Step-by-Step Verification Checklist

Do these in order before paying any advance for land in MH, Goa or Karnataka.

1
Get the Survey Number from the seller
Ask for: Survey Number, Village, Taluka, District. Without this you cannot check any records. Do not accept a verbal description only.
2
Download 7/12 (MH) / Form I&XIV (Goa) / RTC (KA)
Verify seller's name in ownership column. Check land type (agricultural/NA). Look for any tenant name or encumbrance notes.
3
Get Encumbrance Certificate (EC) for 30 years
From IGR Maharashtra / Kaveri Online / Goa Registration Dept. EC shows all loans, mortgages and past transactions. If any loan appears — the seller must clear it before sale.
4
Verify NA / TCP Sanad / DC Order
If buying for construction, the land must have NA (MH), TCP Sanad (Goa) or DC Order (KA). Without this, building plan approval and home loan are not possible.
5
Check for court cases on eCourts.gov.in
Search by owner name in eCourts. Any pending partition suit, injunction or attachment order can block the transaction completely.
6
Physical boundary inspection with licensed surveyor
Walk the boundary stones with the seller present. Compare with the survey map. Boundary disputes are the most common post-purchase problem.

Important: Downloading records online is just Step 1. Always engage a qualified advocate for title search and document verification before executing any sale deed. Online records may have delays in reflecting latest mutations or court orders.
