If your plot is registered in your name but the Khata (eKhata) has not been transferred from the builder to you, it may pose challenges during resale. While the registered Sale Deed proves ownership, BBMP or local municipal authorities require the Khata to be in your name for legal transfer during resale.
IS EKHATA MANDATORY FOR SELLING A PROPERTY?
Yes, having an eKhata in your name is mandatory, especially for selling flats or plots in BBMP, BDA or Panchayat limits. Without an updated Khata, the buyer may not be able to apply for home loans or complete registration,
WHAT IS THE COST OF KHATA TRANSFER?
The Khata transfer fee is calculated as 2% of the stamp duty paid during the registration of your sale deed.
Example:
- Property Purchase Price: Rs.50,00,000
- Stamp Duty Paid (at 5%): Rs.2,50,000
- Khata Transfer Charges (2% of Rs.2,50,000): Rs.5,000
- Additional Charges: Rs.125 (application download fee)
PROCESSING TIME
The khata transfer from the builder’s name to the buyer’s name is typically processed automatically within 8 working days from the date of sale deed registration. Once the mutation fee is paid, the e-Khata can be downloaded.
