Hello! I have land in Chaudwar, Orissa, and I need to know rules of converting argriculture land into residential land?

Q: A company sold me a plot to build a house on as residential land, and I have had it for six years. I did a patta on it, and they are asking for more money to convert it from agricultural land to residential land.

Hi, If the land was confirmed by occupancy right in the Land Tribunals As per Orissa Land Reforms Act (Amended in1965, 1973 and1974), Deputy Commissioner is the authority to issue conversion order. For other lands i.e. Patta lands, Tahsildar is the authority to issue conversion order.

Hi I think Application should be in prescribed Form-I for Land Reforms tenanted Lands and Form No.21A for Patta lands and it should be submitted to the Tahasildar concerned.

Hi Jovee, By default all lands are agricultural lands. Except for agriculture purpose, permission is necessary for non agricultural purposes like Residential, Commercial etc. which is known as Land Conversion i.e. changing the status of land from agriculture to Non-agriculture.
