How to read the marks

Punjab The term is in the Punjab list (218 terms).
Haryana The term is in the Haryana list (174 terms).
PunjabHaryana It is in both (140 terms), and each state’s meaning is given separately.

A mark records which state’s source list carries the term. It does not mean the word is unknown in the other state: the two states share the revenue vocabulary of undivided Punjab, and their lists were simply compiled differently.

The 35 registry words Punjab is reported to have simplified (July 2026)

ProvisionalThis table is taken from newspaper reports. The signed departmental letter and its annexure have not been obtained, so it is not a transcription of a government order and should not be cited as one.

Reports of July 2026 say that the Stamp and Registration Branch of Punjab’s Department of Revenue and Rehabilitation wrote to the Inspector General of Registration and all Deputy Commissioners, asking that simpler Punjabi wording be preferred in property registration documents. The reports list 35 older Urdu and Persian expressions and the plainer wording for each.

The reports do not suggest that the underlying law changed, that the older words were removed from existing records, or that every revenue document must now use only the new vocabulary. Punjab’s own Jamabandi portal still shows Fard, Fard Badar and Intkal. Older records will go on using the older words, which is why both are kept here.

Where the reports disagree

Redemption of a mortgage. Punjabi Tribune prints Haq Ul Rehan; Sehaj Times prints Fak Ul Rehan. The meaning given is redemption, which fits Fak Ul Rehan. Both spellings are searchable here; the official spelling is unverified.
Tabe / Tabo. The reports differ on the spelling.
Tasawwar / Tasabbar. The older term appears in more than one spelling and has not been standardised here.
The English Tribune report mispairs the gift and correction terms and reverses the cancellation pair. This table follows the Punjabi-language reporting, which is consistent.

About this glossary

This is a working reference for reading a jamabandi, a fard, a mutation order or an old sale deed from Punjab or Haryana. It holds 252 terms: 218 from a Punjab list and 174 from a Haryana list, of which 140 are common to both. It was last revised on 11 October 2026.

Where the terms come from

Punjab. The base is the Punjab chapter of the Government of India’s Glossary of Revenue Terms and the labels on Punjab’s Jamabandi portal, checked against the Fard Kendra manual and the Punjab Land Records Manual. Around these sits a wider reference vocabulary met in older and current records. Each entry states its basis; entries marked “editorial reference entry” have not been individually checked against a current Punjab circular.
Haryana. The list is the Revenue Terminology page of Haryana’s deed registration portal, as displayed on 11 October 2026. The Hindi term and description are reproduced as the portal prints them, misprints included, with the portal’s serial number. Where a printed word is plainly defective, the usual form is given as the heading and the misprint is shown beneath it.

What it does not do

It is not an exhaustive or officially authenticated list for either state.
Hindi and Gurmukhi spellings are normalised for reading and search. Roman spellings follow ordinary pronunciation, without diacritics. English meanings are explanations, not official translations.
A term in a record does not settle title, tenancy or possession. A Gair Maurusi entry, for instance, does not on its own establish a tenancy. Read every entry with the whole record and the law that applies.
Measures vary. No single bigha or biswa conversion is given, because the size depends on the local settlement. The figures in the Haryana entries are that portal’s own statements, several of them garbled at source, and are not verified conversion factors.
The fallow periods for Banjar Jadid and Banjar Qadim shown under Haryana are the Haryana portal’s description. They are not carried into the Punjab meaning.
