Property purchases are amongst  the most important decisions of your life, and this process has a lot of legalities and paperwork involved to ensure property is free from legal claims and litigation.
7/12 Extract is one of the documents necessary to buy property in Maharashtra and is the extract from the land records register held by the Revenue Department of Government of Maharashtra. This document is required while investing in plots in the rural or semi-rural areas. The document is only important when land parts have no city survey counts, because the government has scratched out the use of this document in urban regions in Maharashtra, which include suburban portions of Mumbai.

The document refers to the ownership, occupancy right, liabilities and information of the land. For each town, the extract is kept individually. The paperwork of 7/12 is also necessary for non-agricultural land. This document is intended as evidence of ownership of the land.
