Must-Have Documents Before Buying Agricultural Land in India
16 February 2025, New Delhi: Legal verification is vital when purchasing agricultural land to avoid fraudulent transactions. Key documents include the Title Deed, which confirms ownership, and the Encumbrance Certificate, ensuring there are no outstanding dues, mortgages, or legal disputes associated with the land. The Record of Rights (RTC/7-12 Extract) provides a historical account of ownership and cultivation details, helping buyers verify past transactions and legal standing.
Mutation Records confirm that the land is legally transferred to the current owner, and a Survey Map is necessary to verify land boundaries and avoid encroachment issues. Additionally, buyers should check for Land Conversion Certificates if the land was previously non-agricultural and is being repurposed. A thorough verification of these documents safeguards the buyer’s investment and prevents potential legal conflicts.
