only an agriculturist can purchase agricultural land in Maharashtra
2) if you are registered as farmer in another state you can purchase agricultural land in Maharashtra
Thank you Mr Sethi ! The middle men / agents even some references in land records are trying to discourage me by saying that Farmer certificate in Rajasthan is not valid in Maharashtra and is not a legal document for having your name on the 7/ 12 of the Agri land in MH. Kindly give reference of an advocate nearby Pune who believes this transaction is legal.
there are number of lawyers on this website from Pune . contact any of them
the only requirement for buying agricultural land in Mahrashtra is you must be any agriculturist . if you are holding agricultural land any where in India you would be an agirculturist
Maharashtra has a law that says agricultural land can be given only to agriculturists.
Transfer to non agriculturist barred under Section 63
No sale, gifts, exchange or lease of any land shall be valid in favour of person who is not an agriculturist. However collector may grant permission for transfer under the below mentioned conditions:
the condition for exemption applicable to wannabe agriculturists is
e) The land is required for cultivating it by a personally by a person, who, not being an agriculturist, intends to take to the profession of agriculture and to whom collector has given certificate that such person is intend to take to the profession of agriculture and is capable of cultivating land personally;
In Maharashtra, you have to get a certificate from the collector that you intend to be an agriculturists and then get the collector to exempt you from showing that you are an agriculturist by means of owning previous agricultural land.
Incidentally, just owning agricultural land is not sufficient to prove that you are an agriculturist. But most land registration offices take only prior ownership as the proof of being an agriculturist!

The certificate so obtained from other state may come under scanner and it may not be recognised, hence you may avoid the back door entry, instead you may go the straight route to acquire the agriculture land as per provisions of law.
