What is Fard?

A certified extract (copy) of the land record for a holding.

A fard is simply an official copy of the relevant khatauni/khasra entries for a piece of land, issued by the revenue office. Banks ask for a fard before giving a loan against land; buyers should ask for a fresh fard before agreeing to purchase.
