In Bengaluru, as per the new law, e Khata is now compulsory before you can obtain an A Khata for an apartment. There is a practical, legal reason behind it. The authorities want verified, unified digital property records before granting full municipal legitimacy. This requirement applies across the city as part of the Greater Bengaluru Authority and BBMP’s (Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike) property regulation reforms.
What are the Reasons for Mandatory E Khata Shift from Nov 1, 2025?
An e-Khata is effectively the electronic version of your property account record stored in the official BBMP database. It links a unique property identification number (PID) to standardised ownership details, tax payments, and any municipal compliance data in a digitally verifiable way.
Under the new rules, obtaining this e-Khata proves your apartment unit’s details are on record and verified by the civic system before you can apply for the traditional A-Khata certificate, which is the document that legally confirms your fully compliant ownership status.
For apartments, this step is especially important because each flat is treated as a separate property unit with its own ownership and compliance record, not just part of a site or project.
E-Khata directly links property records online for instant verification by SRO.
It ensures all property details are digitally verified before an A-Khata is granted, reducing errors and illegal sales.
It harmonises ownership records with tax compliance and planning approvals.
It stops unverified paper khatas from being treated as valid for legal transactions.
So, each flat owner must first upload the sale deed, tax receipts, sanctioned building plan, and related documents online and get an e-Khata issued. Only once the e-Khata exists can the application for an A-Khata (full legal khata status) be accepted and processed.
