Patta, Chitta & EC: documents every Tamil Nadu land buyer must verify
A practical checklist of the land records you should confirm before paying an advance in Tamil Nadu.
Buying land in Tamil Nadu? Verify these before you pay a rupee:
- Patta — the revenue record proving ownership. Check the name matches the seller.
- Chitta & Adangal — land classification (nanjai/punjai) and cultivation details.
- FMB Sketch — the survey-field measurement book sketch for exact boundaries.
- Encumbrance Certificate (EC) — 13–30 years to confirm the property is free of loans/disputes.
- DTCP/RERA approval — for layouts, confirm the approval number with the authority.
