Hi Lokesh...thanks for the reply.
1. The Rs. 500 i guess is for converting agricultural land for residential purposes in masterplan area. Can a developer convert agricultural area for residential development outside current masterplan?

2. Is there any official document/act listing the process you just said?
Kindly reply
