Khasra Number
खसरा क्रमांकThe unique numerical plot identifier assigned to a specific parcel of land in rural and peri-urban Madhya Pradesh.
Detailed Legal & Statutory Meaning (MPLRC 1959)
A Khasra is the foundational cadastral land record maintained by the revenue department (Patwari). It specifies the geographical survey number, exact area in hectares or square meters, agricultural soil classification, crop patterns, and the legal owner name (Bhumiswami). Every real estate title search in MP begins with the Khasra number on the MP Bhulekh portal.
Key Record Components & Due Diligence Points
- ▪Survey Number & Sub-division (e.g. Khasra 142/1, 142/2)
- ▪Total Area in Hectares (converted to Sq.Ft: 1 Hectare = 1,07,639 Sq.Ft)
- ▪Column 12 (Remarks / Kaifiyat) containing bank loans, stays, or court orders
- ▪Name of Bhumiswami (Registered Titleholder)
Khasra describes the physical plot of land (size, soil, crop), whereas Khatauni (B1 Kishtbandi) aggregates all Khasra plots owned by a single individual under one Khata account.
Importance During Property Purchase & Registry
Before purchasing agricultural land, plots, or township developments, verifying the Khasra reveals whether the land is free of government leases, bank mortgages (Bandhak), litigation in the Tehsildar court, or tribal (Section 165/170B) transfer restrictions.
Direct Impact on Madhya Pradesh Circle Rates & Stamp Duty
Collector guideline rates in Madhya Pradesh (MPIGR e-Panjiyan) are indexed directly against Khasra numbers in peri-urban areas. The circle rate specifies distinct valuation per hectare or square meter for each individual Khasra based on its road frontage.
