About Mallasamuthiram Sub-Registrar Office

Mallasamuthiram Sub-Registrar Office (SRO) is the official property registration authority serving parts of Namakkal district under the administrative Salem zone in Tamil Nadu. For buyers, sellers, and legal heirs dealing with land or building transactions in and around Mallasamuthiram, this SRO is the primary office where documents are registered and records are maintained.

The Mallasamuthiram SRO has jurisdiction over 41 villages and covers a large land-record footprint with approximately 17,747 survey numbers. This makes it a key registration hub for agricultural lands, plotted developments, village house sites, and other property transactions within its limits.
