Mutation Record - Ferfar applies to both NA and agricultural land

Mutation Record (Ferfar / मालमत्ता फेरफार) applies to both agricultural and NA (Non-Agricultural) plots in Maharashtra.

🔹 1. Agricultural Land

• When ownership of agricultural land changes (sale, gift, inheritance, partition), a mutation is recorded.
• It updates the 7/12 extract to show the new owner(s).
• Even if the land is still agricultural, mutation is mandatory to legally recognize the change.

🔹 2. NA (Non-Agricultural) Land

• When agricultural land is converted to NA (residential, commercial, industrial), the ownership can still be transferred.

• Each transfer (sale, gift, inheritance) requires a mutation entry.

• The 7/12 extract and mutation record will now reflect:

  • NA status (Residential/Commercial/Industrial)
  • New owner’s name(s)

🔹 Key Points

1. Mutation is independent of land use — it records ownership change for all land types.
2. 7/12 shows current status, but mutation shows historical changes.
3. For NA land, mutation ensures legal recognition of ownership before construction or registration of a building plan.
4. Banks also insist on up-to-date mutation for approving loans on NA plots.
