Patta
is the record of land right in Tamil Nadu. It contains entries relating to
ownership and extent of land holding. Patta
is always issued in Hectares/Ares for Village Properties (Computerised Patta) and
in Ares/Sq.mts for City Properties.
Computerised
Patta are being issued all over the State of Tamil Nadu for all Village
Properties since 2008. However for Properties Situated within Municipality or
City, Pattas are still issued manually. The
Computerised Patta bears the Signature of Tahsildar or Head Quarters Deputy
Tahsildar or Zonal Deputy Tahsildar. Computerised
Pattas are issued for Non Corporation, Non Municipal and Non Natham lands. The
village name, taluk and survey numbers will be clearly mentioned in a
Computerised Patta. The Survey along with sub division numbers, Nanjai land
extent, Punjai land extent and other land extent will be mentioned in a tabular
form. Date of issue of Computerised Patta will always be mentioned in the top left side. The emblem of
Tamil Nadu Government will also be reflected in the top of the Computerised
Patta. English Alphabets or English
Initials will not be used in a Computerised Patta and all the details are
mentioned only in tamil. Moreover in
a Computerised Patta only the name of the Village will be mentioned and the
revenue village number will not be mentioned.
Town Survey Land Extract/Field Extract is the Patta equivalent issued
in Corporation and Municipal areas. Such Pattas
are issued manually and will mention the name of the street, Door number of the
Property, owners name and will mention the extent of land in Hectares/Ares/Sq.mts
or in Grounds or Sq.mts. (Earlier they were issued in Grounds but nowadays they
are only issued in Hec/Ares/Sq.mts). These Pattas bears
the Signature of Draughtsman, Head Surveyor and Tahsildar and also a small
sketch map of the Property is reflected in the manual Town Survey Land Extract/Field Extract.
How to obtain Town Survey Land Extract/Field
Extract (ie manual Patta issued in all the Corporation Limits in the State of
Tamil Nadu including Chennai) ?
Firstly, an application
in the prescribed format should be submitted to Taluk Reception Officer
requesting Patta. The copy of title deeds along with preceeding parent
documents and previous patta (if available) along with Encumbrance Certificates
for a period of 30 years should be enclosed along with the application form. A
receipt will be issued acknowledging the receipt of the Patta application form.
Subsequently one has to approach the concerned Surveyor (Sub Inspector of
Survey) who will personally visit and measure the Property. If the site does
not involve any Sub division, the Surveyor will immediately put up a note to
the Taluk Sub Inspector of Survey (also known as TDS) who in turn will forward
the note to the Deputy Inspector of Survey (Head Surveyor). The Head Surveyor
will take approvals from Head Quarters Deputy Tahsildars or Zonal Deputy
Tahsildars and the Tahsildar and orders will be passed for issuance of Patta. subsequently
the applicant will have to remit a sum of Rs.20/- in State Bank of India,
Treasury Branch and hand over the Challan back to the Taluk Office and the
Taluk Assistant will fill up the Patta (manual extract) and the Land Records
Draughtsman will draw the sketch from FMB Extract and he will also officially
sign in the reverse side of the manual Patta and the Deputy Inspector of Survey
(Head Surveyor), Head Quarters Deputy Tahsildar or Zonal Deputy Tahsildar and
the concerned Tahsildar will also have to officially sign in the Patta. If the
Site require, sub division, the same process will be followed. However
initially the applicant will have to remit a sum of Rs.120/- in State Bank of
India, Treasury Branch and an order for sub division of land (8A Extract record
changes) will have to be issued by the Tahsildar prior to issuing orders for
issuance of Patta. The manual Pattas issued in Tamil Nadu for City
and Municipality Jurisdictional Properties will soon become Computerised in the
middle of this year. At present, Chennai City has 10 Taluk offices (earlier
there were 5 Taluks)
How to obtain Computerised Pattas (issued for Non Corporation, Non
Municipal and Non Natham lands) in Tamil Nadu?
Tamil Nadu was the third State in India which had computerised most of its land
records in the year 2008. (Karnataka was the first state followed by Andhra Pradesh).
Earlier an applicant had to approach the concerned Tahsildar
office to apply for Patta and the procedure mentioned above for obtaining city
Patta is almost similar to the procedure for obtaining Computerised Patta (barring
preparation of sketch by Draughtsman- no sketch of the Property is available in
a Computerised Patta). However with effect from the year 2011, Government of
Tamil Nadu had changed the procedure for obtaining Computerised Patta wherein
an applicant will now have to approach the concerned Village Administrative
Officer (VAO) on every Mondays and submit the application for issuance of Patta
which will be acknowledged by the VAO. In cases
which do not involve sub-divisions, applicants will have to approach the taluk
office on second Fridays with the original documents for verification and
obtain Patta. For cases involving sub-divisions the applicants will have to
receive the order of patta transfer on the fourth Friday from the date of
submission of application (after the Surveyor makes site inspection). The
applicant has to pay the sub division fee on the day of receipt of the order
from the Tahsildar. This work would be completed within 30 days.
