Ownership Check Using the Sale Deed
The registered sale deed provides key details to confirm property ownership. In the images below, we have highlighted the following:
- Date of Registration
- Seller’s Name
- Buyer’s Name
Another page of the sale deed shows the registration number, which is also highlighted for reference.
Additionally, the property schedule in the sale deed specifies the exact property details.
Ownership Check Using the Encumbrance Certificate (EC)
We extracted the encumbrance certificate online via Kaveri Online Services to cross-check the property ownership. The EC verifies the details recorded in the sale deed.
In the EC:
- Column 3: Date of registration. The sale deed was registered on 20th March 2021, which matches the date in the EC.
- Column 5: Seller’s name. The seller listed in the sale deed, Mr. VIKEE, appears identically in the EC.
- Column 6: Buyer’s name. The buyer, Mr. ANAND, also matches the EC record.
- Column 9: Registration number. The 5-digit registration number in the sale deed corresponds exactly with the EC.
This cross-verification ensures the property ownership is accurate and legally recorded.
