What is this service?
Correction of errors in the municipal property record.
Errors in the municipal record - misspelled names, wrong dimensions, wrong usage classification - block tax payments and transactions. Corrections are applied through the municipal system with supporting documents, and e-Khatha records sometimes need reconciliation with older manual records.
Why and when you need it
- Why
- Tax demands, sales and loans all read the Khatha - errors there surface at the worst time.
- Who needs it
- Owners whose Khatha or e-Khatha record carries errors.
- When
- As soon as an error is noticed, and always before a transaction.
Required documents
- Khatha certificate and extract showing the error
- Title documents supporting the correct particulars
- Identity proof of the owner
- Supporting records - tax receipts, approved plans, sale deed
Identity and supporting documents
- PAN card of each applicant or party
- Aadhaar card or another government photo identity and address proof
- Passport-size photographs
- For companies and associations: incorporation documents, board resolution and authorisation letter
Step-by-step procedure

Government fees and SRCHN assistance charges are always kept separate. Nothing here is an invented price - confirm current amounts on the official portal or with our team before paying.

Common rejection reasons

- The change sought is actually a transfer, not a correction
- Conflicting records across manual and e-Khatha systems
Important cautions
A name change by sale or inheritance is a transfer, not a correction - use the transfer route
Verify the corrected record before relying on it in a transaction
FAQs
My name is spelled wrong on the Khatha - correction or transfer?
A spelling error is a correction; a different owner is a transfer.
e-Khatha shows different details from my old Khatha - which is right?
They need reconciliation through the municipal authority. Do not assume either is correct - apply with your title records.
Can dimensions be corrected?
Yes, with supporting survey or approval records.
