Terms and Conditions

By creating an account or listing a property on BhumiIN you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

• BhumiIN is an online platform that helps people find and list property in Karnataka. We are an intermediary. We are not a party to any sale, purchase or rental between users, and we do not guarantee any listing.
• You must be 18 or older and legally able to enter into a contract under the Indian Contract Act, 1872.
• Listings must be for property located in Karnataka. Indian law applies to these terms, and the courts at Bengaluru have jurisdiction, subject to any consumer forum or RERA authority that has jurisdiction by law.
• You must give true and complete information. Fake, duplicate or misleading listings, and listings for property you have no right to offer, are not allowed.
• Real estate in Karnataka is regulated by the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA) and the Karnataka Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Rules, 2017. Where a project must be registered with K-RERA, its registration number must be shown in the listing, and an unregistered project that needs registration must not be advertised.
• You must not use the site to discriminate, harass, spam, collect the personal data of other users, or break any law.
• We may remove listings, suspend or delete accounts, or refuse sign-up if these terms are broken or the law requires it.
• To the extent the law allows, BhumiIN is not liable for losses arising from dealings between users, from inaccurate listings, or from property documents that were not verified.
• We may update these terms. The version date is shown at the top of this page, and we record which version you accepted.

By choosing Agent you declare that:

• You hold a valid K-RERA real estate agent registration where the law requires it (Section 9 of RERA), and you will show your registration number on your profile and listings.
• You will list projects that need K-RERA registration only if they are registered, and you will quote the project's RERA registration number in every such listing.
• You will not help sell a plot, apartment or building in a project that should be registered but is not.
• You will follow the duties of real estate agents under Section 10 of RERA, including giving buyers correct information and documents and not using unfair trade practices.
• You will state any brokerage or fee plainly, and you will not take advance or token money on behalf of an owner or promoter without written authority.
• You have the owner's or promoter's permission to list each property, and you will remove a listing once it is sold or withdrawn.
• You are responsible for the accuracy of your listings, photos and prices.

By choosing Owner you declare that:

• You are the lawful owner of the property, or you have the owner's written authority to list it, and every co-owner or legal heir whose consent is needed knows about the listing.
• You have a clear right to sell or rent the property, and you will tell buyers about any loan, mortgage, court case, dispute or other burden on it.
• You will describe the property truthfully, including its khata type (A or B) where it applies, its size and its approvals. Photos must be of the actual property.
• For agricultural land, you will state the land use honestly and say whether conversion of land use has been done where the law requires it.
• If you sell several units as a promoter and the project needs K-RERA registration, you will register it first and show the registration number.
• You will remove the listing once the property is sold or rented.

By choosing Buyer you understand that:

• BhumiIN only shows listings. We do not check the title, approvals or price of every property, and we are not responsible for what happens between you and a seller or agent.
• Before you pay any token or advance, check whether the project is registered on rera.karnataka.gov.in and whether the agent is registered.
• Check the title documents, khata, encumbrance certificate, approved plan and land use with a lawyer or other professional you trust.
• A sale of immovable property is completed by a registered sale deed with the required stamp duty. Payments or promises made only in messages are risky.
• If you have a complaint about a registered project or agent, you can file it with K-RERA.
• Report a suspicious listing to us through the Contact page so that we can review it.

This section explains how BhumiIN handles your personal data under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the Information Technology Act, 2000.

• We collect your name, email or phone number, your WhatsApp number if you give it, your account type, the property details and photos you upload, and security information such as login time, IP address and browser.
• We use this to run your account, show your listings, let interested people contact you, send the notifications you asked for, and keep the site secure.
• If you list a property, the contact details you provide may be shown to people who view that listing.
• We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with service providers that help us run the site, or when the law requires it.
• You can ask to see, correct or delete your data, or withdraw your consent, by writing to us through the Contact page. Withdrawing consent may mean we can no longer keep your account.
• We keep your data while your account is active and for as long as the law requires afterwards.
