What is UP Bhulekh?
Definition
UP Bhulekh (upbhulekh.gov.in) is Uttar Pradesh's land records portal under the revenue machinery, serving the khatauni, khasra details and the Real-Time Khatauni's live accounts, with certified copies through tehsils and the Jan Seva Kendra network. The registered chain, certified search and circle rates live on IGRSUP; maps on UP Bhu Naksha; mutation and conversion run through the tehsil and revenue-court machinery.Hold one image: a ledger next door to a courtroom. The ledger is the khatauni, accounts with named holders and stated fractions; the courtroom is the revenue machinery, where every change arrives as a numbered Namantaran case and every dispute waits its turn. UP diligence reads both buildings: the account for what the record says, the case-list for what is being argued about it.
The system's strength is reach with a modern edge: every village's account viewable free, the khasra's field facts alongside, certified copies from a service-centre network that put counters everywhere, and the Real-Time Khatauni converting the old undivided blur into determined shares that update as orders land.
Its boundaries are clean: deeds, the certified search and circle rates belong to IGRSUP; the drawn plot to UP Bhu Naksha; conversion to the Section 80 machinery beneath the master plans; and contested matters to the revenue courts, whose queue is its own fact of life.
UP Bhulekh Uttar Pradesh and IGRSUP: two machines, one file
Revenue and registration answer different questions, and the revenue courts hold a third set. Route each to its machine.
| Question | Machine | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Who holds this plot, in what fraction? | UP Bhulekh (revenue) | Khatauni, Real-Time Khatauni |
| What is the ground, who works it? | The field register | Khasra / gata details |
| What was signed against it? | IGRSUP (registration) | Certified search / EC |
| What will duty be computed on? | IGRSUP (valuation) | Circle rates, published |
| How does the account change? | Tehsil & revenue courts | The Namantaran case |
| Where exactly is the plot? | UP Bhu Naksha | The village sheet, by khasra |
The habit: account questions to Bhulekh, money questions to IGRSUP, change questions to the case number, and the fraction question before all of them.
All UP Bhulekh services, with a guide for each
Nine guides across the machines. The IGRSUP badge marks the registration side; everything else runs through the revenue, map and tehsil machinery.
Records & search
4 guidesThe account, the field diary, the live edition, and the name route that finds one khata among millions.
The account: holders, fractions, khasra list and the remarks that warn.
Khasra / Gata detailsThe field's diary: area, category, seasons and who was actually there.
Real-Time KhatauniThe live, share-determined account in covered villages, with unique codes.
Search by owner nameCommon names narrowed by village and father's name to one khata.
Registration (IGRSUP)
1 guideThe certified search that UP actually issues, with the circle rates beside it.
Change & conversion
2 guidesThe Namantaran case with its two tracks, and the Section 80 route beneath the plans.
A numbered proceeding: undisputed cases run fast, objections go to the revenue courts.
NA / conversion (S.80)The Section 80 declaration, beneath master plans and authority sanctions.
Maps & copies
2 guidesThe village sheets, and the certified copies the institutions act on.
Getting started on the portal
Three keys open everything: the khata, the khasra, and the pairing of holder with father's name.
Khata, khasra/gata, and the father's-name pairing
The khata numbers the account, the khasra or gata numbers the plots, and the holder-plus-father's-name pairing cuts through UP's namesake density. Old papers may speak in gata numbers or pre-consolidation keys; the tehsil's correspondence records translate. Any old receipt, copy or case paper carries enough of these keys to unlock the rest.
| Step | Online | Offline |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Access | Open UP Bhulekh; district, tehsil, village | The Lekhpal reads the account's shorthand at sight |
| 2. Identify the parcel | Search by khata, khasra or name + father's name | Tehsil counters issue certified copies |
| 3. Use the service | Read shares, remarks and the fasli year | Jan Seva Kendras serve nearly every village |
| 4. Keep evidence | IGRSUP for the search, rates and deed copies | Revenue courts hold the contested cases |
Offline Uttar Pradesh runs through the village Lekhpal, the tehsil and its courts, the Jan Seva Kendra network for copies and applications, and the sub-registrar offices on the IGRSUP side.

The order a careful buyer runs these in
UP rewards a fixed order: account, field, chain, sheet, gates, and only then price, paper and the case.
- Read the account, fractions first. The khatauni's holders and shares, its khasra list, its tenure class, and every remark chased to its file. Guide: Khatauni guide
- Read the field's diary beside it. The khasra's seasons and possession entries, tested against what your site visit actually saw. Guide: Khasra guide
- Run the certified search. IGRSUP's chain across the span the purchase needs, reconciled with the account entry by entry. Guide: EC guide
- Match the sheet to the ground. The Bhu Naksha plot walked with neighbours, and any drift surveyed through the tehsil before price. Guide: Bhu Naksha
- Settle use and the duty arithmetic. The Section 80 and designation position, and the circle rate the counter will compute against. Guide: S.80 guide
- After the deed, follow the case home. The Namantaran by its number to the order, and the amended, certified khatauni that closes the file. Guide: Namantaran guide
Common issues across the portal
Four snags account for most stalled UP files.
Shares read hopefully, co-holders met at registration. The column is arithmetic; count the signatures it requires.
Remarks citing orders nobody read. Every remark has a file; pull it before the advance, not after.
The khasra's seasons naming someone the pitch didn't. Resolve in writing with counsel; possession has weight here.
Deeds registered, no case or no order. Follow the number to the amended, certified account.
UP Bhulekh Uttar Pradesh: rules buyers should know
The account's fractions are the seller's real stake, and the Real-Time Khatauni states them live. Price the fraction that exists.
IGRSUP's certified search is the EC here, twelve years standard, longer on request. Purchases earn the longer span.
A contested Namantaran is a revenue case with a queue. Counsel in, payments paused, the order sets the timeline.
Duty computes on the higher of price and the published rate. Look it up before the negotiation, not at the counter.
