Pahani / RTC / Record of Rights — plain-language guide
Find and check your Pahani online, state by state
Pahani (also called RTC, ROR or Adangal depending on the state) is your land record — used for loans, sale, mutation and crop details. This guide walks you through the exact steps on each state's official portal.
What is a Pahani, in plain language?
Pahani is the local name — used in Karnataka, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh — for the land record that shows who holds a piece of agricultural land, its survey number, extent, soil type and crop details. Other Indian states keep the same idea under a different name: 7/12 in Maharashtra, Khatauni in Uttar Pradesh, Patta in Tamil Nadu.
Where the Pahani is used
Bank loans against agricultural land, property sale due-diligence, mutation after inheritance or purchase, crop-insurance claims, and government scheme applications.
What you'll need before you start
District, taluk/mandal, hobli/division and village name, plus either the survey number, owner name, or Pattadar Passbook number.
Pick your state
Each state runs its own portal and its own naming for the same document. Open your state's guide for exact click-by-click steps.
Common questions
Open your state's guide above, enter your district/mandal/village and survey number (or Pattadar Passbook number) on the official portal, then use the on-screen download or PDF option. Each state's guide has exact screenshots for this.
Viewing your Pahani on the official state portal is free. A digitally-signed copy (needed for bank loans) usually carries a small government fee, paid on the official portal itself — never on a third-party site.
No. This is an independent, plain-language guide. We link you to each state's official portal to complete the actual lookup there — we never collect, store or display anyone's land records ourselves.
