Satbara Utara Meaning in Marathi | 7/12 Columns & Free Copy

The 7/12 is called satbara utara in Marathi — same record, same columns, same official copy. The name comes from the 7 rows of rights and the 12 columns of land details on the page. Every parcel in Maharashtra has a 7/12; every owner, buyer, bank and court treats it as the primary record of possession, cultivation, and encumbrances.

The extract is read together with the 8A holding statement and the Ferfar mutation register — those three together form the full title picture. The 7/12 by itself is evidence of possession and title, not proof of title; the registered sale deed and the certified mutation is what closes the chain.

Three free official channels, all run by the Maharashtra Land Records department. (1) Mahabhulekh (bhulekh.mahabhumi.gov.in, also reachable via bhulekh.mahabhumi.gov.in) - the main portal, full extract, no fee, no signup. (2) Aaple Abhilekh (aapleabhilekh.mahabhumi.gov.in) - government portal, nominal fee only for the QR-signed certified copy; the unsigned view is free. (3) Digital Satbara (digitalsatbara.mahabhumi.gov.in) - the DSLR service on Mahabhumi, Aadhaar-OTP login, QR-signed PDF download at the small per-copy government fee.

Our 7/12 reader tool links all three with district, taluka and village preselected.

• Gat/Survey number (गट / सर्व्हे क्र.): the unique parcel ID.
• Khata number (खाता क्र.): the revenue account the parcel sits under.
• Holder (भोगवटदार): the recorded owner - the name must match your seller's name exactly.
• Area (क्षेत्रफळ): in Hectare.Are.Square-metre (H.A.Sq.m).
• Class (प्रवर्ग): the tenure (Class 1 agricultural, Class 2 non-agricultural) that decides NA eligibility.
• Assessment (जुजी / आकारणी): the land revenue due.
• Rights & encumbrances (हक्क व बोजा): mortgages, court remarks, pending matters - the red-flag column.
• Cultivation (पिक): the seasonal crop, if any.
• Mojani (मोजणी): the measurement footnote that explains sub-divisions.

The free view on Mahabhulekh is fine for daily owner and area checks. For documents that must be relied on - a bank loan file, a court submission, an NA application, a building-permit file - you need the QR-signed copy. The QR code on the signed PDF ties that exact file to the revenue database at the moment of issue. Two official channels for the signed copy: Aaple Abhilekh (most common for Pune and Baramati), and Digital Satbara (the DSLR service on Mahabhumi). Aadhaar-OTP login, district → taluka → village → survey number, pay the small fee (₹20–50 per copy, revised yearly), and download. Verify the QR before you submit - a screenshot has no signature and is rejected.

Pune district is the most active agricultural-to-urban land market in Maharashtra, and the satbara utara here is read differently. On the PMC and PMRDA fringe (Haveli, Mulshi, Maval, Khed), the extract is only one document in the pack - you also need the NA order, the gunthewari status (or non-gunthewari certificate), and the 8A. Baramati and the rural talukas (Indapur, Daund) are largely agricultural - the irrigation, bore-well and crop columns matter, and the Ferfar history often shows the family partition. A partition registered in Ferfar but not yet reflected on the 7/12 or the village map is the most common red flag. Our Pune district 7/12 guide covers the taluka-level specifics; the Baramati 7/12 guide covers the rural read.

Errors in ownership, area, classification or khate are corrected through the mutation (Ferfar) process. File the mutation at the talathi office of your circle, attach the registered sale deed / gift / partition / court order, and follow up at the tahsildar office if the talathi doesn't sanction within 30 days. Aaple Abhilekh also accepts online mutation filing for most talukas.

The 7/12 itself is corrected by the next 7/12 issued after the Ferfar is sanctioned.
