Agricultural land cannot be used for residential purpose.You need to get the land use converted from agricultural to residential before any construction. Different States have different procedures to do this.

You can convert agricultural land into residential land by paying a fee. You can get a 'change of land use' after obtaining the necessary approval from the local authorities.

It is better to contact any local lawyer for faultless advice, Vague answers will not give you the exact relief .

Hello

A house can be constructed on an agricultural land but that does not mean that the land becomes a residential one. It still remains an agricultural land in the revenue records. Therefore you can construct a house but the land would still be an agricultural one.

Dear Client,

As per the rules, a person can buy only 250 sq metres of agricultural land falling outside city area and matter is subjudice before Supreme Court.

Hello,

at present, the only prohibition on purchase and sale of land operates with respect to agricultural lands or lands outside municipal/cantonment limits, that too beyond 250 sq. mts. and not to any other kind of property.

Regards

The government permits an individual or any society to purchase residential land up to 250 sq. mtrs.

Thus that may be the extent permitted to construct residential house, however you may confirm the same from the local civic body/authority.
