Government-Verified Signed Copy
Same as RTC but digitally signed by the issuing authority, with a QR code for instant verification.
In Kannada: ಡಿಜಿಟಲ್ ಸಹಿಯ ಪಹಣಿ·Also known as: i-RTC · signed Pahani · digitally signed RTC Karnataka · e-RTC
An RTC document digitally signed by the authorised Bhoomi operator, containing a QR code that can be scanned to verify authenticity directly on the government portal.
Banks processing home loans and Sub-Registrar offices processing property registrations often require a digitally signed RTC. The free view copy is rejected.
Step by step
Open the digitally signed RTC service (i-RTC) at rtc.karnataka.gov.in and log in as a citizen.
Top up the i-Wallet — the signed copy carries a small statutory fee per document.
Select District, Taluk, Hobli, Village, Survey Number, Surnoc and Hissa.
Submit the request and pay from the wallet balance.
Download the signed PDF. Scan the QR code to confirm it validates against the government portal.
Anashwar Docs runs this sequence for you against the government portal and returns the PDF in 10–15 min. Open the document portal.
What goes wrong
The signed RTC and the free view RTC come from different portals. Requesting one does not give you the other.
Wallet top-ups can take time to reflect. Fund the wallet before you need the document, not during a registration appointment.
The signature is time-stamped. Banks routinely reject copies older than a few weeks — pull it close to your submission date.
If the QR code fails to validate, the PDF has been re-saved or edited. Always share the original download, never a printed-and-rescanned copy.
Stuck right now
Symptoms we hit running this retrieval against the government portal, and what each one means.
| Symptom | What it means and what to do |
|---|---|
| Wallet balance not reflecting | Top-ups can lag. Fund the i-Wallet before you need the document, not during a registration appointment. |
| QR code fails to validate | The PDF was re-saved, printed and rescanned, or edited. Always share the original download. |
| Bank says the copy is too old | Lenders commonly want one issued within about 30 days. Pull it close to your submission date. |
| Requested the signed copy but got the free view | They are different services on different portals. The signed RTC comes from the i-RTC service, not the main Bhoomi view. |
| Parcel identifiers rejected | Same cascade rules as the plain RTC — District, Taluk, Hobli, Village, Survey No, Surnoc, Hissa, all chosen from the dropdowns. |
Not enough on its own
No single Karnataka record proves title. Ownership is established by reading the revenue records, the registration record and the survey record together — a gap between any two of them is the thing worth finding before you pay.
Primary land ownership record — confirms who owns the land, land type, area, and tenancy.
Shows every registered transaction on the property — loans, mortgages, and disputes since 2004.
Digitally signed Khata — required for property registration, loans, and building plan approvals.
FAQ
The free view copy from Bhoomi is marked for information only and is rejected by banks and Sub-Registrar offices. The digitally signed RTC carries the issuing authority's digital signature and a QR code, which makes it legally usable.
Scan the QR code printed on the document. It resolves against the government portal and displays the record as issued. If the scan fails, the file has been altered or re-saved.
There is no statutory expiry, but lenders and registration offices typically want one issued within the last 30 days because ownership can change at any time.
