Karnataka will be implementing the new ‘Anywhere Registration’ system across all sub-registrar offices on September 2. Of the 257 sub-registrar offices across the state, residents will now be able to choose any office within their district’s jurisdiction for property registration at their convenience.

This concept, originally introduced in Bengaluru in 2011, permitted property registrations at any sub-registrar office within the Gandhinagar, Basavanagudi, Jayanagar, Shivajinagar, and Rajajinagar district registration offices.

The system has proven effective in these areas. Revenue Minister Krishna Byre Gowda has now instructed the Registration and Stamps Department to extend this efficient ‘Anywhere Registration’ system statewide.

Given the variations in document types, registration numbers, property types, and values across districts, Belagavi and Tumakuru—districts with a higher number of sub-registrar offices—were selected for a pilot phase. This phase, conducted over two months, confirmed the system’s success with no major issues. Following a third phase of evaluation, preparations are underway to roll out the system across all registration districts in the state.

Under the current system, property registration must occur within the jurisdiction of the specific sub-registrar office. Any non-cooperation, objections, or delays from the concerned office can lead to further delays. The ‘Anywhere Registration’ system will provide the public with multiple office options, thereby reducing dependence on any single office.

“The ‘Anywhere Registration’ system, beginning in September, will be progressively implemented throughout the state. This initiative will benefit the public by saving time and money, minimising unnecessary delays, and evenly distributing the workload among sub-registrar offices,” Gowda added.

As a property buyer who has often found the registration process cumbersome and time-consuming, the introduction of the ‘Anywhere Registration’ system is a welcome change, says Madhappa K, a property dealer.

“Previously, being bound to a specific sub-registrar office meant having to navigate through traffic and face long queues, all while dealing with unpredictable delays if the office staff was uncooperative or if there were any administrative issues. This new system will significantly simplify the process, allowing us to register our properties at any nearby or convenient office within our district.”

Furthermore, he said that the flexibility to choose an office that suits one’s schedule will not only save time but also reduce the stress and inconvenience associated with property registration. “Additionally, by distributing the workload across multiple offices, it will help avoid congestion and ensure that all offices are utilised more effectively.

Overall, the ‘Anywhere Registration’ system will make the property registration process more accessible and less burdensome, providing a much-needed improvement for property buyers like myself who value efficiency and convenience,” Madhappa added.
