Procedure to convert Agricultural land to Non-Agricultural land
- An obligatory consent is necessary from the local authorities to get a ‘change of land use.’ An application form has to be sent to the Commissioner of the Land Revenue Department clarifying the reason behind conversion.
2. Following documents should be attached with the application letter:
- Original Sale Deed (or gift/partition deed)
- Mutation Letter
- Certified survey map
- Latest tax paid receipt
- ID Proof
3. Fee Payment: When agricultural land is converted to non-agricultural land an obligatory fee is essential to be paid depending on the kind of the property and its locality.
4. Details such as the extent of land, mortgages, kind of crops and soil, names of the previous and present owners, etc. need to be mentioned.
5. Certified copies of the documents as mentioned earlier can be acquired from the Tahasildar or Revenue Office. All the unpaid dues should be paid, and copies of payment proof need to be added.
6. Now it is the duty of the Deputy Commissioner, or Collector authorized to permit the conversion of agricultural land to non-agricultural land. Deputy Commissioner or Collector will permit conversion only if they’re convinced that necessary conditions have been met and there are no pending dues or litigation on the land.
7. The conversion ought to be permissible under the master plan of the land. A conversion order permitting the change in land from agricultural to non-agricultural will then be issued.
