2. Apply for mutation at the Tehsil office or online through the Revenue Court portal
3. Submit supporting documents:
   • Registered sale deed / succession certificate / will
   • Aadhaar card of new owner
   • Previous Khatauni copy
   • Death certificate (for inheritance cases)
4. The Lekhpal will verify the documents and prepare a report
5. The SDM / Tehsildar will pass the mutation order after hearing
6. The updated Khatauni will reflect on UP Bhulekh within a few weeks
