Tamilnilam Explained: How to Check Patta, DTCP Status & Secure Your Plot

If you're planning to buy land in Tamil Nadu, you've probably heard of Tamilnilam—the official government portal for land records. But what does it actually do? And how can it help you make a safe, informed investment?

At Daga Developers, we believe awareness is protection. So here’s a clear, step-by-step guide to help you understand Tamilnilam, check your plot’s status, and avoid costly mistakes.

What Is Tamilnilam?

Tamilnilam is the Tamil Nadu government’s digital platform for:

• Viewing land ownership records (Patta)
• Checking survey numbers and classification
• Verifying DTCP (Directorate of Town and Country Planning) approvals
• Tracking regularization status for unapproved plots

Whether you're a buyer, seller, or developer, Tamilnilam is your first checkpoint before any land transaction.

How to Check Patta Status Online

Here’s how you can verify your plot’s Patta using Tamilnilam:

1. Visit https://tamilnilam.tn.gov.in
2. Select your district and taluk
3. Enter your survey number and subdivision
4. Choose the type of land (wet/dry)
5. Click “Submit” to view ownership and classification details

🛠️ Common Issues:

• If the site shows “No records found,” double-check your survey number or try a different taluk.
• For newly registered plots, Patta updates may take time—contact your local revenue office for assistance.

DTCP Approval vs Unapproved Plots

DTCP approval ensures your plot is legally recognized for development. Without it, you may face:

• Denial of building permits
• Ineligibility for housing loans
• Risk of future demolition or resale issues

Use Tamilnilam to check if your plot is part of a DTCP-approved layout. If not, don’t worry—there’s a solution.

Regularization Scheme: Legalizing Unapproved Plots

The Tamil Nadu government offers a Regularization Scheme for plots purchased before October 20, 2016. Through this, you can:

• Pay applicable charges (scrutiny, development, regularization, OSR)
• Legalize your plot for construction and resale
• Apply for Patta and building approvals

💡 Visit DTCP portal for details and application steps.
