Hello,

You will have to obtain permission from Assistant commissioner of the region under Section 80 of the KLR to make the gift deed a valid one, so that it is not challenged in future.

Contact a local lawyer for the same.

Hi

It is Incorrect to say that you cannot inherit agricultural properties in the event of your annual income is more than 2 lakhs as Karnataka Land Reforms Act only Prohibits buying and selling of lands. and NOT inheritance.

Yours is a case of inheritance by way of gift deed from your mother.

Also you did the right thing by getting the mutation and khata transferred to your name.

Section 79-A. Acquisition of land by certain persons prohibited. - (1) On and from the commencement of the the Karnataka Land Reforms (Amendment) Act, 1995, no person who or a family or a joint family which has an assured annual income of not less than 1[rupees two lakhs] from sources other than agricultural lands shall be entitled to acquire any land whether as land owner, landlord, tenant or mortgagee with possession or otherwise or partly in one capacity and partly in another

From a bare reading, it is explicitly clear that Section 79-A prohibits only acquisition by way of sale, mortgage etc and NOT inheritance.

Hope this information is useful.

1. the law in Karnataka concerning Agricultural land is that no body can own a piece of Agricultural land unless he/she is an agriculturist and his income from source other than agriculture is more than Rs.2 lakhs per year.

2. So, as per the law of your State, you are not eligible to to own a piece of Agricultural land in Karnataka.

3. Based on the above, you are not eligible to own the said Agricultural land through the said gift deed.

The said Gift will be invalid since the donee is not eligible to own agricultural land in Karnataka for reasons as explained in my earlier post.

1. The Revenue Collection Authorities are not to verify whether your deed is valid or not.

2. They will collect the revenue and mutate the name only.

3. Mutation does not legitimise a deed of conveyance per se.

Section 79 (3) is the relevant provision in your case, which says "Every acquisition of land otherwise than by way of inheritance or bequest in contravention of this section shall be null and void". Since your mother has executed a gift deed, it is inheritance, which is saved by this section.

.

1.Since land was purchased by your mother in 2007 and such purchase is subject satisfaction of provisions 79A and 79B Karnataka Land Reforms Act.

2. There are three conditions that have to be prove by you and your mother before purchasing such agricultural lands.

3. However the limit is enhanced to Rs.25 lakhs with retrospective effect, the relevant notification/amendment is as follows:

The Legislative Assembly on Friday passed the Karnataka Land Reforms (Amendment) Bill, 2015, to increase the income limit for non-agricultural sources to purchase farmland from Rs. 2 lakh to Rs. 25 lakh.

The Bill empowers deputy commissioners of districts, instead of assistant commissioners, to grant permission for non-agriculturists to purchase agricultural land under Section 80 of the Act.

In reply to the debate on the Bill, Revenue Minister V. Srinivas Prasad said taking into account inflation, which was nearly 300 per cent in the last two decades, the maximum income limit was fixed at Rs. 25 lakh. Despite opposition from some quarters, it was decided to fix the limit to prevent misuse of farmland, he said.

Mr. Prasad said the last income limit revision was in 1995 when the former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda was the Chief Minister. Mr. Gowda increased the income limit from Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 2 lakh. In 1991, the income limit was increased from Rs. 12,000 to Rs. 50,000, Mr. Prasad said.

First make sure that whether RTC stands in your mother's name. If RTC bears your mother's name even you can also be consider as a Agriculturist. [even though you are not doing agriculture by profession, you will be consider as agriculturist]. Your mother can gift the property in your name, this can be done before jurisdictional sub-registrar office.

As a matter of fact the ceiling limit has been raised to 25 lakhs even for non-agriculturist in Karnataka and land reforms act has been amended accordingly.

Hence you can take the help of an advocate and visit the concerned office to clarify the details.

Can a mother not gift her son agriculture land if his income was more than 2/lakh in 2014 in karnataka

It was only for non-agriculturists, since you are coming from an agricultural background, this clause may not be applicable to your case.

Then why did mutation and khata was transfered to beneficiary by revenue authorities.

You can first issue a legal notice questioning their authority and file a suit seeking direction to the DC to approve conversion on the basis of evidence and merits in your side.
