What is Khasra B1 Nakal in Chhattisgarh?

Definition

The Khasra B1 Nakal is the official revenue record issued by the Chhattisgarh Revenue Department through the Bhuiyan portal. It is the primary land document under the state's land revenue administration, recording plot-level ownership, land classification, and area for every parcel in the state.

Chhattisgarh uses two linked documents under its revenue system. The Khasra (P-II) is the plot-level record: it captures the survey number, the size of each parcel, the land type (agricultural, irrigated, barren, government), and the registered owner's name. The B1 Khatauni consolidates all Khasra entries held by one owner or family in a village into a single summary sheet. When buyers refer to the "Khasra B1 Nakal," they typically mean both documents together. The Bhuiyan portal, launched by the state Revenue Department in collaboration with the National Informatics Centre, makes both available for free online access.

These records matter for one reason above all others: they tell you who the government recognizes as the owner of a piece of land. A seller may hold a registered sale deed, but if the Khasra B1 still shows the previous owner's name, the mutation has not been completed. That gap is a legal defect. Banks in Chhattisgarh use the B1 Khatauni to verify ownership before processing agricultural loans. The Patwari at the village level is the custodian of these records, and any discrepancy between the physical land and the Bhuiyan entry must be resolved at the Tehsil office before a transaction proceeds.

State-specific note: In Chhattisgarh, the Bhuiyan portal at bhuiyan.cg.nic.in is the authoritative source. Never accept a printed Khasra B1 Nakal from a seller without cross-checking the same data live on the portal.

What Does Khasra B1 Nakal Contain in Chhattisgarh?

The Khasra B1 Nakal carries specific fields that together confirm who owns a parcel, how large it is, and what it can be used for.

Field What it means What to check
Khasra NumberUnique plot identifier in the village revenue mapCross-check against Bhunaksha CG to confirm the plot location on the map.
Owner Name (Khattedar)Name of the registered landholder as per revenue recordsMust match the seller's identity documents exactly; any mismatch signals incomplete mutation
Land AreaTotal area of the parcel in hectares or acresVerify against the sale deed area; discrepancies indicate boundary disputes or encroachment
Land Type / ClassificationCategory of land: agricultural, irrigated, barren, government, forestGovernment- or forest-classified land cannot be sold privately; treat as a hard stop
Irrigation StatusWhether the land is irrigated or un-irrigatedAffects agricultural loan eligibility and land valuation
Bhar (Encumbrance/Burden)Any registered mortgage or lien on the parcelA non-empty Bhar column means the land is pledged; buyer assumes this liability unless cleared
Good sign: The owner's name matches the seller's Aadhaar, the Bhar column is blank, land type shows private agricultural, and the Khasra number appears correctly on the Bhunaksha map.

Common Issues With Khasra B1 Nakal in Chhattisgarh

These are the recurring defects that trap land buyers in Chhattisgarh when they skip portal verification.

Seller name not updated after purchase
When a buyer purchases land but does not complete mutation, the Khasra B1 still shows the previous owner's name. Some sellers then attempt to sell this same land again to a second buyer. The second buyer has no legal standing because government records do not recognize them.
Fix: Check bhuiyan.cg.nic.in direct. If the Khasra B1 shows a different name than the seller's, the mutation must be completed and verified before you pay anything.
Outdated printed copy presented by seller
A Khasra B1 Nakal printed six months ago may no longer reflect the current status. Sellers sometimes present old printouts, especially when a new encumbrance or dispute has been recorded in the interim. Physical copies have no validity date on their face.
Fix: Always run a live check on bhuiyan.cg.nic.in on the day of agreement. Do not accept any copy the seller hands you as final.
Government or forest land listed under private name
In tribal and forested districts of Chhattisgarh, parcels classified as government or forest land occasionally appear with private names in older records due to historical data entry errors. Selling such land is illegal. Buyers who register these parcels face cancellation and have no recourse against the seller.
Fix: Check the land type field in the Bhuiyan record. If it shows "Sarkar" (government) or "Van" (forest), do not proceed regardless of what the seller claims.
Encumbrance recorded in Bhar column not disclosed
A mortgage registered against the parcel appears in the Bhar column of the B1 Khatauni. Sellers in financial distress routinely hide this. A buyer who registers such land takes on the undisclosed liability because the charge follows the property, not the person.
Fix: Check the Bhar column on bhuiyan.cg.nic.in before any agreement is signed. If the column is not empty, demand a no-objection certificate from the lender before proceeding.
Area mismatch between Khasra and sale deed
The area stated in a seller's sale deed sometimes does not match what the Khasra B1 shows. This happens when illegal subdivision has occurred or when adjacent land has been encroached upon. The Khasra B1 figure, not the deed, is what the Revenue Department recognizes.
Fix: Compare the area in the Bhuiyan record against the sale deed figure. Any difference must be resolved at the Tehsil before registration.
Khasra number not visible on Bhunaksha map
Some Khasra numbers in semi-urban areas around Raipur, Bilaspur, and Durg have not yet been digitized on the Bhunaksha mapping layer. Sellers use this gap to obscure boundary disputes or encroachments on neighboring government land.
Fix: If the Khasra number does not appear on the Bhunaksha CG map, visit the Patwari office and request a physical boundary verification before proceeding.

