Do I need an e-Khata transfer?
Pick what's closest to your situation.
I just bought this property
Yes — the e-Khata is still in the seller's name. A registered sale deed alone doesn't move it, so BBMP's records and tax bills won't reflect you until it's transferred.
Start my transferMy bank needs the Khata in my name
Yes — banks require the e-Khata (and its EPID) in the borrower's name before releasing or continuing a home loan against the property.
Start my transferThe old owner is still on the tax record
Then transfer is urgent — until it's done the previous owner stays legally liable for the property tax and the ownership chain stays broken.
Start my transferI inherited it / it's jointly owned
Yes — inheritance and joint-ownership transfers need extra papers (succession / legal-heir proof, NOC from co-owners), which we handle end to end.
Start my transferWhat is an E-Khata Transfer?
In Bengaluru, when you buy a property the e-Khata doesn't move automatically. The transfer — a mutation of ownership in BBMP's records — is filed through BBMP's e-Aasthi system (with SAKALA time-bound delivery where applicable), and results in a fresh e-Khata with an updated EPID in your name.
Unlike the old manual Khata transfers that took weeks of office visits, an e-Khata transfer is a digital process: it needs the new owner's details verified against the sale deed, a no-dues (tax clearance) check, and online coordination between the buyer, seller, and BBMP systems. Get any of these wrong and the application stalls — which is where professional handling helps.

E-Khata Transfer vs. E-Khata Conversion
These get confused constantly. In short: transfer changes the owner; conversion changes the format.
| Aspect | e-Khata Transfer | e-Khata Conversion |
|---|---|---|
| What it does | Moves an existing e-Khata into the new owner's name | Turns a paper (manual) Khata into a digital e-Khata |
| When you need it | After you buy or inherit a property that already has an e-Khata | When the property still only has a manual (paper) Khata |
| Owner change | Yes — the new owner replaces the old one | No — same owner, only the format changes |
| Typical trigger | Sale, gift, or inheritance | BBMP's Nov-2024 digitisation mandate |
| You end up with | e-Khata + EPID in your name | A first-time e-Khata + EPID |
| Government fee | Around 2% of the stamp duty paid at registration | Around 2% of the stamp-duty value |
Only have a paper Khata? You need an e-Khata conversion instead →
The words you'll see, explained
- e-Khata transfer
- Moving a property's e-Khata (BBMP's digital property record) into the new owner's name after a purchase, gift, or inheritance.
- EPID
- The unique property identification number attached to your e-Khata in BBMP's e-Aasthi system.
- Mutation
- The official change of the owner's name in the municipal / property-tax records — exactly what a Khata transfer achieves.
- NOC
- A No-Objection Certificate — e.g. from your bank (for a mortgaged property) or a society/association, confirming they don't object to the transfer.
- No-dues / tax clearance
- Proof that property tax is fully paid to date. BBMP won't approve a transfer while arrears are pending.
Why E-Khata Transfer is Critical
Skipping or delaying the transfer leaves the seller on record and can block your loan, resale, and tax updates.
Legal Requirement
Under the Karnataka Municipal Corporations Act, a change of ownership must be reported to BBMP within three months (90 days) of registration
Tax Liability
Until the transfer is done the previous owner remains liable for property taxes on BBMP's records
Loan Processing
Banks require the e-Khata in the buyer's name before sanctioning or continuing home loans
Future Sales
A broken ownership chain affects resale value and delays your next transaction
The transfer challenge
Unlike manual Khata transfers, e-Khata transfers require digital verification, exact document matching, and online coordination between buyer, seller, and BBMP systems — small mismatches are the leading cause of rejection.
Your transfer in 3 simple steps
Free eligibility check
Tell us your situation. We confirm the property's e-Khata can be transferred to you and give a fixed quote — free, no obligation.
We verify & file
Our team matches your sale deed to the existing e-Khata, clears no-dues, submits on the BBMP e-Aasthi / SAKALA portal, and coordinates with the ARO.
Get the e-Khata in your name
You receive a fresh e-Khata with an updated EPID in your name — usually within 10–15 working days — ready for loans, resale, and tax.
Our Seamless E-Khata Transfer Process
Ownership Verification
We verify the new owner's legal standing through the registered sale deed, ensuring all conditions for transfer are met before initiation.
Document Synchronization
Cross-reference the new owner's details (name, PAN, address) with the sale deed and existing e-Khata records to prevent the mismatches that trip up many DIY applicants.
BBMP Portal Processing
We submit the online e-Khata transfer application through BBMP's e-Aasthi portal with all required documents, and where applicable use the SAKALA portal for time-bound service delivery.
ARO Coordination
Direct liaison with Assistant Revenue Officers for verification and approval, keeping the e-Khata transfer moving instead of stalling for weeks.
New E-Khata Generation
Issue a fresh e-Khata certificate in the new owner's name with an updated EPID and tax-calculation basis.
Complex Transfer Scenarios We Handle
Multiple Owner & Inheritance Transfers
Joint ownership, inheritance cases, or corporate-to-individual transfers need succession / legal-heir proof and careful BBMP coordination — we prepare and file the full set.
Disputed Property Transfers
Properties with pending litigation or family disputes need legal clearance before BBMP will approve the transfer. We flag these early and guide the next step.
Mortgaged Property Transfers
Bank-financed properties need lender coordination and an NOC before the transfer can complete. We handle the paperwork between you, the bank, and BBMP.
Corporate & NRI Transfers
Company-owned and NRI transactions carry extra compliance (board resolutions, Power of Attorney, FEMA). We manage documentation and remote tracking end to end.
Common Transfer Delays We Prevent
- Name mismatches: variations between the sale deed and e-Khata records that derail the transfer
- PAN verification failures: invalid or mismatched PAN numbers
- Arrears issues: outstanding property taxes blocking the transfer
- Document errors: incorrect survey numbers or property descriptions
- Portal technical issues: system crashes during peak processing periods
