What is Encumbrance Certificate (IGRS EC)?
An Encumbrance Certificate (EC) is an official property document that records all registered transactions related to a property. It is mainly used to check whether a property has any legal or financial liabilities such as loans, mortgages, or claims.
EC reflects data only when a transaction is officially registered at the Sub-Registrar Office (SRO). If no registration exists, the property or owner details will not appear in the EC.
This applies to all property types:
- Ancestral properties
- Private properties
- Government lands
👉 Ownership alone is not enough — your name appears in EC only after a registered transaction is recorded.
