What do you mean by Patta

A Patta is a legal document issued by the Government in the name of the actual owner of a particular plot of land. It can also be issued for lands having buildings or individual houses etc. constructed on them. But for these types of properties, it can be shown that the property is being continuously occupied which is not possible for any barren tract of land.

In most cases, it can be obtained from the Tehsildar’s office in the concerned administrative district. If there are several owners for a single property, separate Pattas will not be issued. In such cases, there will be one Patta with the name of all the co-owners mentioned clearly. It is also important to remember that Patta will not be issued for lands having undivided shares.

The Importance of Patta

It is a very important record of ownership. Transactions involving the land in question require a Patta. It can also be used to establish the right of ownership in a court of law. Compensation from land acquired by the Government is a major problem.

But it can be easily solved if the owner of the property has a Patta in her/his name. This proves, beyond doubt, ownership of the property and remuneration could be obtained without much of a hassle.   

In some cases, Patta can be transferred from one person to the other. These are usually special situations where, for example, there is no Will drafted by a person before his death. In such cases, the next of kin are automatically entitled to the Patta and can apply for the transfer to their name(s).

A convenient feature of Patta is the fact that it need not be renewed from time-to-time. A renewal must be done only after a transfer or a transaction has taken place with respect to the property.

Difference between Society Patta Properties and JDA Approved Properties

In India, the apartment lifestyle has practically taken control of the housing sector. However, some people in tier 2 and tier 3 cities still prefer to buy plots and build their own homes according to their requirements. To put together a house, you should think about a few things carefully, such as the cost, financial assistance, benefits, and so on.

A property approved by the Jaipur Development Authority, will have concerns with basic facility availability and legal documents of the property, however, the same can be used as collateral for a loan subject to fulfillment of mortgage condition as per law. A JDA approved land, on the other hand, comes with all amenities and is a fine choice for homeowners.

It is important to ascertain that the Society Patta Property is free from all encumbrance and contributions. You can do so by referring to the encumbrance certificate, which will highlight any issues or outstanding debts.

Similarly, property papers should be examined by advocate to ensure that they are not linked to any frauds to avoid being duped by landowners. As a practice, every document must be thoroughly verified prior to use to ensure the safety and security of all parties involved.
