Khasra Number Explained 2026: Meaning, Khasra vs Khatauni, and How to Check Khasra and Khasra Naksha Online State by State
Checked against official government sources. General information, not legal or financial advice.
A khasra number is the number given to one plot or field on the village revenue map. It identifies the piece of land itself, while the khata or khatauni shows who holds it. You can check land by khasra number free on your state’s land record portal, such as UP Bhulekh, MP Bhulekh or Apna Khata, and see the plot’s shape on the khasra naksha (Bhunaksha). This guide explains the terms and how to check khasra records and maps online, state by state.
- What it is: the plot or field number on the village map (also called gata, khesra or plot number)
- Kept by: the state revenue department, through the patwari or lekhpal
- Check online: free on state portals such as upbhulekh.gov.in, webgis2.mpbhulekh.gov.in and apnakhata.rajasthan.gov.in
- Map: the khasra naksha on the state Bhunaksha portal
- Ownership: shown in the khatauni, jamabandi, B-1 or record of rights, not in the khasra number alone
- National ID: a 14-digit ULPIN (Bhu-Aadhaar) is being added to each land parcel

What is a khasra number?
Every revenue village has a map that divides its land into plots. Each plot gets a number, and that number is the khasra number. The khasra register records its area, land type and, in many states, crops and possession.
The name changes by state. In Uttar Pradesh the khasra is also called the gata number. Bihar and Jharkhand records say khesra. Odisha uses plot number, and Maharashtra, Gujarat and the southern states use survey number or gat number. In Haryana and Punjab, a field is often identified by its rectangle (murabba) and killa number, which together work as the khasra number.
When a plot is divided, the parts usually get sub-numbers, such as 245/1 and 245/2, so an old deed may show a different number from the current record.
Khasra, khata, khatauni, khewat and survey number
| Term | What it means |
|---|---|
| Khasra number | The plot or field number on the village map |
| Khata number | The account number of a landholder or family; one khata can hold many khasras |
| Khatauni | The record of rights in UP and Uttarakhand, listing the holders of each khata and their khasras |
| Khewat number | The ownership holding number in Haryana, Punjab and Rajasthan records |
| Survey or gat number | The plot number used in Maharashtra, Gujarat and southern states |
| Khatiyan | The survey record of rights in Bihar, Jharkhand, Odisha and West Bengal |
| ULPIN (Bhu-Aadhaar) | A 14-digit code for each land parcel, based on its map coordinates |
The khasra number tells you which land; the khatauni tells you whose land.
Do not know your khasra number? It is in the property schedule of the sale deed and in old khatauni or jamabandi copies. You can also search the portal by owner name, click the plot on the Bhunaksha map, or ask the village patwari or lekhpal.

Khasra naksha: see the plot on the map
The khasra naksha (also called bhu-naksha, shajra or cadastral map) is the digitised village map that shows each khasra with its shape, area and neighbouring plots. Most states run it on a Bhunaksha portal.
- Open your state’s map portal, for example upbhunaksha.gov.in in Uttar Pradesh or bhunaksha.rajasthan.gov.in in Rajasthan. In Haryana, use View Cadastral Maps on jamabandi.nic.in.
- Select the district, tehsil and village to load the village map.
- Type the khasra number in the plot box, or click the plot on the map.
- Read the plot details and click Map Report (or the download option) to save a PDF.
Other states link their maps from the portals above; see our Bhunaksha UP guide. The online naksha is not a ground measurement. For an exact boundary, apply for demarcation at the tehsil.
B-1 and khasra in Madhya Pradesh
In Madhya Pradesh, the khasra is the plot-wise record of area, land type and holder, and the B-1 lists all the khasras held by one landholder in a village, much like the khatauni in UP. The upgraded MP Bhulekh WebGIS 2.0 portal (webgis2.mpbhulekh.gov.in) went live across the state on 30 July 2025. It supports OTP-based e-KYC, and certified khasra copies can be sent on WhatsApp. Check the fee on the portal.
ULPIN or Bhu-Aadhaar
Under the Digital India Land Records Modernisation Programme, the Centre is giving each parcel a 14-digit alphanumeric ULPIN, also called Bhu-Aadhaar. It is generated from the coordinates of the plot’s boundary points. As reported in August 2026, more than 40 crore parcels had been given a ULPIN. Where your record shows a ULPIN, note it with the khasra number.
Why the khasra number matters when you buy land
- Match the khasra number and area in the sale deed with the current khatauni or record of rights.
- Check that the seller is a recorded holder and that all co-holders join the sale.
- Find the plot on the khasra naksha and visit it.
- Government land, ponds, roads and grazing land cannot be bought privately.
- Agricultural land needs a change of land use before you build a house on it.
- Search for loans and past sales with an encumbrance certificate.
