Panchmahal — land purchase legal rules
Agricultural land in Gujarat can generally be bought only by an agriculturist, and farmer status is checked before a sale entry is certified. The other main checks are tenure (old or new), NA permission, the fragmentation limit and whether the area is notified under the Disturbed Areas Act.
Who can buy agricultural land? Section 63 of the Gujarat Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1948 is headed “Transfers to non-agriculturist barred”, and section 2(2) defines an agriculturist as a person who cultivates land personally. A commentary on the Supreme Court appeal Vinodchandra Sakarlal Kapadia v State of Gujarat (Civil Appeal 2573 of 2020) reports that the Gujarat High Court read section 63 to bar a transfer by an agriculturist to a non-agriculturist without the Collector’s permission, including by will (Mondaq, April 2021). Farmer status is checked from revenue records back to a cut-off of 6 April 1995, under Revenue Department circulars of 13 September 2024, and a self-declaration form goes with a sale entry or an NA application (SCC Online, September 2024). We read section 63 through these summaries, not its full text; confirm with a Gujarat revenue lawyer.
Will non-farmers be allowed to buy? A committee chaired by C. L. Meena studied the tenancy laws and its suggestions on non-farmer purchase were being assessed in November 2024, with no decision announced (Gujarat Samachar, November 2024; Gujarat Samachar, November 2024). We found no enacted change by October 2026, so the section 63 rule above is the one to plan on.
Ceiling limits: the Gujarat Agricultural Lands Ceiling Act, 1960 (Gujarat Act 27 of 1961, amendments compiled by PRS Legislative Research) bars a person from holding land above the ceiling area. Land of a spouse and minor children is grouped with the holder, a family of more than five may hold one-fifth of the ceiling area for each extra member up to twice the ceiling, and each major son counts as a separate person; in desert, hill and drought-prone areas the dry-crop ceiling is raised by 12.5% but cannot pass 21.85 hectares (54 acres). These points come from a legal-database copy of the Act that we do not link, because the India Code page did not open here; the class-wise acreage in Schedule I was not in the text we read, so we show no per-class figure.
Tenure, premium and NA permission: section 43 of the Tenancy Act is headed “Restriction on transfers of land purchased or sold under this Act”, which is the basis of what the press calls new tenure land, and the Collector’s office grants permission and collects a premium under it (Surat Collectorate). A government notification of 8 February 2024 lets a tenant who has farmed land for more than 15 years move it from new tenure to old tenure without a conversion fee, but the premium for NA use is still payable (LiveLaw, April 2025). NA (non-agricultural) permission is granted under section 65 of the Gujarat Land Revenue Code, 1879, and is deemed granted if the Collector does not decide within three months (same source); applications have been online since a December 2018 circular (SCC Online, September 2024). Press reports put the NA premium at about 35 to 40 per cent of land value (Gujarat Samachar, March 2024); we found no official schedule. The 2008 resolution on NA procedure also lists distance limits from railways, airports and Air Force installations (900 m) and from the sea high-tide line (500 m) (Revenue Department resolution, July 2008), which later circulars may have changed.
Fragmentation (tukda) limit: the Assembly passed the Gujarat Prevention of Fragmentation and Consolidation of Holdings (Amendment) Bill on 11 September 2026. As reported, it sets a uniform standard area of 10 gunthas (1,012 sq m) for rural land under a new section 5(4), leaves out municipal and urban development authority areas, and regularises violations from 1948 to 31 March 2026 without penalty; before this, buyers paid 10% of jantri value (DeshGujarat, September 2026). We did not see the Act text or any filing deadline.
Industrial and institutional exceptions: sections 63AA and 63AAA allow land bought for industrial, education or health use to be resold on payment of a share of jantri value that falls with the holding period, from 100% at three to five years to 25% beyond ten years (Gujarat Bill 23 of 2020, PRS Legislative Research). We have the Bill, not the enacted Act. A charity that bought in breach before 30 June 2015 may apply for conversion within a period the State notifies (Gujarat Bill 1 of 2024, PRS Legislative Research).
Disturbed Areas Act, 1991: where the State has notified an area under section 3, a transfer of land or buildings there needs the Collector’s prior sanction after an inquiry into free consent and fair value, and a transfer without it is void under section 5; contravention carries imprisonment of three to five years under section 6D (Gujarat Act 12 of 1991, PRS Legislative Research). A 2026 amendment renames these “specified areas”, adds a Monitoring and Advisory Committee and extends the Collector’s checks (Bill 18 of 2026; DeshGujarat, March 2026); the government notified the amendment in July 2026, with the effective date to be notified separately (DeshGujarat, July 2026). As a due-diligence step, ask the Collector or Sub-Registrar whether the survey number lies in a notified area; we hold no list of notified areas.
