Bengaluru: BBMP simplifies e-Khata process: Here's how to get it without Aadhar card

By Vinaykumar Patil | First Published Nov 13, 2024, 1:51 PM IST

BBMP has simplified e-Khata applications, allowing residents to download a draft version and finalize it later if not urgently needed. Alternatives to Aadhaar, such as a Passport or Voter ID, are accepted. Zone-wise helplines and online resources are available for assistance.

The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) has simplified the process of obtaining the e-Khata for property owners within its jurisdiction. Now, residents who don't immediately need to sell or transfer their properties at the Sub-Registrar office need not rush for the final Ikhata. They can simply download a draft version of the e-Khata and later finalize it at their convenience. The BBMP also allows those without an Aadhaar card to secure their e-Khata by submitting alternative documents.

For citizens who do not possess an Aadhaar card, the BBMP has made provisions to accept other government-issued IDs. Applicants can submit any one of the following documents at the office of the Assistant Revenue Officer to obtain their e-Khata:
- Passport
- Driving License
- Voter ID Card

Online entry requirements

To apply for e-Khata online, citizens need to input a few key numbers:
