Frequently asked
How do I check encumbrance certificate for property in Puri?
Puri land records are hosted on the Bhulekh Odisha portal (bhulekh.ori.nic.in). Search by Khatiyan, plot number, or owner name within the relevant tehsil. Cross-reference with the Encumbrance Certificate (Form 25) issued by the SRO before any transaction.
Is online encumbrance certificate sufficient or do I need a physical visit?
Online Bhulekh data is admissible but not always conclusive — Odisha title verification typically reconciles the online RoR (Khatiyan) with the Encumbrance Certificate and physical Sale Deed CCs. Puri's SRO and Tahasildar offices remain the source of truth for legal admissibility.
What does BhoomiScan add for Puri property buyers?
BhoomiScan reads the EC, ROR, and Sale Deed CCs together, flags chain-of-title gaps, and emits an advocate-grade verification report in five minutes. Free for the first scan; transparent per-case pricing thereafter.