Land Grabbing Act, 2020 and tribal land: the Gujarat Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act, 2020 works through district committees, and in December 2024 a Gujarat High Court bench issued guidelines for those committees (LiveLaw, December 2024). Land held by Scheduled Tribe occupants is separately restricted under section 73AA of the Land Revenue Code, which the 2020 Bill cross-refers to (PRS Legislative Research); we did not open the Code, so check the occupant’s status in the 7/12.
NRI & OCI buyers: regulation 3 of the Foreign Exchange Management (Acquisition and Transfer of Immovable Property in India) Regulations, 2018 lets NRIs and OCIs buy land other than agricultural land, a farm house or plantation property (Reserve Bank of India, 2018 regulations). Residential and commercial land is open to them. The same section 63 rule applies to a resident non-farmer.

Panchmahal — district-specific notes
The Gujarat state page applies to Panchmahal in full. The notes below are specific to this district and are not repeated from the state page. UNESCO, PIB, the Mahisagar portal, the Forest Survey report and the CGWB profile opened; the Panchmahal portal, Revenue Department, AnyROR and gARVI did not, and the notes say where that matters.
⚠ Part of the district is a UNESCO World Heritage site: the Champaner-Pavagadh Archaeological Park, inscribed in 2004, covers 1,328.89 hectares with a 2,911.74 hectare buffer zone in Panchmahal (UNESCO World Heritage Centre). We did not open the protected-monument rules or the site management plan, so ask the Collector and the Archaeological Survey of India whether a survey number near Pavagadh falls inside the park, the buffer or a regulated area before agreeing a price.
⚠ Panchmahal appears in the Fifth Schedule list only as "Panchmahal Sabarkantha", a partially covered entry (Ministry of Panchayati Raj). That entry predates later district changes and names no talukas, so we cannot say which villages are scheduled. Land held by tribal owners is restricted, and the state page flags section 73AA of the Land Revenue Code as unconfirmed, so ask the Collector whether the village is scheduled.
⚠ District boundaries moved in 2013, when Mahisagar was formed from Panchmahal and Kheda (Mahisagar district portal), and one new Panchmahal taluka was reported in September 2025 (The Week, September 2025). Older records, deeds and maps may show a village under a former taluka or a different Sub-Registrar, so check that the revenue record, the deed and the registration office all name the same taluka.
⚠ Headlines on the outlet's Pavagadh tag page include a waterpark sealed in April 2025 for lacking clearance, and a cargo ropeway collapse that killed six people in September 2025 (DeshGujarat tag page; DeshGujarat, September 2025). Neither tells a buyer what is allowed on a given plot, but both show that approvals around the hill are enforced, so ask for the building and change-of-use permissions in writing.
⚠ The Disturbed Areas Act, 1991 requires the Collector's prior sanction for transfers in a notified area, and a 2026 amendment replaces "disturbed area" with "specified area" (DeshGujarat, July 2026). We obtained no list of notified areas, so ask the Collector or Sub-Registrar whether the survey number lies in one.

District overview
Panchmahal — a central Gujarat district around the Pavagadh hill
Panchmahal lies in east-central Gujarat and its best-known place is Pavagadh, where the Champaner-Pavagadh Archaeological Park was inscribed as a World Heritage site in 2004 (UNESCO). The district was cut down in 2013 when Mahisagar was formed from it and Kheda (Mahisagar district portal), so older figures overstate it: the CGWB profile's 5,210 sq km, 23,88,267 people and 11 talukas describe the earlier district (CGWB profile). Godhra Jn is listed among completed Amrit Bharat stations (PIB, March 2026).
We publish no per-acre price band for Panchmahal. No district or village jantri schedule was obtained and no asking-price series could be traced to registered deals. Jantri rates were reported doubled across the state from 15 April 2023 (DeshGujarat, February 2023). A jantri rate is the registration floor, not a market price.
Farming here is rain-fed and well-fed cropland with forest on the hills. The CGWB profile records maize on 1,210 sq km and rice on 760 sq km in 2004-05 on the older boundary, with the Mahi as the main perennial river, and the Forest Survey puts forest cover at 13.57% of the older district (Forest Survey of India, 2019). A Narmada pipeline scheme for 20 villages in Godhra and Ghoghamba was reported in March 2025 (DeshGujarat, March 2025).

The Comptroller and Auditor General's audit for the year ended 31 March 2018 states stamp duty on a conveyance at 4.9 per cent and gives no registration-fee rate for conveyances (CAG Report 3 of 2019); a later change is not ruled out. Jantri rates were reported doubled from 15 April 2023 (DeshGujarat, February 2023), and a revised draft was still pending in November 2024 (The Secretariat, November 2024). We found no Panchmahal schedule. Registration runs on gARVI 2.0 across 294 Sub-Registrar offices (IGR summary, undated); we could not open the portal, so ask the Sub-Registrar for the duty, the fee and the jantri on your survey number.
