How to Apply for eKhata Online on BBMP Portal

The Karnataka government has introduced the BBMP e-Aasthi portal to make property management in Bengaluru simpler and fully digital. Instead of dealing with long queues, paper files, and multiple office visits, residents can now access one unified online system for everything—Khata certificates, property tax details, mutations, and ownership verification. Launched by Deputy CM D. K. Shivakumar in late 2024, this new system aims to bring more than 25 lakh properties onto one transparent digital database. With this shift, citizens can apply for services in a completely faceless and contactless manner through the portal or any Bengaluru One center.

BBMP e-Aasthi Portal: Overview

The BBMP e-Aasthi portal, developed by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), gives Bengaluru residents a simple and reliable way to manage their property records online. You can check ownership details, download e-Khata certificates, apply for mutations, and access other property-related services—all without stepping out of your home. The platform stores digitized property data to ensure accuracy and transparency. It also supports property searches, application submissions, and document downloads in just a few clicks. Key features include property tax integration, valuation details, and real-time status tracking.

Why BBMP e-Aasthi Portal Matters

1. Reduces corruption and middlemen:
Since all services are automated and routed directly to officials’ dashboards, the need for physical visits decreases. This helps avoid delays, unofficial payments, and unnecessary hurdles.

2. Brings transparency and builds trust:
Residents get instant access to 46 different types of property information—such as owner photographs, Property Identification Numbers (PID), and transaction histories including sales or inheritance. This greatly reduces the chances of fraud, fake documents, or illegal transactions.

3. Supports better planning and compliance:
Property data is linked to GIS mapping and Aadhaar, helping BBMP improve tax collection, resolve disputes faster, and strengthen urban planning. From July 2025, issuing an e-Khata will become mandatory, making digital records even more important.

Where to Access the Portal

You can visit the official websites:
https://bbmpeaasthi.karnataka.gov.in/ or https://eaasthi.karnataka.gov.in/

The portal is available in both Kannada and English. After verifying your mobile number, you can log in using either an OTP or your credentials. Draft e-Aasthi certificates for properties can also be viewed ward-wise using your Property Tax ID or PID.
