The public e-Aasthi Khatha Transfer payment page says BBMP is not responsible for online-payment failure or auto-refund and directs a user whose amount was deducted but not updated in e-Aasthi to contact the Assistant Revenue Officer with details.

Evidence BRecord verifiedBasis observation

Block two

What is still unsettled

Two kinds of thing sit here: questions the published record leaves open, and points where our own reading stopped — at a login we did not cross, or a step we could not observe without applying. Each item says which it is. Both are reasons to ask before you apply rather than after.

6 open

After checking the public e-Aasthi property search, eKhata application-status, and Upload EC routes, no official public procedure was found that diagnoses an unresolved or incorrect EPID or provides an EPID-specific correction or recovery path for a clean-sale case.

The record leaves this openEvidence UnknownRecord unknownBasis observation

What we checkedThe pass checked the public search controls, the blank status result, and the public PropertyId/EC route without entering an identifier. The visible generic helpline and missing-property route are not treated as EPID-specific correction procedures.

No reviewed public official page establishes a complete current sequence from registered deed to Automatic Mutation, Final eKhata order, payment, download, and municipal record update, or a service-level time for that sequence.

The record leaves this openEvidence UnknownRecord unknownBasis inference

What we checkedForm 24 describes an approved-order effect, and public pages expose separate services; the relationship and timing remain unverified.

The public Draft/Final eKhata instructions list a registered deed as an input, but the unauthenticated route exposes no deed-validation error, rejection text, or public recovery route; those outcomes are Unknown without login and upload.

The record leaves this openEvidence UnknownRecord unknownBasis observation

What we checkedThe public login page was inspected; no login, upload, or validation action was attempted.

The reviewed public ward/property map page does not establish what property result, ward assignment, validation error, or Draft eKhata handoff follows entering a location or selecting a property; those outcomes are Unknown.

The record leaves this openEvidence UnknownRecord unknownBasis observation

What we checkedNo location or property was entered.

The reviewed public municipal pages do not establish which properties or registered deeds qualify for Automatic Mutation, when manual mutation is required, or whether a displayed EPID proves that ownership has been updated.

The record leaves this openEvidence UnknownRecord unknownBasis inference

What we checkedThe public service/report labels establish routes and fields, not eligibility rules or universal sequence.

The unauthenticated public pages do not establish the complete post-login Draft/Final eKhata form, current field-level validation, document rejection messages, or upload-to-status handoff for a particular property.

Where this route is known to break

Failure points recorded for this situation, with the recovery the record supports — or the absence of one.

4 recorded
documentation

Automatic-mutation eligibility is not exposed publicly

The citizen portal exposes Automatic Mutations and the report exposes mutation bases, but no individual property was checked.

Likely cause
Unknown; the reviewed public pages do not publish eligibility, manual-versus-automatic branching, or correction rules.
Recovery
Use the public EPID/status and mutation-report surfaces only for an authorized case; seek official case-specific guidance if the row or eligibility is absent.
process

Draft/Final eKhata form and upload outcome are login-gated

The public page directs mobile/OTP login and lists Final eKhata uploads, but the authenticated form and validation state are not visible in this pass.

Likely cause
Authentication and property-specific context are required; no access-control bypass was attempted.
Recovery
Treat the public checklist as a shelf reference only. The exact field, upload, rejection, and status path remains Unknown until a user completes an authorized session.
infrastructure

Payment deducted but municipal record not updated

The public payment/download notices identify a state where payment has been deducted but is not updated in e-Aasthi.

Likely cause
Unknown; the notice does not distinguish bank failure, auto-refund, or municipal reconciliation delay.
Recovery
Contact the respective bank for payment failure/auto-refund and contact the ARO with details when a deducted payment is not updated; refund timing and evidence requirements are Unknown.
process

Default public views do not expose a case outcome

The public status and pendency pages show blank/no-data defaults, while deed processing and map selection stop before an authenticated or property-specific result.

Likely cause
No EPID, property, filter, location, login, upload, or submission was used in this public-only pass.
Recovery
Use the published non-submission handoffs (eKhata helpline and any visible official report route) when a real case is authorised; validation, rejection, property result, and resolution timing remain Unknown here.
