Quick answer: Haryana’s land records are on the Revenue Department’s Jamabandi portal (jamabandi.nic.in). Open “Jamabandi Nakal for Checking”, select the district, tehsil, village and Jamabandi year, and search by owner name, khewat number, khasra (survey) number or date of mutation. The same portal also shows mutation status, cadastral maps, collector rates, court cases and deed registration services.
What is a Jamabandi?
A Jamabandi is the Record of Rights (RoR) for a revenue estate (village) in Haryana. The Jamabandi portal’s own glossary describes it like this:
- It records ownership, cultivation and the current state of various rights in land.
- The patwari prepares a fresh Jamabandi every five years, and a Revenue Officer attests it.
- Two copies are prepared: one goes to the District Record Room and the other stays with the patwari.
- Under Section 44 of the Punjab Land Revenue Act, 1887, the entries in the Jamabandi are presumed to be true.
- Changes in rights, such as a sale or inheritance, are added through a mutation after a Revenue Officer verifies them.
“Nakal” simply means a copy of the Jamabandi. An earlier version of this article said the copy kept in the District Record Room is called the Nakal; in fact any copy of the record is a nakal.
A typical Jamabandi shows:
- owner details;
- cultivator (kashtkar) details;
- khewat, khatauni and khasra (field) numbers, and the patti;
- area and type of land;
- source of irrigation;
- rent paid by the cultivator, where applicable.
How to check Jamabandi Nakal online in Haryana
- Go to jamabandi.nic.in and choose Jamabandi > Jamabandi Nakal for Checking.
- Select a search type: By Owner Name, By Khewat, By Khasra/Survey No. or By Date of Mutation.
- Select the district, tehsil or sub-tehsil, village and Jamabandi year.
- Enter the name or number and search. The nakal appears on screen.
The “for checking” copy is for information. If you need a copy that others can verify, the portal has a separate Get Verifiable copy of Nakal service, which needs a login. Check the fee shown before you pay.
Other land record queries on the portal
The Query menu lets you look up specific details for a village:
- owner details and kashtkar (cultivator) details;
- makbuja (possession) details and total land;
- irrigation details;
- majrua (cultivable) and gair majrua (uncultivable or common) land;
- khewat and khatauni details.
Mutation: what it costs and how to track it
A mutation (intkal) updates the Jamabandi when ownership changes through a sale deed, inheritance, court decree, partition or similar event.
Fee: Under the Haryana government’s notification of 7 January 2013, published on the Jamabandi portal, the fee is ₹200 per mutation, plus ₹50 per mutation as a service charge deposited with the District Information Technology Society (DITS). That makes ₹250 in total. No fee is charged for certain entries, such as land given under the Punjab Bhudan Yagna Act or free residential plots allotted to Scheduled Castes and Backward Classes under the Gramin Janta Housing Scheme. An earlier version of this article said the mutation fee was ₹250 plus ₹50; the correct split is ₹200 plus ₹50. Check the portal’s “Mutation Fees” document for any later revision.
Check mutation status:
- On jamabandi.nic.in, open Mutation > Check Mutation Status.
- Select the district and tehsil, enter the registration (deed) number and date, and search.
View a mutation order: choose Mutation > View Mutation Orders, select the district, tehsil and village, and enter the mutation number and date.
The portal also has Mutation Status of Deeds and Check Mutation of Deed and Raise Objection, which lets you object if a mutation is entered against your land without your knowledge.
Property registration services
The Property Registration menu covers:
- checklist for deed registration and the deed registration standard operating procedure (SOP);
- deed templates;
- stamp duty and registration fees, and a stamp duty calculator;
- collector rates;
- deed appointment availability and booking;
- registered deeds and stay orders;
- encumbrance certificate applications and status.
How to check collector rates
- Open Property Registration > Collector Rates.
- Select the district, tehsil, period and village, and submit.
The collector rate is the minimum value the government uses for stamp duty on a property in that area.
How to check deed appointment slots
- Open Check Deed Appointment Availability.
- Select the district and tehsil and the number of days to see open slots.
- To book, use Deed Registration Appointment, log in with your mobile number and OTP, and choose a normal or tatkal appointment.
Stamp duty and registration fees change from time to time. Use the portal’s fee document and calculator rather than figures from third-party websites.
Cadastral maps
The Cadastral Maps > View Cadastral Maps link opens maps hosted by the Haryana Space Applications Centre (HARSAC). Search by district and tehsil, then select the village to see the plot map.
Court cases
- Revenue court status: opens the Haryana revenue courts portal, where you can search by court, case number or party details.
- Civil court status: select the district, tehsil and village to see civil court cases recorded against land.
Checking court cases and stay orders before buying land is a sensible step.
