When you need it

A mutation is entered but final attestation/sanction is pending — not a fresh application, but a request to complete verification, hearing and decision on an identified mutation number: the last completed stage and any objection/hearing status. If unresolved, request a hearing rather than demand automatic attestation.

REQUEST FOR ATTESTATION OF A MUTATION

Request date: 1 April 2026

Applicant: Aarav Sharma, Sector 21, Panchkula. Mutation no.: Mutation 118/2026.

Property: SAS Nagar, Kharar, Village Kharar; Khewat 114, Khatauni 226, Khasra 18//12 min.; 4 kanal agricultural land, full ownership share..

Source: Registered gift deed no. 881 dated 01 September 2026.

Current entry status: Mutation entered and awaiting verification/attestation.

Objection/hearing position: No objection has been communicated.

Requested action: Verify and attest/sanction the pending mutation.

Please decide the pending mutation according to the source record and applicable procedure and provide the attestation/sanction reference or reasons for any further requirement.

LEGAL BASIS

In Punjab the Circle Revenue Officer, a Naib Tehsildar or Tehsildar, attests, sanctions or rejects a mutation after the Halqa Patwari has entered it in the register of mutations and the Field Kanungo has validated it, and recovers the mutation fee at attestation under section 38(2) of the Punjab Land Revenue Act, 1887. A sanctioned mutation is good from the date of the order whether or not it has reached a jamabandi. An order sanctioning or rejecting a mutation can be appealed under section 13 of the Act, within thirty days to the Collector (section 14). In Chandigarh only the Union Territory's revenue villages carry a jamabandi, and mutations there are attested by the Tehsildar or Naib Tehsildar of the Union Territory; a sector property held from the Estate Office is not mutated this way.
