BENGALURU: Starting Sept 13, all properties under the jurisdiction of Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) have been required to switch to the e-khata system, replacing the traditional paper-based khata system.

Currently, there are over 2 lakh properties in Bengaluru which come under BDA limits, and this initiative aims to enhance transparency in property transactions, making it easier to detect double registrations, illegal financial dealings, and other fraudulent activities. It will also help buyers verify whether the sites or houses they are interested in purchasing are legal or illegal.

Buyers must ensure they secure an e-khata during any property purchase. Each registered property will receive a unique identification number under the Kaveri-2 software, currently in use.

“The e-khata will cover all types of khatas, including BDA, A khata, and B khata. This means that paper-based khatas will no longer be valid from the implementation date,” said N Jayaram, commissioner of BDA.

“The unique number assigned to each property will make it possible to verify ownership, check whether taxes have been fully paid, and detect any illegal activities, such as double registration,” he added.

According to BDA officials, properties with existing khata records need not apply for an e-khata unless there is a change in ownership. However, when a property is sold, gifted, or transferred in any way, an e-khata will be required.

To apply for e-khata, property owners and buyers can visit the Karnataka Seva Sindhu portal, click on the Sakala category, and select the e-khata option. After the necessary details and application are submitted, the e-khata will be processed within 3-5 days and can then be downloaded.
