Buying in West Bengal? Your khatian names a right holder — it doesn't prove the deed chain behind it.
The records here
Your documents are in Bengali. The engine reads Bengali.
Your khatian, record of rights, sale deeds and partition deeds — read in their own language, with no translation step and no document set aside because of its script. The state's land records portal (Bhuchitra) shows the entries; the deeds behind them are what the check reads.
What the record won't tell you.
A record of rights entry is a starting point, not proof. Tenancy rights — including the protection a bargadar (sharecropper) holds under the West Bengal Land Reforms Act — can exist outside the register, and unregistered family arrangements routinely sit beneath a clean khatian. Registration records a transaction; it does not prove ownership — the Supreme Court said so in 2025.
If a document is missing, your preliminary report names it, names the check it unlocks, and names the office holding it — the Sub-Registrar's office for deeds and certified copies, the land records office (BL&LRO) for khatian entries.

FAQ — West Bengal
The khatian is in the seller's father's name. Is that enough?
A khatian is a revenue record. It shows who the records recognise, not whether the conveyances behind that recognition were valid — especially where the land passed by inheritance or an unregistered family arrangement. Upload the khatian, the deeds, and any succession documents; the report shows you where the chain holds and where it doesn't.
The land has sharecroppers cultivating it. Does that affect the title?
It can. A bargadar's protected status under the West Bengal Land Reforms Act does not depend on being written in the deed you're buying. The check reads the record for tenancy entries and the chain for anything that created them, and the report tells you what it found.
It's the property check where you see everything it checked.