Why Khasra B1 Nakal Matters for Land Buyers in Chhattisgarh

The Khasra B1 Nakal is the government's record of who owns what; every other document in a Chhattisgarh land transaction draws its credibility from it.

📋
The state's primary ownership proof
No other document in Chhattisgarh overrides what the Khasra B1 shows. A sale deed transfers title between two parties, but it is the Revenue Department's Bhuiyan record that the government, courts, and banks treat as definitive. If the B1 does not show the seller's name, the sale deed alone is not enough.
⚠
Bhuiyan portal verification is mandatory before purchase
The Chhattisgarh Revenue Department provides free, real-time access to Khasra B1 records on bhuiyan.cg.nic.in for this reason. Skipping this check and relying on documents the seller provides has led buyers to purchase disputed, encumbered, or government land across multiple districts.
🏦
Required for agricultural loans Banks and cooperative credit societies in Chhattisgarh use the B1 Khatauni as the primary document to establish ownership before sanctioning agricultural loans
A parcel with an uncleared Bhar entry or an unmatched owner name will be rejected outright. Buyers who want to use their land as collateral must ensure the Bhuiyan record is clean first.
🔍
Chhattisgarh-specific: Tribal land protection risk Chhattisgarh has significant scheduled tribal area coverage under the Chhattisgarh Land Revenue Code
Land in these zones cannot be transferred to non-tribals without government permission. The land type and ownership classification in the Khasra B1 are the first signals of whether a parcel falls under this restriction. A buyer who does not check risks a void transaction.
Red flag: If the seller asks you to rely on a physical printout rather than letting you check bhuiyan.cg.nic.in live, or if the Khasra B1 owner name does not match the seller's name, stop the transaction immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Khasra B1 Chhattisgarh 2026, and why does a buyer need it?
The Khasra B1 Nakal is Chhattisgarh's official revenue record showing the registered owner's name, land type, total area, and any encumbrances for a plot. It is the document the Revenue Department treats as definitive. Every land buyer must verify it on [bhuiyan.cg.nic.in](http://bhuiyan.cg.nic.in) before signing any agreement.
What is the difference between Khasra and B1 Khatauni in Chhattisgarh?
Khasra (P-II) is the plot-level record showing details for one survey number. B1 Khatauni consolidates all plots owned by one person or family in a village. Both are available on bhuiyan.cg.nic.in. For a purchase, check the Khasra first, then confirm the B1 shows the seller as the current recorded owner.
How do I download B1 Nakal from the Bhuiyan portal in Chhattisgarh?
Go to bhuiyan.cg.nic.in, select "B1/PII Prapt Karein" from the Land Information menu, enter your district, tehsil, and village, then search by Khasra number or owner name. The document downloads as a PDF at no charge. Install Hindi fonts on your device beforehand.
Is the B1 Nakal downloaded from Bhuiyan legally valid in Chhattisgarh?
The downloaded copy is valid for reference and verification. For bank loan applications, court submissions, or property registration, a certified copy signed and stamped by the Patwari or Tehsil office is generally required.
What does the Bhar column in Khasra B1 mean?
"Bhar" means burden or encumbrance. A non-empty Bhar column indicates the land has a registered mortgage or lien against it. This liability follows the property, not the seller. If the Bhar column shows any entry, demand written clearance from the lender before proceeding with the purchase.
Can the Khasra B1 show government land under a private name in Chhattisgarh?
Yes, and it happens in forested and tribal districts due to historical data errors. The land type field in the Bhuiyan record will show "Sarkar" or "Van" if the parcel is government or forest land. Selling such land is illegal. Check the classification field and do not proceed if it shows a non-private category.
Can I use the Khasra B1 for a bank loan in Chhattisgarh?
Yes. Banks and agricultural credit societies in Chhattisgarh use the B1 Khatauni to confirm ownership before sanctioning loans. The Bhar column must be blank, and the owner's name must match the applicant. A parcel with an encumbrance entry or name mismatch will be rejected at the loan processing stage.
How do I get a certified copy of Khasra B1 from the Patwari in Chhattisgarh?
Visit the Patwari for the village where the land is located. Submit a written application with the Khasra number, village details, and your identity proof. The Patwari issues a stamped, certified copy.
