Karnataka Land Records by District

In Karnataka, land and property records are organized geographically from the district level down to the individual plot. Whether you are searching for an RTC (Pahani), Encumbrance Certificate (EC), Mutation Register (MR), or a village survey map, you will need to navigate this geographic cascade on the Kaveri and Bhoomi portals.

The Geographical Hierarchy

Property records follow a standard administrative structure:

• District: The top level (e.g., Bengaluru Urban, Mysuru). Note that sub-registrar zones in Bengaluru are often treated as distinct 'districts' on the Kaveri portal.
• Taluk: A sub-district administrative area.
• Hobli: A cluster of adjoining villages within a taluk, used for revenue collection. Hobli names are essential for disambiguating villages with the same name.
• Village: The local settlement area where the property is located.
• Survey Number: The primary identifier for agricultural land.
• Surnoc / Hissa: Sub-divisions of a primary survey number (e.g., Survey No. 42, Surnoc 1, Hissa A).
