Maharashtra Land Record (7/12) Parser

Turn the text of a 7/12 or 8A extract into a table you can use. Village, survey number, area, holder and other rights are pulled out and shown with exactly what was matched, so you can correct anything before exporting.

Copy the text out of the Mahabhulekh page or PDF, labels included. Keep each field on its own line — the labels are what the parser matches on.

Why this matters here

Older Indian survey and revenue records sit on the Everest spheroid, not WGS 84. Treating one as the other puts everything a few hundred metres out — enough to move a plot boundary onto a neighbour.

Indian systems included

Kalianpur 1880, 1937 and 1975, the India zone grids, UTM zones 42N to 47N on both WGS 84 and Indian datums, and the WGS 84 state systems.

Bulk paste

Paste a column straight out of a spreadsheet. Anything after the first two values is carried through as a label, and the result downloads as CSV.

Nothing leaves your device

The arithmetic runs in your browser with proj4. No coordinate is transmitted, logged or stored anywhere.

Frequently asked questions

How reliable is this?

Treat it as an assistant, not an authority. Extract layouts differ between districts and change between years, so the parser shows you exactly which label it matched for every field and leaves anything it could not find blank. Check each value against the document before you rely on it — particularly area and holder names.

Nothing was recognised. What went wrong?

Usually the labels were lost. Copy the text with its labels intact rather than only the values, and keep each field on its own line. If it came through an OCR step, the Marathi labels may have been mangled, which the parser cannot recover from.

Which fields does it look for?

Village, taluka, district, survey or gat number, hissa number, area, pot kharab, assessment, khata number, holder, other rights and tenure. Both Marathi and English labels are matched.

How does it handle the area?

It reads hectare-are notation such as 1.25 हे, plain hectares, ares, gunthas and square metres, converts to square metres, and shows you which reading it used. Where the units are unclear it says so rather than guessing.

Can I correct what it found?

Yes. Every value is editable before you download, and your corrections go into the CSV.

Is my document uploaded anywhere?

No. The text is parsed in your browser and never transmitted, which matters given what a land record contains.