Know the belt
What is moving prices in Panchmahal
No price series exists in our sources for Panchmahal. What follows is project and boundary context that affects demand, each item dated.
Pavagadh ropeway extension
₹115 crore, groundbreaking planned for 1 May 2025
DeshGujarat reported on 29 April 2025 that the state would extend the Pavagadh ropeway from Dudhiya Talav closer to the temple, at an estimated ₹115 crore, with 8 cabins of 6 people and completion about a year after work starts (DeshGujarat, April 2025). A cargo ropeway collapsed on 6 September 2025, killing six (DeshGujarat, September 2025). We found no later report on the extension.
Check: the current status and any stop-work order with the district administration.
Narmada water for Godhra and Ghoghamba
₹31.62 crore, 20 villages (Mar 2025)
The Sarsav Group Scheme was reported to cover 20 villages, 16 in Godhra taluka and four in Ghoghamba, serving about 82,300 residents from a bulk pipeline off the Narmada main canal (DeshGujarat, March 2025). Piped water helps village living, but it is not a price series.
Check: whether the village is on the scheme and whether it has been commissioned.
Gujarat Day projects at Godhra
86 projects, ₹649.77 crore (planned 1 May 2025)
DeshGujarat reported that 86 development projects worth ₹649.77 crore were due to be launched or inaugurated on 1 May 2025, with Godhra as the venue, among them a milk-processing plant foundation and an industrial plant at Halol (DeshGujarat, April 2025). The report gives no per-project cost.
Check: which of these projects affect your village before treating the total as local demand.
Asking prices
No sourced price series
No listing-site prices are shown. The jantri rate is the only official reference and it is a floor for registration, not what a seller will accept (DeshGujarat, February 2023).
Check: registered sale deeds in the same village before negotiating.
Units: guntha, acre, vigha
Gujarat farmland is quoted in gunthas and acres: a guntha is about 1,089 sq ft (101 sq m) and 40 gunthas make an acre. The vigha varies by region and we found no official conversion for Panchmahal, so convert any quote to acres or gunthas and ask the seller which vigha is meant. We did not open a revenue manual for these definitions; ask the Mamlatdar's office.
Connectivity
How Panchmahal connects — road, rail and air
Distances and drive times are not given because no official or news source was found. Journey times vary with traffic and construction.

By rail & metro
The practical question is the road to the parcel; ask for the access road in the revenue record. The highway item rests on a single DeshGujarat report of January 2026 that names the crossings but gives no length, and the station item on PIB.

Agriculture & terrain
Soil, crops & water in Panchmahal
A central Gujarat district of maize and rice plains, forested hills and the perennial Mahi, measured on pre-2013 boundaries.
🌾 Farm plains (Godhra, Kalol, Ghoghamba)
The CGWB profile lists sandy, yellowish-brown and black cotton soils, and in 2004-05 maize on 1,210 sq km, rice on 760, wheat on 170 and bajra on 170, from a net sown area of 2,810 sq km (CGWB profile). These figures are for the pre-2013 district, so they overstate today's. Village-level soil data: Soil Health Card portal (not opened for this page).
- Maize
- Rice
- Wheat
- Bajra
⛰️ Pavagadh and the hills (Halol, Jambughoda)
Forest cover is 710.06 sq km, 13.57% of the older 5,231 sq km district, with no very dense forest and a fall of 26.94 sq km since the 2017 assessment (Forest Survey of India, 2019). The Pavagadh heritage park and its buffer sit in the district (UNESCO), so legal status matters more than soil here.
- Forest cover
- Pavagadh
- Heritage buffer
🌊 Mahi and other rivers
The Mahi is the main perennial river and drains most of the district westward; the Panam and Hadaf are also perennial, with the Goma, Kharod and others non-perennial (CGWB profile). We found no sourced flood record for Panchmahal, so ask the seller for flood history on any riverside parcel.
- Mahi
- Panam
- Hadaf
💧 Water & rainfall
Average annual rainfall is 823 mm, from about 649 mm at Godhra to 923 mm at Kalol over 1981 to 2011. In 2004-05 net irrigated area was 551 sq km, mostly from 25,507 dugwells, with canals at 33 sq km. The stage of groundwater development was 41.48% in 2011, with every taluka classed Safe (CGWB profile); that is for the older district and is 13 years old. Check borewell yield for any parcel.
📐 Measurement units
Gujarat land units: guntha ≈ 1,089 sq ft (101 sq m); 40 gunthas = 1 acre; vigha varies by region with no official conversion found. Convert every quote to acres or gunthas before comparing two offers. Live mandi prices are on Agmarknet (not opened for this page); crop income is modest next to land values, so price a parcel on location and permitted use, not on maize yield.

