Mojini Survey Application Karnataka — How to Apply & Track
Mojini comes up most often in one of two situations: a family is dividing inherited land between siblings and each portion needs its own clean survey number, or two neighboring landowners disagree about exactly where one plot ends and the other begins. Either way, you end up needing an actual surveyor to visit the site, take fresh measurements, and produce an updated record — that's what a Mojini application sets in motion.
When You Actually Need a Mojini Survey
- Splitting a plot among co-owners — common with inherited land where multiple family members each get a defined share that needs its own Hissa number
- Boundary disputes — when you and a neighbor disagree about where the property line actually sits, a Mojini survey provides an official re-measurement
- Correcting old survey errors — older records sometimes have inaccuracies that only show up when someone tries to build or sell, and a fresh survey resolves the discrepancy
- Re-establishing lost boundary markers — if physical boundary stones or markers have gone missing over the years, a surveyor can re-establish them based on official measurements
Documents You'll Need
| Document | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Current RTC (Pahani) | Confirms ownership and existing survey number |
| Sale deed or inheritance documents | Establishes legal basis for any split or transfer |
| Previous survey sketch / Tippan, if available | Gives the surveyor a reference point for the existing boundaries |
| Aadhaar and ID proof of all co-owners | Required especially when the application involves splitting land between multiple parties |
| Consent letter from co-owners (for partition cases) | Confirms all parties agree to the proposed division, reducing disputes during the survey itself |
How to Apply
- Visit the Bhoomi portal and look for 'Mojini Services' under the Survey (SSLR) section.
- Select your District, Taluk, Hobli, and Village.
- Choose the type of survey you need — partition, boundary dispute resolution, or re-measurement.
- Upload the required documents — RTC, ownership proof, and consent letters if applicable.
- Pay the applicable survey fee, which varies based on plot size and survey type.
- You'll receive an application number — keep this safe, since it's what you'll use to track progress later.
What Happens After You Apply
Once submitted, the application goes to the local Survey Settlement and Land Records department, who assign a surveyor to the case. The surveyor visits the site — this is the part that takes the longest to schedule, since it depends on how many pending requests are ahead of yours in that Taluk. During the visit, they take fresh measurements, mark or re-establish boundaries, and note down any discrepancies between the old records and what's physically on the ground.
After the field visit, the data goes back to the office for processing. For partition cases, this results in new survey/Hissa numbers being created for each portion. For boundary disputes, it results in an official determination of where the boundary actually sits, which both parties are expected to accept going forward.
Tracking Your Mojini Application
- Go to the Bhoomi portal and open 'Mojini Services' under Survey (SSLR).
- Enter your Application Number from when you submitted the request.
- Click 'Fetch Status' to see where things currently stand — whether it's awaiting surveyor assignment, scheduled for field visit, under processing, or completed.
If your application number isn't pulling up any results, double check you've got it copied correctly — these numbers are long and easy to mistype. If it's definitely correct and still showing nothing, it's worth calling the local SSLR office directly rather than assuming the application was lost.
How Long Does It Take?
For straightforward partition surveys with cooperative co-owners and no boundary disagreements, expect somewhere around 30 to 60 days. Boundary dispute cases tend to run longer — 60 to 90 days isn't unusual, and it can stretch further if the two parties can't agree even after the surveyor's measurement, which sometimes pushes the matter toward a formal hearing.
After the Survey Is Complete
Once the Mojini process wraps up, your RTC and revenue records get updated to reflect the new survey numbers or confirmed boundaries. For partition cases specifically, each co-owner should independently verify that their portion's new Hissa number and area match what was actually agreed — small clerical mismatches at this stage are easier to fix immediately than years later when you're trying to sell.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Mojini survey used for?
It's used to request a fresh land survey — typically for splitting one large plot among co-owners, or resolving boundary disputes between adjacent landholders.
How long does a Mojini survey take?
Generally 30 to 90 days, depending on surveyor availability in the Taluk and whether all co-owners are available for the on-site measurement. Disputed boundaries can take longer.
Can I track my Mojini application online?
Yes, through the Mojini Services tab under Survey (SSLR) on the Bhoomi portal, using your application number.
What if I disagree with the survey's boundary determination?
You can file an objection or appeal at the Taluk level. This typically extends the timeline further, sometimes requiring a formal hearing before resolution.
