Data last verified against official sources:
In Maharashtra, certificates issued by the state government — income, caste or community, domicile or residence, ration card and marriage certificates — are applied for on the official Aaple Sarkar portal (aaplesarkar.mahaonline.gov.in). Land records are on MahaBhulekh (bhulekh.mahabhumi.gov.in). Each service on the portal shows its own form, required documents, fee (if any) and timeline.
