How to Check Land Papers Before You Buy

Khatian, mutation, DCR and land tax — what each paper means and how to check it.

Most land disputes start with papers nobody checked. Ask for these documents and check them at the land office:

  • Title deed (dolil) and the chain of previous deeds
  • Khatian (CS, SA, RS and BS records)
  • Mutation (namjari) and the DCR
  • Land tax receipts (khajna) up to this year
  • A non-encumbrance certificate showing no loans on the land

Our agents help every buyer check these before any payment.
