Held by the relevant urban local body. A door number containing a comma or a stray separator can shift the search to a different local body entirely, returning a confident result for the wrong town.

What it proves
- That the structure is assessed on the municipal roll and in whose name
- Whether tax is paid up to date or arrears are outstanding
- The assessment or khata identifier used by the municipality for that property
What it does not prove
- Ownership. A tax receipt evidences possession and the payment of a civic charge, never title
- That the construction is authorised. Municipalities assess and tax unauthorised construction as well, and a receipt is not a sanction
How to obtain it
- 1Search the urban local body portal by assessment or property identification number, door number or owner name
- 2Take the receipt for the current year and confirm no arrears, since arrears attach to the property
Where people get caught
- Door numbers are re-issued and re-sequenced by municipalities. A door-number search can land on a different property in the same ward, so match the assessment number rather than the door number
- Unpaid municipal dues generally follow the property to the buyer, which is why arrears matter to you and not only to the seller
- A tax record in a deceased relative's name signals an incomplete succession, not a defective municipal record
One record is never the answer
Every record on this page answers one narrow question. A title position needs the registered deed chain, the revenue record, the prohibited-property register, the litigation search and the municipal record read against each other, because the defects that cost buyers money live in the disagreements between them. LegiScore runs those searches across 14 states, a lawyer reviews the output, and the property is graded from AAA to C.
