FAQ
In most cases, a co-owner cannot sell the entire property without all co-owners' consent. However, they may sell their undivided share. The other co-owners have a right of pre-emption in some cases. If a dispute arises, a partition suit is the appropriate remedy.
Khata is an accounting entry in the BBMP records that identifies the owner of a property for tax purposes. A valid khata in your name is essential for property transactions, building permits, and bank loans. Obtaining and correcting khata requires specific documentation and is often disputed in old layouts.
You can file a suit for injunction in the civil court seeking a temporary injunction (granted within days in urgent cases) to stop construction.
