Q: I own a flat in Uttarahalli which does not have A-Khata and there is no DC conversion for my apartment. Not sure why the builder has not done the DC conversion before building the apartment. Can I do the DC conversion now for my flat ? OR is it falls under Akrama-Sakrama ? Please advise.
DC Conversion is a legal mechanism, which is compulsory Under Section 95 of Karnataka Land Revenue Act that helps a property owners or an incumbent to make a formal application to the Deputy Commissioner of the District, asking for his permission for change of land utilization, from agricultural to nonagricultural (which may include Residential/Public Use/Commercial) purpose. The Jurisdictional revenue authority will acknowledge the application, depending on the rules and laws devised for this purpose, and subsequently, the order may be given.The Conversion fee/fine is imposed and an authorized, rather Official Memorandum (OM) is circulated to the applicant, guiding the applicant to ante up the same amount in the state treasury box. Only on the confirmation of payment of the amount, the Conversion Order will be issued by the Deputy Commissioner, however,the Conversion Oder will include certain terms and conditions. The owner/occupant must adhere to all the mentioned terms and conditions. The owner/occupant must adhere to all the mentioned terms and conditions of the conversion order in order to avoid the order becoming invalid or inoperational, without any kind of further notification to the owner.
The project is Amrutha Residency in Uttarahalli. What is the procedure for DC converting the entire building/apartment ? Is it possible for us to convert our apartment/building to DC conversion ? Or do we need to wait until the Akrama-Sakrama from govt. ? Please advice.
