Banglarbhumi Warish Application: Online Steps & Documents

To start a Banglarbhumi Warish Application, sign in to the official portal and choose Citizen Services → Online Application → Warish Application. Select the land location, enter the relevant Khatian number, complete the deceased landholder and successor information, and provide the documents requested by the form. The screen shown in this guide marks Death Certificate / Proof of Death, Legal heir Document, Number of Warish and Legal Heir Certificate Issued By as required fields. Review the application and retain any reference issued when you submit.

Use the official Banglarbhumi portal for the application. For related searches and services, see our Banglarbhumi land records guide. Banglarbhumi.info explains the process; it does not accept applications or issue heirship documents.

What is a Banglarbhumi Warish Application?

Warish refers to heirs or successors. This portal service concerns an heir-related land-record application after the death of a recorded landholder. It asks for the relevant land record, information about the deceased person and successor details. The person described as the ancestor in the form is the deceased landholder connected with the request.

Submitting a Warish form is not an automatic decision on ownership or inheritance shares. Who is entitled to inherit depends on the applicable succession law and case circumstances. If there is a dispute, a will, a missing heir or uncertainty about entitlement, obtain guidance from the responsible authority or a qualified legal professional before making a declaration.

Warish application, mutation and a legal heir document

ItemWhat it is used for
Warish ApplicationThe heir-related land-record service shown on Banglarbhumi.
Mutation ApplicationA separate record-update service. Inheritance can also be relevant to mutation; mutation is not restricted to sale or gift. Use the route instructed for your case.
Legal heir documentSupporting evidence of heirship requested by the Warish form. Opening a Warish application does not itself issue this document.

If you are dealing with a different transfer or record-update task, read the Mutation Application guide. Do not submit duplicate requests through both services simply because you are unsure which applies.

Details and documents to keep ready

Detail or documentHow to prepare it
District, Block and MouzaMatch the land location to the existing record.
Khatian numberKeep the complete reference, including a second part where present. Verify it through the Khatian and Plot Information guide if needed.
Date of DeathUse the date supported by the death record. The pictured field uses DD/MM/YYYY.
Death Certificate / Proof of DeathThe pictured form marks this upload as required. Use the proof accepted by the responsible authority.
Legal heir DocumentThis upload is also marked required in the pictured form; it should not be described as merely optional.
Legal Heir Certificate Issued ByKeep the actual issuing-authority details ready and choose the matching option offered.
Number of Warish and successor informationCheck the heir document and the details needed for the people to be included. Do not omit someone merely to simplify the application.

The two document-upload fields pictured below specify PDF files, maximum 2 MB. Prepare a clear PDF for each field and follow the limit displayed when you apply. After compression, reopen each PDF to check names, dates, issuing details and every relevant page. A renamed image is not a valid PDF conversion.

Warish Application ancestor details with required document uploads and PDF size limits
Ancestor Details: death proof and legal heir document uploads show PDF format with a maximum size of 2 MB.

Do not treat a generic list of Aadhaar, PAN, photographs, NOCs and affidavits as a universal upload checklist. Supply further documents when the actual form or responsible office requires them. If your legal heir document is missing or its issuing authority does not match an available choice, seek clarification rather than uploading an unrelated paper or choosing an incorrect issuer.

How to open the Warish Application form

1. Open the official website and sign in. Start at banglarbhumi.gov.in. Use your existing citizen account or the official registration process if an account is required. Keep login credentials and verification codes private.

2. Select the correct application. Open Citizen Services, expand Online Application and select Warish Application. Warish Status under Online Service Status is for following an existing request, not starting this form.

Select Online Application → Warish Application.

How to fill the land-location and Khatian fields

3. Choose Code Wise or Name Wise as appropriate. These choices appear alongside the land-location selectors. The screenshot has Name Wise selected and displays District, Block and Mouza lists. It does not show a deceased-person name-search box. Do not interpret Name Wise as permission to search heirs using a name alone. Follow the location labels displayed for the mode you select.

4. Select District, Block and Mouza. Choose them in order and wait for the dependent lists to load. If you change the District or Block, check the later selections again. A matching Khatian number in a different Mouza can identify a different record.

5. Enter the Khatian reference carefully. The screenshot shows two input boxes separated by a slash. Copy the relevant parts from your record into the corresponding fields. Do not substitute a plot number, GRN or mutation case number. If you are uncertain about an absent second part, follow the form instructions or obtain official clarification; do not invent one.

