Overview
Ladakh's land record system is based on cadastral surveys that assign Khasra (plot) numbers to each parcel. However, unlike more developed regions, Ladakh has limited online access to these records. Most surveys are maintained in paper form or are being gradually digitized. The UT Revenue Department holds the authoritative records.
Ladakh's terrain, climate, and population density mean that many land parcels have sparse documentation compared to other Indian regions. If you own land in Ladakh, you'll likely need to visit the Revenue Department office in person. 1acre is building map-based survey search for Ladakh—coming soon.

One plot, many names — what ‘survey number’ means here
1. Khasra Number:
The cadastral field or plot number assigned during survey; the unique identifier for a parcel in Ladakh's revenue system.
2. Cadastral Survey:
The systematic mapping and measurement of land parcels; in Ladakh, surveys are often older and subject to ongoing updates.
3. Revenue Record:
The official document maintained by the UT Revenue Department showing ownership, area, and boundaries of surveyed land.
4. Naksha (Revenue Map):
The official map showing surveyed plots in a region; used for boundary verification and dispute resolution.