Farmland India view
Why investors look at Panchmahal
Five reasoned points, with an honest note that the price evidence is thin and several projects are still pending.
A heritage and pilgrimage anchor
The Champaner-Pavagadh site draws visitors year-round, and a ropeway extension at an estimated ₹115 crore was announced in April 2025. A cargo ropeway collapse in September 2025 and an unconfirmed schedule mean it is optionality, not a base for a premium.
Piped water reaching villages
A ₹31.62 crore Narmada scheme for 20 villages in Godhra and Ghoghamba was reported in March 2025. Water supply helps living and farming, but it is one scheme in two talukas.
Public spending announced
The state said it would launch 86 projects worth ₹649.77 crore around Godhra in May 2025. The report does not break the total down, so it cannot be tied to a village.
A rail junction upgraded
Godhra Jn is listed among completed Amrit Bharat stations. A better station is an access gain for the town, not a price signal for farmland.
A market that rewards paperwork
With heritage-buffer, scheduled-area, boundary-change and tenure questions all parcel-specific, a buyer who documents each one is better placed than one relying on a broker summary.
Confirm tenure, NA status, corridor and boundary questions directly; these are not certified by Farmland India’s review.
STRAIGHT TALK
Risks & challenges in Panchmahal
Read these before shortlisting in Panchmahal specifically.
No sourced price series
We use no listing-site prices for Panchmahal and obtained no jantri schedule. Collect registered comparables before negotiating.
Heritage site and buffer
The UNESCO park is 1,328.89 hectares with a 2,911.74 hectare buffer. Ask the Collector and the Archaeological Survey of India whether the survey number is inside either.
Boundary changes
Mahisagar was carved out in 2013 and a new taluka was reported in 2025. Check that the record, the deed and the Sub-Registrar all name the same taluka.
Scheduled areas
Panchmahal is listed only as a partially covered "Panchmahal Sabarkantha" entry with no talukas. Ask the Collector whether the village is scheduled before dealing with a tribal seller.
Farmer-status and tenure rules
Gujarat bars transfers to non-agriculturists under section 63 of the Tenancy Act, and new-tenure land carries a section 43 restriction. A non-farmer buyer should read the state page and check the seller's tenure in writing.
Announced is not delivered
The ropeway extension has no confirmed progress, the water scheme no commissioning report and the Gujarat Day total no breakdown. Price on today's fundamentals.
Dated district data
The CGWB profile uses 2004-05 crop data and 2011 groundwater and population data on the pre-2013 district. Use them as context, not as current figures.
Who to contact
Local revenue & planning offices
Mutation and revenue-record matters go through the Mamlatdar of the relevant taluka (for example Godhra, Halol, Kalol, Ghoghamba) and the Prant office (Deputy Collector) above it, with the District Collector at the top. NA permission and tenure-premium applications go to the Collector, with the 2008 resolution setting out the NA permission limits; town-planning questions go to the relevant urban development authority under the Gujarat Town Planning and Urban Development Act, 1976. Heritage questions near Pavagadh also involve the Archaeological Survey of India. Sale-deed registration is handled by the local Sub-Registrar on gARVI, and records are on AnyROR. We could not open the district portal, the Revenue Department, AnyROR or gARVI, so check them directly for office details.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
Everything buyers, NRIs and investors ask before their first reviewed farmland purchase in Panchmahal.
Visit full wiki01 of 04
What does agricultural land cost in Panchmahal?
We publish no per-acre band for Panchmahal because no district or village jantri schedule was obtained and no asking-price series could be traced to registered deals. The only official reference we can report is the state-wide doubling of jantri rates from 15 April 2023 (DeshGujarat, February 2023). A jantri rate is a registration floor, not a market price, so collect registered comparables from the same village.
02 of 04
Can a non-farmer buy farmland in Panchmahal?
Gujarat's Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act bars transfers to non-agriculturists under section 63, and Panchmahal follows the state rule. A proposal to open purchase to non-farmers was under review in November 2024 and we found nothing enacted by October 2026. Read the Gujarat state page and ask the Collector's office to confirm the seller's tenure in writing.
03 of 04
Does the Pavagadh heritage site affect land near it?
The Champaner-Pavagadh Archaeological Park, inscribed by UNESCO in 2004, covers 1,328.89 hectares with a 2,911.74 hectare buffer zone in Panchmahal. We did not open the protected-monument rules, so ask the Collector and the Archaeological Survey of India whether a survey number falls inside the park, the buffer or a regulated area.
04 of 04
Why are older Panchmahal figures unreliable?
Mahisagar district was formed in 2013 from Panchmahal and Kheda, and one new Panchmahal taluka was reported in September 2025. The CGWB profile's 5,210 sq km, 23,88,267 people and 11 talukas describe the earlier district, so treat them as context. Check that the revenue record, the deed and the Sub-Registrar all name the same taluka.
