In a long-awaited move, Karnataka’s Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar has announced that nearly 7.5 lakh B Khata properties will now be converted into A Khata properties. This development comes as a huge relief for property owners across Bengaluru and other parts of Karnataka who have been struggling with legal hurdles, lower property valuations, and loan rejections due to holding B Khata properties.
🔹 What is B Khata and A Khata?
- A Khata: Properties that are legally registered, have paid all property taxes, and are eligible for bank loans, building approvals, and resale without issues.
- B Khata: Properties that are considered semi-legal, often due to deviations in construction, unpaid taxes, or pending approvals. Owners of B Khata properties usually face difficulties in getting home loans and see reduced resale value.
🔹 Why is the Conversion Important?
The announcement of converting B Khata to A Khata is a game-changer for property owners because:
- ✅ Increased Property Value – Properties will gain higher market valuation.
- ✅ Easy Home Loan Approvals – Banks and NBFCs usually reject B Khata properties, but A Khata is fully loan-eligible.
- ✅ Legal Clarity – Owners can now sell, mortgage, or transfer property without hassles.
- ✅ Better Compliance – Ensures all properties fall under proper municipal governance.
🔹 Impact on Home Loans
One of the biggest challenges B Khata property owners face is loan rejection. Banks and NBFCs typically avoid lending against B Khata due to unclear legal standing.
Now, with the conversion to A Khata:
- 🏦 Buyers can confidently apply for home loans and mortgage loans.
- 📉 Interest rates may be lower due to reduced lending risks.
- 📑 Loan eligibility will improve significantly for both buyers and existing owners.
