Choose Rural or Natham to view Patta and Chitta details. Choose Urban TSLR to view the Town Survey Land Register extract for a town or city parcel. If you need the urban boundary diagram instead, use the TSLR sketch viewer .
The extract confirms who is taxed and how the land is classified — not who legally owns it. Reconcile every line on the extract against the sale deed and chain of title.
Owner names on the extract match the latest sale deed and the chain of title.
Patta number on the extract matches the seller-supplied patta document.
Survey number and subdivision match the deed schedule exactly.
If a re-survey happened, the old survey number on the extract matches the deed.
Wet / dry / natham / house-site classification matches the deed and FMB.
Extent matches the deed; gaps may indicate partition or government acquisition.
Review the recorded classification; Government or Poramboke entries need authority verification.
Signature date is recent enough; older signed records may have stale ownership.
If any of the patterns below show up on the extract, pause the deal and get a licensed advocate or revenue surveyor to reconcile before paying advance.
Owners on the chitta extract differ from the latest registered sale deed — title transfer may not be registered, ownership is contested.
The search returns no Patta — do not infer the classification; confirm the survey details and check with the revenue office.
Chitta land classification (wet / dry / natham) does not match the sale deed schedule — possible re-classification dispute.
No old survey number on the chitta but the deed references one — either a re-survey was never reconciled, or the deed is for a different parcel.
Chitta extent materially differs from the deed schedule — partition, sub-division, or acquisition was never registered.
Confirm survey number, subdivision, village/town, taluk, and district against the seller-supplied sale deed or patta document before pulling the extract.
Use Rural for agricultural land in revenue villages, Natham for house-site parcels with the same upstream as rural, and Urban TSLR for properties inside town or city limits.
Survey searches use the eServices Chitta or TSLR endpoint. Rural and Natham Patta-number searches resolve a matching land row and then load the same structured Chitta data. Both routes are captcha-free and OTP-free.
Official PortalMatch owner names, relationship, land classification (wet/dry/natham/house-site), and extent against the sale deed and chain of title.
The chitta extract must be reconciled with the Field Measurement Book sketch, Encumbrance Certificate, and the field-level Adangal register before token advance.
The chitta extract is one essential check in a multi-step diligence — never the only one.
| Document | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Patta / Chitta extract | Revenue holder record — who is taxed for the land, land classification, extent, and a registration-order history. |
| View A-Register online | Village land register every Patta is drawn from — survey number, classification, soil, area, and owner at the village level. |
| FMB / TSLR sketch | Survey-level boundary diagram — what the land looks like and where the boundaries sit. |
| Encumbrance Certificate (EC) | Registered transactions against the property at the SRO — separate, complementary check. |
| Sale Deed | The legal title document for the property — primary record of ownership transfer. |

Patta is a Revenue Department record showing the person in whose name the parcel is recorded for revenue purposes. Chitta is the rural revenue record showing land classification (wet/dry/natham) and tax details. Tamil Nadu presents these details together in the Patta-Chitta extract for rural and natham land.
For urban parcels inside municipal / corporation limits, the equivalent document is the Town Survey Land Register (TSLR) extract.
Pull the extract before any token advance, before approaching a bank for a property loan, when the owner of record needs to be verified, or when there is any doubt about whether the patta is in the seller’s name.
It is also useful for resolving partition disputes — the chitta reflects who pays revenue tax, which is one signal of who has been treated as the owner historically.
Rural covers agricultural land in revenue villages (wet/dry classification). Natham covers house-site (settlement) parcels inside revenue villages — same data source as rural, different `landtype` flag (N vs R).
Urban TSLR covers parcels inside town survey areas (municipalities, corporations) and requires ward + block codes in addition to the district / taluk / town cascade.
No. Survey searches use the captcha-free eServices JSON API. Rural and Natham Patta-number searches first resolve a matching survey/subdivision and then use that same structured-data API.
Both search methods return the available Patta, owner, survey, subdivision, extent, tax, and signature fields in the same result template.
The gov-issued verifiable barcode is generated from a reference number. For urban TSLR, the reference number is fully deterministic from cascade codes — so the barcode works end-to-end. Scanning the QR opens the official cert on eservices.tn.gov.in.
For rural and natham, the gov reference number includes a Tamil Nilam database primary key that is only exposed in OTP-rendered HTML. Rather than show a non-functional QR, we display the reference text and the eServices verification URL so SRO offices can verify manually.
No. The chitta extract confirms who is taxed and how the land is classified. Clear title still requires the sale deed, Encumbrance Certificate, FMB sketch verification, and an advocate title opinion.
Treat the chitta as one essential check in a multi-step due diligence — not a standalone proof of marketable title.
