What is Khata Correction in Bangalore?
Khata correction, or rectification, is the process of fixing wrong details in the municipal property record so that it matches the registered title. The errors are more common than people expect: an owner's name spelt differently from the sale deed, a site measurement or built-up area that does not match, a wrong door number or address, a missing co-owner, the wrong usage category, or boundaries copied incorrectly. With the move to e-khata, which pulls details from registered documents and Aadhaar, many owners are finding mismatches for the first time. A mismatch matters because banks, buyers' lawyers and sub-registrars compare the khata against the deed; if they disagree, the transaction stops until one of them is corrected. The work is to establish which record is right, gather documents that prove it, and file the correction with the authority that holds the record.
When Do You Need This Service?
- Owner name on the khata or e-khata differs from the sale deed or Aadhaar
- Site area or built-up area on the khata does not match the registered deed or plan
- Wrong door number, street or ward on the record
- A co-owner is missing, or a deceased owner is still shown
- Property usage (residential / commercial) is recorded wrongly and affects tax
- The bank or a buyer's lawyer has flagged a khata mismatch
Types of Khata Correction in Bangalore
Name correction
Spelling or format differences between the khata, deed and Aadhaar, or a name change after marriage.
Extent / measurement correction
Site area or built-up area differing from the registered deed or sanctioned plan.
Address / door number correction
Wrong door number, street, or ward details on the record.
Owner addition or removal
A missing co-owner added, or a deceased owner's entry updated with heirship documents.
Documents Required
- Registered title deed showing the correct details
- Current khata / e-khata extract showing the error
- Aadhaar of the owner(s), and a name-change affidavit or gazette where names differ
- Approved plan or survey sketch, for measurement corrections
- Latest property tax receipt
- Death certificate and heirship documents, where an owner has died
Step-by-Step Process
Find the source of the mismatch
We compare the khata with the deed, plan, tax record and Aadhaar to see which record is wrong — sometimes it is the deed, not the khata.
Choose the fix
A khata correction, a rectification deed for the registered document, or a name affidavit — we tell you which, and why.
Prepare evidence
Supporting documents are assembled so the correction can be approved on paper.
File the correction
Application filed through the e-khata system or the relevant office, with fees paid and receipts shared.
Follow up and deliver
Queries answered, inspection coordinated if required, and the corrected extract shared with you.
Cost Factors
Pricing depends on several factors specific to your situation:
- Type of error — a spelling fix is simpler than an area correction needing a survey
- Whether the registered deed itself also needs a rectification deed
- Authority: BBMP-area priced from the figure shown; other authorities quoted after review
- Number of owners and whether heirship documents are needed
Transparent pricing: Your Sevantay professional will provide a clear cost estimate before starting work. You pay only after the service is completed to your satisfaction.

How this works in Bangalore
Since e-khata became the working record in the BBMP area, many owners have found details that do not match their deeds — often names formatted differently from Aadhaar, or areas carried over from old manual records. These mismatches surface at the worst time: during a sale, a loan, or a registration appointment. For properties under BDA, a city or town municipal council, or a gram panchayat, the record sits with that body and the correction route differs; we confirm the authority first.
Sevantay is a private facilitation platform, not a government body. We prepare, file and follow up on your application through our verified professional network; approvals, timelines and official fees are decided by the authority concerned.
Pro Tips from Our Experts
- Check your e-khata extract now, not when a buyer asks for it — corrections take weeks.
- Keep your name identical across Aadhaar, PAN and the deed where you can; it prevents most name mismatches.

Frequently Asked Questions
My e-khata shows a different name from my sale deed. What now?
First we check which is right. If the deed is correct, the e-khata is corrected using the deed and your ID. If your name was recorded differently in the deed itself, the fix may be an affidavit or a rectification deed, and we explain which applies.
Can the area on the khata be corrected?
Yes, if the registered documents or approved plan support the correct figure. Where they disagree with each other, a survey or plan document may be needed, and we tell you before filing.
Is this the same as a khata transfer?
No. A transfer changes the owner after a sale, gift or inheritance. A correction fixes wrong details while the owner stays the same.
How long does a correction take?
Commonly 30–60 working days after a complete application; longer if an inspection or survey is needed.
Will a correction change my property tax?
It can, if the correction changes the area or usage on which tax is assessed. We flag this before filing.

A khata error is usually harmless until someone compares it with the deed — and in a property transaction, someone always does. The owner name that is spelt slightly differently, the site that is recorded as a few square feet smaller, the door number from before the street was renumbered: each is enough to stop a bank or a sub-registrar.
Sevantay handles khata correction from from ₹11,000 in the BBMP area. The first step matters most: working out which record is actually wrong, so the correction is filed once and accepted. If the error is in the registered deed rather than the khata, we tell you and handle the rectification route instead.
