Sub-divisions
Ten talukas by our count: Rajkot, Kotada Sangani, Paddhari, Lodhika, Jasdan, Gondal, Jetpur, Dhoraji, Upleta and Jamkandorna. The CGWB booklet of November 2013 lists 14 talukas; four of them (Morbi, Maliya, Tankara, Wankaner) now sit in Morbi district, created on 15 August 2013 (Morbi district portal). Check for talukas added since.

Rail
Rail reached Rajkot in 1889 (Wankaner) and 1893 (Jetalsar) (Gujarat NRI portal, Rajkot history); the district portal describes Western Railway broad gauge (Rajkot district portal). Current train and electrification detail was not sourced.
Size and population
11,203 sq km · 38,04,558 people (Rajkot district portal, October 2026). The CGWB booklet gives the same area and 37,99,770 people for the 14-taluka district, so both figures probably predate the 2013 split and overstate today's district.
Pricing unit
Usually quoted per vigha, guntha or acre in local trade; no official per-acre schedule was seen
Local units
Guntha = about 1,089 sq ft (101 sq m) · 40 gunthas = 1 acre · Vigha varies by region, so ask for the survey-number area

Rajkot — 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.
- Agriculturists only (s.63)
- Ceiling Act 1960
- NA via s.65
- Fragmentation: 10 gunthas
- Disturbed Areas Act
- NRI agri: barred (RBI 2018)

Rajkot — district-specific notes
The Gujarat state page applies to Rajkot in full. The notes below are specific to this district and are not repeated from the state page. Law is taken from the state page's statute copies and news reports; the Revenue Department and AnyROR pages did not open for us, and the notes say where that matters.
⚠ Most Rajkot farmland is covered by the farmer-status rule. Under section 63 of the Gujarat Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1948, a transfer to a non-agriculturist is barred; an agriculturist is a person who cultivates land personally (Mondaq, April 2021). The Revenue Department set a 6 April 1995 cut-off and a self-declaration form in September 2024 circulars (SCC Online, September 2024), and a proposal to let non-farmers buy was still under review in November 2024 (Gujarat Samachar, November 2024). We found nothing enacted by October 2026. Land bought under the Act's restricted tenure also needs Collector permission to sell (LiveLaw, April 2025).
⚠ A farmhouse, godown or plot needs non-agricultural (NA) permission under section 65 of the Land Revenue Code, deemed granted if the Collector does not decide in three months (LiveLaw, April 2025). The premium is reported at about 35 to 40% of land value (Gujarat Samachar, March 2024); we found no official schedule. A 2008 Revenue Department order sets a 900 m limit from railway lines and airports (Revenue Department GR, July 2008). That order may have been superseded, and we found no notification specific to Hirasar airport or the Rajkot rail lines, so ask for the limit in writing for any parcel close to either.
⚠ Small plots are restricted by the fragmentation law. The Assembly passed an amendment on 11 September 2026 setting a rural standard area of 10 gunthas (1,012 sq m) and regularising violations from 1948 to 31 March 2026 without penalty (DeshGujarat, September 2026). We have not seen the Act text or its deadlines.
⚠ The Gujarat Disturbed Areas Act requires prior Collector sanction for sales in notified areas (Act text, PRS); a 2026 amendment renames them "specified areas" (DeshGujarat, July 2026). We did not obtain a list of notified areas, so ask the Collector or Sub-Registrar whether the survey number is in one.
⚠ The Gujarat Agricultural Lands Ceiling Act, 1960 raises the dry-crop ceiling by 12.5% in drought-prone areas, capped at 21.85 ha (Act compilation, PRS). We could not confirm how the Act classifies Rajkot villages; Down To Earth noted in September 2026 that the state had not declared drought in its deficit districts (Down To Earth, September 2026).

District overview
Rajkot — Saurashtra's largest city district with a new greenfield airport
Rajkot sits in central Saurashtra, bordered by Morbi and Surendranagar to the north, Bhavnagar and Botad to the east, Junagadh to the south and Jamnagar to the west (Rajkot district portal, October 2026). The portal gives 11,203 sq km and 38,04,558 people, but Morbi district was carved out on 15 August 2013 (Morbi district portal) and the same area appears in a 14-taluka CGWB booklet (CGWB, November 2013), so treat both as pre-split figures. The district's own 2026 area and population are not published on the pages we could open.
The city was founded in 1610 on the Aji river, and the railway arrived in 1889 (Gujarat NRI portal). Hirasar airport, about 30 km from the city on 1,500 acres at a cost of ₹1,405 crore, was scheduled for inauguration on 27 July 2023 (AIR News, July 2023). We found no report on its current flight schedule.
We publish no per-acre price band for Rajkot. No district or village jantri schedule opened, and listing-site asking prices could not be traced to registered deals. The state raised jantri rates from 15 April 2023 (DeshGujarat, February 2023), and a revised draft was pending in November 2024 (The Secretariat, November 2024). Rainfall matters here: Rajkot was 35% below normal at 7 September 2026 (Down To Earth, September 2026).

