Khata Certificate
Also called: A-Khata, B-Khata, BBMP Khata, Property Khata
The municipal record confirming a property is in BBMP's (or the local body's) tax register.
What it is
A Khata is the local body's tax-assessment register entry. A-Khata = property is fully regularised; banks lend, building plan can be sanctioned. B-Khata = secondary register, banks generally don't lend. Critical for any property in BBMP / municipal limits.
Who issues it
BBMP for Bengaluru properties; town panchayats / city municipal councils / nagar palikas elsewhere; gram panchayats issue Form 9 (eSwathu) for rural properties.
Where to obtain
BBMP eAasthi portal (bbmpeaasthi.karnataka.gov.in); Sahaya Kendra; ward office.
Validity
Continuous — the Khata is updated when the property is transferred or regularised.
What to check
- Form A or Form B — explicitly check the form type
- Property identifier (PID) is consistent with eAasthi records
- Owner name matches the sale deed buyer-of-record
- Site dimensions and built-up area match the sanctioned building plan
- Property classification (residential / commercial / industrial)
Common red flags on a Khata Certificate
- B-Khata when a bank loan is required for the buyer
- Khata in seller's name but mutation hasn't happened (a different party still holds it)
- Pending Akrama-Sakrama application that may change classification
- PID number mismatch between Khata and eAasthi

How PropertyRisk handles Khata Certificate
PropertyRisk extracts every field from your uploaded Khata Certificate using multilingual OCR (English, Kannada, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu) and a Karnataka-specific schema for this document type. Each finding cites the exact page and clause it came from in the original document.
On every case where this document is uploaded, PropertyRisk reconciles its contents against the rest of the document chain — sale deeds, RTC, mutation extracts, khata — and against live government portal records to surface inconsistencies a non-expert would miss.
