• Khata extract - registered sale deed - mismatch in UDS

The registered sale deed of the property shows UDS as 690 sq ft, whereas, the khata extract is showing as 150 sq ft. Other details like SBA, Owner name, flat details are same at both places. 

1. Why is this discrepancy? The flat property has a khata certificate
2. Can UDS be less than 10% of SBA?
3. Is it something i should be concerned about?

OC of the entire property is available. Property tax paid is up to date for 19-20

The extent of land property in all respects should not have a vast difference from the khata to that of the registered sale deed  which is paving way for  cause of concern.

You may clarify this from the builder and get the matter rectified at this stage itself.

 

Any error detected after registration of the concerned sale deed, can be corrected by a “Rectification deed” only which also has some conditions and limitations.

Conditions

(a) Error must be genuine
(b) It must be inadvertent not intentional
(c) All the parties must agree to the rectification thereof.

Limitations

Rectification deed can rectify only factual errors NOT error of law, such as
(A) Deficient stamp duty
(B) Jurisdictional error of Sub-Registry office
(C) Basic character of transaction e.g. Sale transaction cannot be corrected as Gift
(D) It is meant to rectify defects in the original deed NOT to change the nature of the transaction OR Intention of the parties involved.

 a Khata is an important document because it is an important evidence of who owns and possesses the property concerned. However, it is not the sole or conclusive evidence. And its accuracy is not guaranteed by the government.

You need to execute rectification deed or apply to the concerned department for making the changes

Khata cannot be rectified, it will be given on the basis of the sale deed especially with regard to the extent and the boundaries hence you cannot rectify the khata.

the bank will not go into the contents of khata in respect of the extent of the property including UDS, it will rely upon the registered sale deed alone.

Sale deed is not required to be rectified as it mention your area of UDS correctly 

 

2) during  khata transfer you can get it rectified

1. It will be imprudent to purchase the property in question unless the defect is cured. This can cause lot of problems in future.

2. The sale deed is not to be rectified, khata is to be rectified.

3. Bank will not come to your rescue if you face a problem in future.
