How to check mutation (intkal) status

Select the district, tehsil, village and year.
Under Type of Nakal, choose Mutation.
Search by mutation number. For mutations after a registry, search options include the deed (vaseeka) number, transaction number or mutation request number.
Open the report to see the parties, khasra numbers and whether the mutation is sanctioned.

Under the Easy Jamabandi reforms, the intkal for a registered sale deed is done automatically within 30 days. For inheritance or older cases, apply online, and the request is to be completed within 30 days with WhatsApp updates at each stage. Read our property mutation guide for how mutation works.

Roznamcha, court cases and cadastral map

Roznamcha: set Type of Nakal to Roznamcha, choose Rapat No. Wise, enter the year and rapat number, and view the report.
Court cases: search by district, tehsil, village and khewat or khasra number to see if a case is pending on the land.
Cadastral map: click Cadastral Map, choose the district, tehsil and village, and zoom in on the village map to find your khasra.

The village map is a survey record, not a ground measurement. For the exact boundary, apply for demarcation at the tehsil.

Certified fard copies

For a bank loan, court case or registry, you may need a signed copy of the fard. The digitally signed jamabandi from Easy Jamabandi carries a QR code that can be scanned to check it. Signed copies are also issued at Fard Kendras in tehsil offices and at Sewa Kendras. We could not confirm a current state-wide fee for counter copies, so check it at the centre before you apply.

Easy Registry: property registration in Punjab

Since 27 November 2025, Punjab’s Easy Registry lets you register a property at any sub-registrar office within the same district, not only the office for that area. You can get the sale deed drafted online or at a Sewa Kendra for ₹500 and receive WhatsApp updates at each stage. After registration, the intkal should follow automatically. For local rates, see our collector rate Mohali guide and the stamp duty in India guide.

Land units in Punjab

Punjab records state area in kanal and marla: 20 marla make 1 kanal and 8 kanal make 1 acre. The size of a marla in square feet can differ between rural records and urban schemes, so confirm the local measure. Convert with our kanal to marla and marla to square feet tools.

Before you buy land in Punjab

Match the seller’s name, share, khewat and khasra numbers in the latest jamabandi with the draft sale deed.
Check the mutation history to see how the seller got the land.
Search the roznamcha and court case records for loans, stays or disputes.
Where there are many co-owners, make sure every seller’s share is covered.
Look up the khasra on the cadastral map and get the land measured on the ground.
Get an encumbrance certificate and check the land use before you pay.
Subscribe to the land alert if you live away from the land.
