The Maharashtra State Waqf Tribunal, which is based in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, has granted a six-month extension for uploading of Waqf property data on the UMEED portal.
The UMEED (Unified Waqf Management, Empowerment, Efficiency, and Development) portal is the Centre’s system for digital management of Waqf properties, which are permanent endowments of movable or immovable assets (like land, buildings, money) by a Muslim for religious, charitable, or pious purposes.
Waqf Board to approach Tribunal for the second time to seek extension to file data on UMEED portal
The Tribunal granted the relief on Tuesday (December 24, 2025) on an interim application by the Maharashtra State Board of Waqf, as the deadline for registration expired on December 5. The Board told the Tribunal that despite repeated communications through emails and WhatsApp to the UMEED portal support team, several technical issues remained unresolved.
According to the Board, there are nearly 36,000 registered Waqf institutions in Maharashtra. The Board stated that while it submitted details of all 36,000 institutions, out of nearly 75,000 Waqf properties, only 50,000 properties could be uploaded on the portal.
