In India, “Instant Land Records” usually refers to accessing Record of Rights (RoR), 7/12 extracts, or Pahani digitally via state-run portals. Most states have digitized their records under the Digital India Land Records Modernization Programme (DILRMP), allowing you to view and download documents instantly.
How to Get Your Records Instantly
To search for a record, you generally need one of the following details:
Survey Number / Khasra Number: The unique identifier for the land parcel.
Khata Number: The account number of the landowner.
Owner’s Name: Some portals allow searching by the name of the owner.
District, Tehsil, and Village: You must know the exact administrative location.
How to Get Your Records Instantly Steps
Visit the official portal for your state (listed above).
Select the “View RoR” or “Search Land Records” option.
Select your District, Taluka/Tehsil, and Village.
Enter the Survey/Khasra number or Owner name.
View the record on screen and download the PDF.
Private “Instant” Apps
There are private apps like Landeed that aggregate data from these government portals to provide a faster, mobile-friendly interface.
Note: While these apps are convenient for a quick check, always rely on the official government website for legal purposes or certified copies.
Important Tip
Certified vs. View-only: Online records are often “for information only.” If you need a document for a bank loan or legal court case, look for the “Digitally Signed” or “Certified Copy” section on the portal. These usually require a small nominal fee.
