E-Katha application in Karnataka E-Katha application in Karnataka

2 months ago

I purchased 2 30X40 plots 20 years ago near Bangalore ( Anekal Taluk). But these were registered as a single plot ( 40X60) in my sale deed. The plot numbers were also mentioned in the document. Since I need to apply for E-Katha to pay taxes online, I was told that before applying E-Katha, I need to do a rectification of separating the plots as 2 30X40 and only then I can apply for E-Katha. Could you please let me know if this is true and is it necessary for me to do the rectification process or not.

A.Dear Client,

A rectification deed is a legal document designed to correct errors or inaccuracies in documents such as sale deeds and title deeds. It becomes essential when there are mistakes or anomalies that affect the record or deed, particularly when applying for an E-Khata. Approval from a sub-registrar is contingent upon establishing that the original document indeed contains an error.

For a rectification deed to be registered, both parties involved in the contract must consent to the proposed revisions. This necessitates their presence at the sub-registrar's office during the registration process. If the other party is unavailable, an alternative approach involves filing a civil suit before the court under Section 26 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963.

This legal avenue is available to address situations where the real intention of the involved parties is not accurately reflected in the document due to a bona fide mistake. The law provides relief to parties in such cases, acknowledging and rectifying unintentional errors.

A.Dear Client,
A rectification deed is a legal instrument that allows you to correct any errors or mistakes in documents like sale deeds and title deeds and it is essentially required in case any mistake or anomaly appears on the face of the record/deed to make an owner apply for E-Khata. A sub-registrar will only approve your request for rectification if he is persuaded that the original document included an error. Both parties to the contract must consent to the revisions requested and attend at the sub-office registrar's for the rectification deed to be registered. Alternatively, in the absence of the other party, you may file a civil suit before the court under Section 26 of the Specific Relief Act 1963. In case the real intention of the party involved is not properly reflected in the document, the law provides relief to parties because of a bonafide mistake. Reach out to an Advocate for guidance and steps.
