Find the owner of a property from a pin on the map
Drop a pin on the plot or paste a Google Maps link. The parcel under the pin is found on the cadastral map, then the register that covers it is read: patta and chitta for village land, the town survey register inside a town. You get the recorded owner and the survey number.

- The parcel and its owner in one step, not two
- The right register chosen for you, rural or town survey
- No name at all when the survey is split and the pin cannot say which sub-division it is
- Nothing charged when the register names nobody
1 creditCharged only when the register names an owner. A split survey that needs its sub-division, a parcel with no digitised owner, and a search that fails cost nothing.

Owner at a pin, briefly
The cadastral map is the survey map of land parcel boundaries, each parcel labelled with its survey number. It is how a pin on the ground is turned into a survey number.
- Two steps
- Parcel, then owner
The cadastral map says which parcel the pin is on, and the right register, village or town, is then read for its owner.
- A split survey
- No guessing
When the survey has sub-divisions with different owners and the pin cannot say which, no name is shown. You pick the sub-division and ask again.
- Charged
- Only on a name
A split survey, a parcel with no digitised owner and a failed search cost nothing.
How to find the owner of a property by location
- 1
Pin the plot itself
Tap inside the plot, not on the road in front. A pin on the neighbour reads the neighbour.
- 2
Press Run
The survey number and the recorded owner come back together.
- 3
Give the sub-division if asked
If the survey is split, the answer lists its sub-divisions. Type yours in and run again.
When it helps with land
Land with no address
A vacant plot you saw from the road has no door number, but a pin on it finds the recorded holder.
Before you call a broker
See whether the name a seller gives matches the one the register records.
Village or town
You do not need to know which register the land is in. The right one is chosen from where the pin falls.
The owner named is who the revenue register records, which is not the same as clear title. Check the registered transactions in the encumbrance certificate before you rely on it.
Questions people ask
How do I find the owner of a property by address?
Find the property on the map above, drop the pin inside the plot and press Run. The survey number is read from the cadastral map and the owner from the revenue register that covers it.
Why does it refuse to name an owner sometimes?
Because the survey is split into sub-divisions with different owners and the pin cannot say which one you mean. Naming one anyway is how a neighbour's name ends up on your screen. Pick the sub-division and ask again.
Is the owner named here the legal owner?
It is who the revenue register records. Title rests on the registered deeds, so confirm against the encumbrance certificate before you rely on it.
It found the parcel but no owner. Why?
Some parcels have no digitised ownership, and the government portal is sometimes down. Neither means the land has no owner, and neither is charged.
Why did it name the wrong plot?
The pin was probably on the road or the next plot. Zoom in on the satellite view and drop the pin well inside the boundary.
What does it cost?
The price is shown above, and it is charged only when the register actually names someone.
