Buying Land in India- Things to note

Before you purchase any plot or land in India ensure that the following are checked:

1.Corporate Office (for urban areas eg CMDA) or Panchayat (for sub-urban & rural areas) to check the current and all prior ownership records

2.District Magistrate or City Development Authority (e.g. Delhi Development Authority) to check FSI, Land Ceiling rules, etc.


3. All relevant Courts of Law (High Court, District Court, Tribunal Courts) to check for current and/or prior disputes.

4. Qualified lawyers to review the agreement and terms of payment and possession

5. Locality and site survey to cross-check any illegal possession or current occupants. In several instances, deals satisfy conditions a-e but would have un-notified illegal occupants. delete
