Questions Patna buyers ask us

How much does a property registry cost in Patna?

Since the 18 June 2026 notification, stamp duty on a sale deed in Bihar is 7% (6.6% when a man sells to a woman), plus a 2% registration fee. Both are charged on the deal value or the MVR (government minimum value), whichever is higher.

How many square feet is 1 kattha in Patna?

In Patna, 1 kattha is about 1,361 sq ft, and 1 kattha = 20 dhur, so 1 dhur is about 68 sq ft. Always go by the area written in your deed and the khatiyan.

How can I check jamabandi and khatiyan online?

Jamabandi is on the Bihar Bhumi portal (biharbhumi.bihar.gov.in): choose district, anchal (circle), halka and mauza, then search by khata, khesra or name. Scanned khatiyan copies are on the Bhu-Abhilekh portal (bhuabhilekh.bihar.gov.in). Our step-by-step guide shows each screen.

Can I build a house in Patna's green belt?

Only under strict conditions. In the Urban Agriculture zone of the Patna Master Plan 2031 a house may cover at most 20% of the plot and be at most 7 m tall; in the Conservation zone plotted housing is not allowed. Check the zone of the exact plot before paying.

Is the first consultation really free?

Yes. Send your question or the plot details on WhatsApp and Prem ji will tell you what to check first. Paid work, like a full verification report, is quoted upfront.

Have a plot or flat in mind?

Send the khata/khesra number, the location or a photo of the papers on WhatsApp. Prem ji will tell you what to check before you pay.
