 Nakal 

  • Nakal is a document that encapsulates all essential information about a piece of land, covering ownership patterns, revenues, and other pertinent details.

 Khasra or DAG Number

  • Often referred to as DAG number, Khasra is a unique identifier assigned to a land parcel in a village. In urban areas, it corresponds to the survey number.

Khewat 

  • Khewat is a number assigned to landowners who collectively own a piece of land. Think of it as an account number granted to various owners of the same parcel.

Patta
