Important Tips

1. Know your RI Circle — Odisha uses RI Circle in the search hierarchy, which is different from other states; check with your local revenue office if unsure
2. Use khatiyan number for complete records — Searching by khatiyan gives all plots under one ownership, while plot search shows individual plot details
3. Verify kissam before purchase — Land classification determines what the land can be used for; agricultural land has restrictions on non-agricultural use
4. Map view helps verify boundaries — Use the mouza map to confirm plot boundaries before any land transaction
5. Check both sabik and hal patta — Compare previous and current records to understand ownership history
