Gurpreet Singh from Ludhiana needed his Fard (ਫ਼ਰਦ) urgently — a bank loan application required it by the next morning. Three years ago, this meant visiting the Patwari office, waiting in line, and paying unofficial fees. This time, he opened jamabandi.punjab.gov.in on his phone, selected his village, entered his Khasra number, and downloaded a digitally signed Fard in four minutes. No Patwari. No queue. No bribe.
Punjab Land Record 2026 is managed by the Punjab Land Records Society (PLRS) through the official portal jamabandi.punjab.gov.in. The state has digitized 99% of all village land records — making Jamabandi (ਜਮਾਬੰਦੀ), Fard, mutation status, and land maps available online for free, from anywhere.

Common Errors + Fixes
Error: “Village not found” Fix: Village name spelling varies. Try alternate spellings. Or select Tehsil first — village list will narrow down.
Error: “No record found for this Khasra number” Fix: Khasra number may have changed after consolidation or partition. Check with local Patwari or use Owner Name search.
Error: “Captcha incorrect” Fix: Refresh page for new captcha. Use Chrome browser. Zoom in to read captcha clearly.
Error: Portal loading slow Fix: Peak hours are 10am–1pm. Try early morning (before 9am) or after 8pm. Use incognito mode.
Digitally signed Fard not accepted by bank: Fix: This should not happen — digitally signed Fards with QR code are legally valid across Punjab. Show the bank the Punjab Government notification about digital Fard validity. If still rejected, get the Fard attested at the nearest Fard Kendra or Sewa Kendra.
Mutation not updated after 30 days: Fix: Check mutation status online. If “Pending” after 30 days — file a grievance on jamabandi.punjab.gov.in → Grievance Redressal section. Most grievances resolved in 7–15 days.
