Bengaluru: In a significant development aimed at streamlining property transactions and enhancing transparency, the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) has announced the release of e-khatas for all properties within the city limits. This online initiative marks a major milestone in the BBMP’s efforts to digitize property records and provide citizens with easy access to essential documents.
E-khatas, or electronic property tax records, are digital representations of physical property tax receipts. These online documents contain vital information about a property, including its ownership details, assessment value, property tax dues, and other relevant data. By making e-khatas readily available online, the BBMP aims to eliminate the need for citizens to visit BBMP offices to obtain physical copies of their property tax receipts.
To secure their final e-khatas, property owners can follow a simple process. They must first log in to the BBMP’s official website and navigate to the e-khata section. Using their property tax account number, owners can access their property’s details and verify the accuracy of the information displayed. If any discrepancies are found, they can raise objections or submit necessary documents for corrections.
Once the property details are verified and any issues are resolved, property owners can proceed to obtain their final e-khata. The BBMP has ensured a user-friendly interface to facilitate easy navigation and access to the required documents. Citizens can download their e-khatas in PDF format for future reference or for use in various transactions such as property registration, loans, and insurance.
The release of e-khatas is expected to have a significant impact on property transactions in Bengaluru. By providing a transparent and efficient system for accessing property records, the BBMP aims to reduce delays, minimize paperwork, and enhance overall citizen satisfaction. Furthermore, the availability of e-khatas online will promote greater accountability and transparency in property-related matters.
