The Resource Desk

The practical shelf. Calculators, printables, the official portal directory, and the exact questions to ask a seller — everything you can pick up and use today, without an account.

Calculators & converters

The arithmetic of a land deal, done for you. All free, all in the browser, nothing stored on a server.

Downloads & printables

Take it off the screen. Print it, carry it to the Tehsil, hand it to a family member.

Official portals — and what only they can tell you

We do not host land records. Nobody outside the government can. What we do is teach you to read what the official portal gives you, and tell you honestly when only the Tehsil can answer.

Ground truthLocal Tehsil office and Patwari halka — the final word on any recordWhat to ask there
Only these are authoritative. AgriZameen is an independent private platform and is not a government body — we are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting for any land-records department. Anything you read here is a companion to the official record, never a substitute for it. Government portals occasionally change addresses or go offline for maintenance; if a link fails, search for the department's official gov.in or nic.in domain rather than trusting a lookalike site.

What to ask — the three lists

Most bad deals are not sophisticated frauds. They are ordinary questions nobody asked. These lists are free to copy, print, or read out on a call.

Ten questions for the seller

Ask all ten. Note the answers. Compare them to the record later.

  1. Whose name is on the current Jamabandi — and is it the same person selling?
  2. Is the khata joint? If yes, how many co-sharers, and have all consented in writing?
  3. Is mutation complete from the previous transfer, or still pending?
  4. Any encumbrance — rahannama (mortgage), loan against the land, court stay, or attachment?
  5. What is the recorded land type — barani, chahi, banjad — and does it match what I am being shown?
  6. Is there recorded access? A road on the ground is not a road on the map.
  7. What does Girdawari show for the last few seasons — who has actually been cultivating?
  8. Water: is there a well or borewell, is it recorded, and what is the groundwater category here?
  9. Why is it being sold? Vague answers are not disqualifying, but they are worth remembering.
  10. What is the DLC rate for this khasra, and who is paying the stamp duty?

Six documents to collect before you pay anything

A photocopy is not a document. Ask for fresh, dated copies.

  1. Fresh Jamabandi — pulled within the last few days, not months ago.
  2. Bhu-Naksha extract for the khasra, matched against the Jamabandi area.
  3. Girdawari entries for recent seasons.
  4. Chain of title — the previous sale deed or mutation order that brought the land to this seller.
  5. Identity proof of every recorded co-sharer, not just the person negotiating.
  6. Encumbrance position — written confirmation that no mortgage or charge subsists.

Five things to do on the site visit

Go once with a plan; you will learn more than three casual visits.

  1. Walk the boundary and record it — our GPS app saves the track and area.
  2. Match the shape against Bhu-Naksha while you are standing there, not afterwards.
  3. Check the access route end to end, in the season you will actually use it.
  4. Ask the neighbours two questions: who farms this, and is there any dispute?
  5. Photograph everything, including the approach road and any existing structure or well.

Apps — take it to the field

Built for real conditions: patchy signal, bright sun, one hand on a phone.

Services — when you want it done, not explained

Independent, buyer-side, and priced before we start. We say no when a parcel does not stand up.

Talk to a person

A phone number that a founder actually answers. No form gate, no lead-nurture sequence.

No resource matched that. Try duty, converter, portal, checklist or lease — or tap Everything.

Not sure which of these you need?

Describe the situation in one message — a khasra number, a village name, a budget, or a document you cannot read. We will point you at the right tool or tell you plainly that it is not a deal worth chasing.

Doing the paperwork yourself? The registry, namantaran and conversion guide sets out the whole sequence, the state-by-state names for the same documents, the cost stack and the appeal ladder — and the one rule that saves the most money: a mutation entry is not a title.
