WB Mutation
Overview
Mutation (মিউটেশন / म्यूटेशन) in West Bengal is the official process to update the Record of Rights (RoR) after a change in land ownership due to sale, gift, inheritance, or name correction. Managed under the Department of Land & Land Reforms, mutation is essential for legally updating the landowner's name (নাম পরিবর্তন / नाम परिवर्तन) in government land records.
Landeed simplifies this process by helping you apply for mutation from the comfort of your home. The mutation process takes approximately 15 to 30 days, and Landeed handles the end-to-end submission, verification, and delivery of the certified Mutation Certificate.
