Buying or selling a property in Bangalore can feel overwhelming because of the multiple legal and administrative steps involved. Fortunately, with the introduction of digital platforms like eAasthi, the process has become far more convenient and transparent.
If the seller has sold a property that already has an eKhata, here’s some good news. The Khata transfer process is now almost seamless.
AUTOMATIC KHATA UPDATE AFTER SALE DEED REGISTRATION
Once the sale deed is registered at the Sub-Registrar’s Office, the buyer’s name is automatically updated in the eKhata records. This eliminates the need for filing a separate Khata transfer application, saving valuable time and effort for both the buyer and seller.
This automated system ensures that:
- Time is saved – No need for manual Khata transfer requests.
- Reduced hassle – Buyers need not follow up with BBMP or ward offices separately.
- Accuracy – Since updates happen digitally, the chances of manual data entry errors are minimized.
CONFIRMATION FROM THE WARD OFFICE
After the sale deed registration, the buyer will receive an SMS confirmation from the concerned ward office regarding the Khata mutation.
Sample SMS:
