• Katha details for katha split site

Hi, 
We brught a site with another party. original site dimentions was 65-62 which was split as 30-62(party A) and 35-62 (party B). We are party B. 
Registration is done and we have applied for katha split/transfer. But we are not sure if there is a mistake in the katha. Here are the details
say the original katha number is 123. party A has got katha number as 123 and party B has got the number as 123/1 . 
For party B
In the handwritten katha certificate, they have written 123/1 and 
old number (Halaevudhu -> in kannada) ->123/1
new number (Hosadu -> in kannada) -> dash

according to me the above is incorrect but the person in bbmp office says the above is correct. Can you confirm please.

If original katha number is 123 then on split it should be 123/1 and 123/2 for Party A and party B

Before bifurcation of the site the Khatha number was 123 and after bifurcation of the site, it's correctly given as 123/1 for your site. However old Khatha number should have been shown as 123 and not 123/1.

It is a subdivision number in which a khata number has been sub divided into two numbers as stated by you.

The BBMP records show that the old number is 123/1 which in my opinion is incorrect  because the original number(old number) is 123 and not 123/1 and the new number is 123/1 for the property sub divided to B.

You may seek rectification of this error by submitting an application to the authorities concerned

- As per law, Khata bifurcation is the process of splitting the Khata of a single property into multiple Khatas, and this is required when a property owner decides to divide their property into smaller units.

- Further. each unit will then have its own separate Khata, making it easier to manage property taxes and other legalities for each divided portion.

- Yes, the original number is 123 and not 123/1, and hence you can move an application before the BBMP for the correction.

Yes but you need to match it with another Latha of similar nature or get the same from said office under RTI

Dear Client,

The original site had the Khata number 123. After the site was split, Party A retained the original number (123), and Party B (you) received a new number (123/1). This is a common practice where the original property retains the base number, and subsequent divisions are given sub-numbers. The fact that there is a dash in the new number field might indicate that the municipal office hasn’t assigned a new number yet or it could be a clerical error. This needs clarification from the municipal office. The BBMP officer mentioned it is correct, but to ensure accuracy and avoid issues later, it's advisable to get a written clarification from the BBMP. If it is a clerical issue, it can be corrected with a rectification request. Given that these matters pertain to local municipal records, and specific rules or procedures may vary slightly, it is essential to cross-check with the relevant authorities. Should you require any further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us.
