FAQs
What is a Ferfar in Gujarat?
Ferfar is the mutation entry that records a change in land ownership. It reflects the legal transfer of rights from one party to another and updates the 7/12 and 8A records accordingly. It is essential for ensuring that the land record reflects the current lawful owner.

The following benefits are associated with a recorded Ferfar:
- It ensures legal recognition of ownership changes
- Prevents future property disputes by creating an official record
