Here’s what you need to know before you start!

✅ 1️⃣ First, check zoning:
✔️ Look up the Master Plan of your area.
✔️ Your land must be in a residential or future residential zone.
✔️ If it's not even marked for future residential, you can’t convert it just with fees or NOCs.
✔️ In such cases, you’ll need a zoning change first—which is tough and only happens during master plan updates or via special govt approval.

✅ 2️⃣ If your land is in the right zone:
You can apply for land use conversion to the Revenue Department.

✔️ The process usually needs:
🔹 Application form & fees
🔹 Latest RTC / Khata / land records
🔹 Approved survey sketch
🔹 Up-to-date tax paid receipts

✅ 3️⃣ NOCs required:
Most states ask for NOCs from key departments:
✔️ Town Planning / Urban Development
✔️ Local Panchayat or Municipality
✔️ Public Works Department (PWD) for road access
✔️ Agriculture Department (certifying it’s no longer needed for farming)

💡 These NOCs show the land is suitable for non-agricultural use.

✅ 4️⃣ Final Conversion Order:
After scrutiny and NOCs, the Deputy Commissioner or Tahsildar issues a conversion order.
✔️ You pay a conversion fee (varies by state & zone).
✔️ Your land is officially non-agricultural (residential).

✅ ⚠️ Important Tip:
NOCs alone aren’t enough if the zoning itself doesn’t allow residential use. Without being in a residential/future residential zone, your application will be rejected.
