A. Dear client,
Generally, one can apply for an Encumbrance Certificate online but in West Bengal you do not have the option of that facility.
An individual looking to obtain an EC in West Bengal has to avail it through an offline process. Only some states provide online support for EC, which excludes West Bengal. The offline EC issuance process may take 15 to 30 days based on inspection and verification of the documents produced and the particular land.
