What I think is It is already converted becasue I paid for sq yard not acres ?? 3. I haven't asked the seller before purchasing regarding this ? so if is converted it has to be registed in govt offices right ? if we can check the survey number in revenue departmment will i get the info regarding it ? 4. why should i convert it again if it is already convereted ???????

You have to check the revenue records whether land in question can be used for. Ommerica purposes or not
2) the development plan of your city would mention usage of land
3) it is better you approach revenue authorities in your city in this regard
For converting into non agriculture land, there is a procedure like to prove not suitable for agriculture, etc..
If it converted already, then your land will be in square feet
Through revenue record, you can fin even in online
1) Yes, agricultural land should be transfer to non agricultural i.e. N.A. Plot.
2) What you're talking about measurements and N.A is totally different clauses. To built a house or building a plot should be N.A plot. This N.A. Permission is granted by collector
3) What type of building is to built on that particular plot means purpose behind it whether residential or commercial use purpose. This is sanction by either collector or municipal corporation authority depending upon in which area land is situated.
4) To guide on this question I need to review property papers, whether you need to perform N.A. Procedure of plot or not.
1. The agricultural land has to be converted into NA for the purpose of commercial or residential or industrial etc.
2. You have to apply permission for conversion if conversion has not been done so far.
