What is reference number in patta?

Are you planning to buy a property in Tamil Nadu? Then you must know that it is important to check the Patta number. Before telling you what is reference number in Patta, I would like to tell you what a patta number is and how to obtain it.

Patta is a legal document that holds the information of land and who is the owner of that particular piece of land. Patta is issued by the government of Tamil Nadu in favor of the right to records in the name of the owner of the plot.

• Name of the owner

• Patta number 

• Subdivision and survey number 

• Location of the land 

• Tax details of the land

The normal procedure is to request the village tehsildar to get the patta of your land. You can also get a patta number online on the tnreginet website. The reference number in patta can be found by applying to the Tehsildar of the village showing the title deed of the land and other valid proof of the land.

You can find a reference number in your Patta Chitta extract. The land survey document provides a reference number to each piece of land and through that reference number, you can get all the information related to the land. 

Hey Buddy,

Thank you, Sanjana for sharing Patta number example here. I realised that a Patta is a crucial legal document that serves as an income record for a particular plot of land. I was researching the same thing and learned a few things which I can share with you.

The government issues the Patta in the name of the property owner. The phrase "Record of Rights (ROR)" is another name for it. Records kept in a Patta include the;

• owner's name.

• The Patta number.

• subdivision and survey number.

• Names of the corresponding village, taluk, and district.

• the size or surface area of the land.

• tax information.

• Whether or not the area is dry or wet.

Though Charu mentioned how to know Patta number, I can explain the process in detail, as I have gone through the same;

• Visit the 

website.

• Click on "Verify Patta"

• After entering the Reference Number, select "Submit."

• The screen will display the Patta Chitta data, and you can check the Patta number.

Each land record is given a land reference number, an eight-digit computer-generated identifying number, by the Land Registry. To make it simple to identify and quickly retrieve land records, the PRN is shown on the land register.

I would like to conclude my discussion here about the Patta number example. I hope this helps:)

A Patta Chitta is a record related to land revenues that represent land ownership. A Patta register is a record maintained in a Taluk office and it mentions the portions of ownership of a whole landholding. Chitta is a part of Patta that offers land ownership details belonging to a specific person. Now, let me tell you how to obtain Chitta/Patta extract details and what a patta chitta reference number is:

You can visit the official government website to view the Chitta/Patta extract details. You will be required to enter the Village, taluk, district, and Patta Number.

After that, you are required to enter one of the Sub Division Numbers/Survey Number under the Patta. After entering the correct details, the Chitta Extract copy will appear on the page.

While showing the details, a Reference Number (with the format 23/01/001/00002/99999) will be obtained. You can also view it in the Chitta Extract’s footnote. In case any agency or organization wants to view your Patta details, then you can give them the Reference Number. With this reference number, they will be able to verify your Chitta Extract.

I hope now you know what is reference number in land records.
