Question about WB land reforms
4 months ago
Recently our ancestral home's ownership was updated from my granny to my mother's name. We ave received the certified deed from WB registration, now what's left to do I hear is get Porcha and mutation document. But what comes first Porcha or Mutation? Can it be done through online?
A.Dear Client,
Property mutation (transfer of title) is a mandatory process in all legal transactions involving the property. You will be issued a land porcha if your property falls under the Panchayat area. On the other hand, you will not be issued a porcha if your land falls under the municipality area. Once you submit your application for mutation, along with the required documents, it might take the municipal body 15 to 30 days to update the record, after which it would issue a property mutation certificate to you. In case of land mutation, it will take at least a month for the records to show change in land ownership. The mutation process is made within six months from the date of taking possession or assumption of charge if no objection from any person is filed during the proceeding. The certified copy of mutation order can be obtained within five days from the date of application. The mutation of property is now done following online method,which works faster then offline method.

A.Dear Client,
In the process of updating the ownership of your ancestral home, both Porcha and Mutation are important steps, and the sequence may vary depending on the local administrative procedures. Generally, the Porcha, which is a record of rights or land record, establishes ownership, while Mutation is the official change of ownership in the land revenue records.
Typically, the Porcha is obtained first, and it is advisable to check with the local land revenue office or municipality to understand the specific order of procedures in your jurisdiction. Once the Porcha is obtained, the Mutation process can be initiated to officially update the ownership records.
While some states in India have introduced online services for land-related transactions, the availability and extent of these services may vary. Check with the relevant local authority or municipality to inquire about the possibility of completing the Porcha and Mutation processes online. If online services are available, it can streamline the procedures and save time. Otherwise, you may need to visit the respective offices in person to complete these transactions. Ensure you have all the necessary documents, including the certified deed from the registration, to facilitate a smooth process. Consider consulting with a local legal professional for specific guidance based on the regulations in your area.
Thankyou
