How to Check Khasra Number in Punjab — Complete Guide 2026

The Patwari surveys the village, draws the Shajra (cadastral map), and gives each parcel a number. That number sticks to the land permanently — it shows up in the Jamabandi, Fard, mutation records, and registry deeds. No Khasra number means no way to pull the ownership history or check for pending court cases on the plot.

The record covers more than a plot ID. Owner name, area in Kanals and Marlas, land type (agricultural, Gair Mumkin, Barani, Nehri), crops grown, irrigation source, tenancy status — all of it sits under that one number. When land gets split after a sale or partition, sub-numbers appear: 127 turns into 127/1 and 127/2. Banks use it for loan checks, courts pull it in title disputes, and government departments refer to it during acquisition proceedings.

Any Khasra record in Punjab can be pulled in minutes on the PLRS portal at jamabandi.punjab.gov.in — no login needed. Keep the district, tehsil, village name, and Khasra number ready before starting.
