Questions people ask
Can I search land records by owner name across India?
Yes, within the states the register has loaded. /owners/search takes a name and an optional state or district and returns matching plots in one call, instead of searching a state portal village by village.
Does a name match prove ownership?
No. The result shows a holder name recorded on a plot. It is not proof of title and not proof that two records are the same person.
How do I narrow a common name?
Add state or district (LGD codes), then use relation, share and village on each result to tell people apart.
How much does the Property Owner Search API cost?
₹0.40 per successful call (HTTP 200), paid from a prepaid wallet. Errors, not-found lookups and refused calls are free; a 200 with an empty list is billed. New accounts get ₹50 of free credit, about 125 calls, with no card. Top up with ₹500, ₹5,000, ₹50,000 plus 18% GST.
