Bengaluru’s Suresh Reddy had been trying to get his Khata transferred for 2 years. Every time he visited the ARO office, he was sent away — “come back next week.” In January 2026, he tried bbmpeaasthi.karnataka.gov.in. Applied online in 20 minutes. Got a reference number. Within 3 days — e-Khata issued. No office visit. No middleman. No bribe.
e-Khata (ಇ-ಖಾತಾ) is Karnataka’s digital property ownership document — an electronic version of the traditional Khata certificate. It contains your property details, ownership records, and tax assessments in a digitally signed, legally valid format. Managed by Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) (formerly BBMP) — 25 lakh+ e-Khatas have already been issued in Bengaluru alone.
GBA Revenue department’s clear instruction: “No citizen should visit ARO or any local offices. Visits and contact with officials and middlemen may cause corruption.”

2026 Important Updates
1. BBMP → GBA (Greater Bengaluru Authority) BBMP has been reorganised into Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) with 5 City Corporations — Central, North, East, West, South. Same portal bbmpeaasthi.karnataka.gov.in — different jurisdiction.
2. Faceless, Contactless System — No ARO Visit Under GBA Revenue’s new system — entire process online. FIFD (First-Received-First-Disposed) automatic approval. No need to visit ARO, BDA, or Bengaluru One centres (though Bengaluru One centres can help).
3. 25 Lakh+ e-Khatas Issued Over 25 lakh Bengaluru city e-Khatas viewable at bbmpeaasthi.karnataka.gov.in anytime.
4. Random Allotment System BBMP introduced random allotment to prevent manipulation — applications assigned randomly to AROs. Reduces middlemen influence.
A-Khata vs B-Khata vs e-Khata — Key Difference
| Type | Meaning | Legal Status |
|---|---|---|
| A-Khata | Property fully approved — within BBMP/GBA jurisdiction, approved layout | ✅ Full legal — bank loans, building permits |
| B-Khata | Property in revenue records but NOT fully approved — unauthorized layout | ⚠️ Limited — property tax paid but no building permits |
| e-Khata | Digital version of A-Khata — electronically issued | ✅ Full legal — same as A-Khata |
Important: e-Khata is the digital form of A-Khata — it does NOT convert a B-Khata property to A-Khata. If your property is B-Khata, you must first get it regularized before applying for e-Khata.
