritance
• Encumbrance certificate: Available separately — shows mortgages or legal charges on the property
• Bhu Naksha: Cadastral plot map (at bhunaksha.uk.gov.in)
• Swamitva status: For residential plots in abadi (inhabited) areas in rural Uttarakhand under the PM Swamitva scheme

Name search in Hindi: The Bhulekh UK portal uses a Hindi phonetic system. If searching by Khatadhar name, use the Hindi keyboard on screen. Common surnames like Negi, Rawat, Bisht, or Panwar appear frequently across Uttarakhand villages — Khasra number search is more precise.

Record not found for current fiscal year: Try selecting the previous fiscal year in the dropdown. Some tehsils may not have updated to the current year immediately.

Nali area mismatch: The sale deed may state area in decimals while the Khatauni uses nali. One nali is approximately 200 sq metres, but this varies slightly by district. Always verify the conversion with a revenue official or property lawyer before transacting.

Mutation not reflected: Recent Dakhil Kharij (mutations) may take 30–90 days to reflect in the Bhulekh database. The physical mutation order from the Tehsil is the interim valid document.

Tehri dam area restrictions: Land in areas near the Tehri reservoir may have government acquisition or displacement notifications. Always verify with the District Collectorate if the plot is near any reservoir or hydroelectric project area.

Uttarakhand has specific land ownership laws that make pre-purchase record verification especially critical. Section 118 of the Uttarakhand Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms (UZALR) Act restricts non-Uttarakhand residents from purchasing agricultural land in the state without special permission. This restriction has been a significant source of dispute — purchases made without verifying the land's classification and the buyer's eligibility have been challenged and cancelled.

Checking the Khatauni establishes: whether the land is agricultural (regulated) or residential (less restricted), whether the Khatadhar name matches the seller's identity documents, and whether any pending mutation suggests a prior undisclosed transaction.

For home loan applications on Uttarakhand properties, lenders require the Khatauni alongside the registered sale deed and an encumbrance certificate before disbursement.
