ROR 1B, often referred to together with Pahani, is the compulsory Record of Rights maintained by the Andhra Pradesh Revenue Department, showing verified ownership, survey number, extent, and land classification for a specific plot. It matters because it's the document that formally establishes who owns a piece of agricultural land — without a clean, up-to-date 1B, a buyer has no reliable proof that the seller is actually the recognised owner. This guide covers how to check and download the 1B online through Meebhoomi, what a correct record should contain, and how to fix the mismatches that come up most often. Whether you're buying agricultural land, applying for a crop loan, or settling an inheritance, this is the record you'll be asked for.
Section 1 — What is Pahani ROR 1B in Andhra Pradesh?
Before verifying the 1B on a shortlisted plot, it helps to see what else is on the market — browse agriculture land sale Andhra Pradesh on the 2Bigha map.
Definition: ROR 1B is the compulsory Record of Rights document that establishes verified ownership of agricultural land in Andhra Pradesh, showing the owner's name, survey number, extent, and land classification, and is closely linked to the Pahani (Adangal) cultivation record for the same plot.
It's often confused with Adangal, but the two capture different layers of the same land — Adangal records the season-wise cultivation details (crop, soil type), while 1B is the formal ownership statement showing who holds legal rights to the land, its extent, and classification. A buyer needs the 1B specifically because it acts as proof of ownership and is required for legal or banking purposes — a title chain that doesn't clearly reflect on the 1B can create real complications during registration or when applying for a loan against the land.
State-specific note: In Andhra Pradesh, "Pahani" and "1B" are often used interchangeably in everyday conversation, but on Meebhoomi they appear as related but distinct reports — always download both the 1B and the Adangal together for a complete picture rather than relying on just one.
Expert Tip: When reviewing the 1B, check the survey number's extent against the Pattadar Passbook and the physical Bhu Naksha (FMB/village map) as well, not just the ownership name. A 1B that shows a correct owner but a mismatched extent compared to the map can point to an unresolved boundary or subdivision issue that a name check alone won't catch.
Section 2 — How to Get Pahani ROR 1B in Andhra Pradesh?
Comparison of routes:
Method | Cost | Time | Legally valid for registration? |
|---|---|---|---|
Online (Meebhoomi, individual 1B) | Free | Instant | For reference; certified copy needed for legal use |
Online (ROFR Adangal/Village 1B, full village view) | Free | Instant | For reference and cross-verification |

Visit meebhoomi.ap.gov.in and click on "మీ భూమి వివరాల కోసం క్లిక్ చేయండి" (Click for Your Land Details) on the homepage.
Select the 1B / ROR-1B option from the menu, or navigate to "ROFR Adangal/Village 1B" for a broader village-level view.
Choose District, Mandal, and Village, then select either "Beneficiary ID" (individual) or "Entire Village" depending on what you need.
Enter your Survey Number, Khata Number, or Aadhaar Number, then complete the captcha.
Submit and review the report, which shows owner name, survey number, extent, and land classification, and download or print it as a PDF.
Visit the local Mandal Revenue Office (MRO) covering the village where the land is located.
Request a certified 1B extract for the specific survey number, providing whatever details you have — survey number, khata number, or the pattadar's name.
Pay the applicable fee, if a certified physical copy is required, and collect it once verified.
Offline requests typically take a few days if the record needs manual cross-checking. Before relying on the 1B, check that the survey number, extent, and owner name match your Pattadar Passbook and Adangal, and confirm they're all consistent with the seller's claim.

Field | What it means | What to check |
|---|---|---|
Owner (Pattadar) name | The recognised legal owner of the land | Matches the seller's ID and Pattadar Passbook |
Survey number and extent | Identifies the exact plot and its size | Consistent with the Adangal, FMB map, and sale documents |
Land classification | Wet, dry, or other category | Matches what's stated across related documents |
Khata/account number | Ownership account reference | Consistent across the 1B, Adangal, and passbook |
Mutation status | Reflects whether recent transfers are updated | No pending mutation left unresolved |
Good sign: A correct 1B shows an owner name matching the seller's Aadhaar and Pattadar Passbook, a survey number and extent consistent with the Adangal and village map, and no pending mutation flag.
Section 4 — Common Issues & How to Fix Them?
Most 1B issues in Andhra Pradesh come from digitisation-era data entry errors or pending mutations rather than genuine title disputes. Confirm your record status directly on the Pahani ROR 1B Andhra Pradesh "official website" before assuming an error is permanent.
Owner name mismatch with Aadhaar or Pattadar Passbook – A common digitisation-era error. Fix: Apply for ROR (Record of Rights) correction at your nearest MeeSeva centre.
Extent shown differs from the FMB/village map – Points to a possible boundary or subdivision issue. Fix: Cross-check with the Bhu Naksha/FMB map and raise a correction request with the Mandal Revenue Office if a genuine discrepancy exists.
Pending mutation not yet reflected – Recent sale or inheritance hasn't updated the 1B. Fix: Track mutation status through the Meebhoomi portal and follow up at the MRO if it's overdue.
Land classification appears outdated – Wet/dry status doesn't match current ground reality. Fix: Report the discrepancy to the Village Administrative Officer for field verification and correction.
Survey number search returns no result – Incorrect survey/khata number entered. Fix: Cross-check the number against a previous 1B copy or Pattadar Passbook before searching again.
Land flagged under 22-A (prohibited land list) – Certain government, endowment, or assigned lands cannot be legally transferred. Fix: Check the 22-A prohibited land list on Meebhoomi before proceeding with any transaction.
Section 5 — Recent Changes in 2026

Banks require it, alongside the Pattadar Passbook, before approving a loan against the land.
It confirms the survey number and extent match what's being sold, protecting against boundary disputes.
A clean 1B with no pending mutation supports a smoother, faster registration process.
It helps identify land flagged under the 22-A prohibited list before you commit to a purchase.
It's a core document to verify during any agriculture land sale in Andhra Pradesh transaction.
Section 7 — 1B vs. Pattadar Passbook
Aspect | 1B (ROR) | Pattadar Passbook |
|---|---|---|
Nature | Revenue Department's formal ownership record | Physical/digital passbook issued to the landowner |
Shows | Owner name, survey number, extent, classification | Ownership details, QR-coded and MRO-signed, used for loans |
Primary use | Verifying ownership for legal/banking purposes | Required specifically for agricultural bank loans |