Banglarbhumi Warish Application location and Khatian number fields
Select the land location and enter the relevant Khatian reference.

Reference Number and Case Date: these fields are visible in the same section, but the screenshot does not establish when they are generated or whether they are editable. Follow the form’s behaviour and instructions. Do not make up a reference or enter today’s date as a case date simply to fill every visible box.

How to complete Ancestor Details and Successor Details

6. Complete Ancestor Details. Enter the supported Date of Death, attach the Death Certificate / Proof of Death and Legal heir Document, state the Number of Warish and select the correct issuing authority. The required markers are visible beside these fields. Keep the deceased person’s information separate from the applicant’s and successors’ information.

7. Complete the successor section. Continue to Successor Details and provide the information requested for the heirs concerned. Check names and relationships against the supporting documents, and reconcile the entries with the Number of Warish. Enter shares or guardian/representative information only where the form asks and where supported by the applicable records or instructions. Do not assume equal shares for every case or omit a minor heir.

8. Review and follow the final controls shown. Check location, Khatian, death date, document uploads, issuing authority and successor entries. Read declarations before accepting them. Complete any verification and save or submit through the controls offered by the official form. Retain the acknowledgement and reference if submission succeeds. The screenshots here show the initial form and ancestor-document section; they do not show the final submission controls or a completed application result.

Fees, payment and processing time

The supplied form sections do not display a Warish application fee or payment sequence. Check the instructions attached to your application and pay only if an official demand or linked payment step applies. Do not assume a fee from a mutation tutorial is also the Warish fee. If payment is requested, confirm the application reference and save the payment acknowledgement separately.

For a payment problem, our GRN Search guide explains the relevant reference checks. A payment receipt alone does not establish approval of the heir-related request.

No fixed approval period is stated here because the screenshots do not provide one. Check the applicable official service timeline and any notice issued for your case. Document verification, an enquiry or attendance may be required; an online form does not guarantee that every stage finishes without an office visit.

After submission: status, notices and land-record checks

Retain the acknowledgement, issued reference, land location and copies of documents submitted. For tracking, return to Citizen Services → Online Service Status → Warish Status and enter the reference details requested by that service. Do not assume its search fields are identical to the application form.

Read any remarks or notice for a specific document, correction, deadline or attendance instruction. A pending result does not tell you the cause by itself. If a decision is issued, read it and check the relevant record afterwards; do not assume that every successful submission immediately changes the Khatian. For a required official record copy, use the ROR Request guide and the appropriate copy service.

Common problems and practical checks

ProblemWhat to do
Khatian or recorded name does not matchRecheck location and both parts of the number. Keep the land record and death/relationship documents ready for official clarification.
Legal heir document unavailableAsk the appropriate issuing authority or land office about the document accepted for your case. Do not assume that any affidavit is automatically equivalent.
Issuing authority not foundCheck the document and available choices. Seek clarification rather than selecting a different authority to bypass validation.
PDF upload rejectedCheck the actual format and size limit, file readability and whether the file is damaged or password-protected.
Number of Warish does not match successor entriesReconcile the count and entries with the supporting document. Resolve any missing or disputed person before submitting a declaration.
Unclear Reference Number or Case DateFollow auto-filled/read-only fields and any instructions. Do not invent values.
Page fails or session expiresSign in through the official homepage again. Check for an existing acknowledgement before starting a duplicate request.
Submission outcome unclearCheck saved downloads and the status service; contact the responsible office with the reference and exact error.

Common questions about Banglarbhumi Warish Application

Is a legal heir document optional?
The form pictured in this guide marks Legal heir Document and Legal Heir Certificate Issued By as required. Follow the current form and the authority’s instructions about acceptable evidence.

Can I upload a JPEG instead of a PDF?
The pictured death-proof and legal-heir upload fields specify PDF, maximum 2 MB. Convert documents properly and check the current field limits before uploading.

Does Name Wise mean I can apply using only a person’s name?
No such search is shown in the screenshot. Name Wise is selected beside the location selectors; the form also asks for Khatian and other application information.

Should I fill Reference Number and Case Date myself?
Follow the form’s instructions and any automatically populated fields. Their presence in a screenshot is not a reason to invent a number or date.

Does submitting Warish automatically transfer ownership?
No. Submission is a request, not a decision on entitlement or a guarantee of a record update. Follow the official decision and applicable succession process.