The 4.9% figure comes from a state audit covering the year ended 31 March 2018 (CAG Report 3 of 2019); a later change cannot be ruled out. Jantri, the state guideline value, was doubled from 15 April 2023 after about twelve years (DeshGujarat, February 2023), and a revised draft for agricultural land was pending in November 2024 (The Secretariat, November 2024). We did not obtain a Rajkot district or village schedule. Registration runs through gARVI 2.0 in 294 Sub-Registrar offices (IGR summary); the gARVI portal did not open for us.
Know the belt
What is moving prices in Rajkot
Few official numbers exist for Rajkot: the state-wide jantri history, one airport report and one corridor request. No listing-site prices are used.
Jantri and registration floors
No district schedule seen
The state doubled jantri from 15 April 2023 (DeshGujarat, February 2023). Draft revised rates for agricultural land were reported pending in November 2024 (The Secretariat, November 2024). We did not find a Rajkot taluka or village rate on any page that opened.
Check: the current jantri for the village at the Sub-Registrar before agreeing a price.
Hirasar airport belt
Airport open since July 2023, no price series
Hirasar airport covers about 1,500 acres and lies about 30 km from Rajkot city (AIR News, July 2023). The state named local industry as a beneficiary at the inauguration (AIR News, July 2023). We found no land-rate report for the surrounding villages.
Check: the 900 m railway and airport limit in the 2008 order and any NA conditions for the survey number.
Gondal, Jetpur and Dhoraji
Corridor still pending
The Chief Minister asked the Union minister in November 2025 to expedite the Rajkot–Gondal–Jetpur corridor (AIR News, November 2025). The report gives no cost, length or date for the Rajkot stretch.
Check: the NHAI alignment and any Section 3 notification before relying on frontage.
Asking prices
No sourced price series
Listing-site asking prices for Rajkot could not be traced to registered deals, so none appear on this page.
Check: registered sale deeds in the same village before negotiating.
Units: guntha, acre, vigha
Gujarat records use the guntha (about 1,089 sq ft, or 101 sq m); 40 gunthas make an acre. The vigha varies by region and we found no official conversion for Saurashtra, so read the area from the 7/12 extract rather than from a vigha quote.
Connectivity
How Rajkot connects — road, rail and air
Distances from Rajkot city to other cities are not given because no official or news source was found. Journey times vary with traffic and road works.

The practical question is the last leg from the highway to the parcel; ask whether the approach road is a public road, a panchayat track or a farm path in the revenue record. See also the Gujarat agricultural land rules.

Agriculture & terrain
Soil, crops & water in Rajkot
A cotton-and-oilseed district on Deccan Trap rock, where dug wells carry irrigation and the monsoon decides the crop.
🌾 Crops (district before the 2013 split)
The CGWB booklet gives 2006-07 figures for the 14-taluka district: total cropped area 9,043 sq km, of which oilseeds 4,370 sq km, cotton 2,530 sq km, cereals 1,160 sq km (wheat 840, bajra 270, jowar 50) and pulses 180 sq km (CGWB, November 2013). Morbi district now holds part of this area, and no current Rajkot crop series opened. Rajkot is not among the five leading castor districts (DESAGRI).
- Oilseeds
- Cotton
- Wheat
- Bajra
⛰️ Rock and aquifers
The main aquifer is the Deccan Trap basalt, about 8,850 sq km, in weathered and fractured zones; sandstone lies in the north-east and poor-yielding alluvium near Maliya and Morbi (CGWB, November 2013). Dug wells numbered 91,109 and irrigated about 2,513 sq km net in 2006-07. Water levels before the monsoon of 2012-13 ranged from 0.78 m at Maliya to 22.45 m at Pedhla. Test yield and depth for each parcel, because basalt varies sharply.
- Deccan Trap
- Dug wells
- Basalt
🌧️ Rain and canal water
CGWB gives 592 mm average annual rainfall, and the Rajkot station recorded 709.8 mm (IMD averages from 1951-1980) (CGWB, November 2013). In 2026 Rajkot was 35% below normal at 7 September, and farmers visited by Down To Earth in August had wilted crops and dry dams and wanted SAUNI releases (Down To Earth, September 2026). Sardar Sarovar reached full level on 30 September 2026 (AIR News, September 2026).
- SAUNI
- Narmada
- Aji-I
💧 Groundwater
CGWB put the stage of development at 65.34% in March 2011, with all 14 assessment units classed safe; replenishable resource was 1,528.25 MCM against a draft of 948.65 MCM (CGWB, November 2013). That is 15 years old and covers the undivided district. The 2024 state assessment has no district-wise stage (CGWB, Gujarat 2024), and the press report on north Gujarat stress does not name Rajkot (Gujarat Samachar, September 2026). Check the borewell yield and well permission on the parcel.
📐 Measurement units
Gujarat land is recorded in gunthas (about 1,089 sq ft) with 40 gunthas to the acre; the vigha differs by region and we found no official conversion. Crop income is modest next to land values near the city, and we use no mandi price series.

Farmland India view
Why investors look at Rajkot
Five reasoned points, with an honest note that the price evidence is thin and rainfall risk is real.
A city district with an airport
Hirasar airport has been open since July 2023 on 1,500 acres about 30 km from Rajkot (AIR News, July 2023). Buyers near the city fringe are betting on that access, but we found no current flight schedule.
Canal water is arriving, unevenly
Aji-I has received SAUNI water since 2017 and Phase II adds drinking-water supply for Rajkot (Ministry of Jal Shakti). In 2026 farmers still reported dry dams, so supply has not removed rainfall risk (Down To Earth, September 2026).
A road corridor still on the wish list
The Rajkot–Gondal–Jetpur corridor has a state request but no reported length, cost or date (AIR News, November 2025). It is a reason to watch Gondal and Jetpur, not yet a reason to pay for frontage.
Wells and basalt, not rivers
Irrigation rests on dug wells in Deccan Trap rock, which gives a parcel-by-parcel water story (CGWB, November 2013). A parcel with documented yield is worth more than a bare survey number.
A market that rewards paperwork
With the farmer-status rule, NA permission, the fragmentation amendment and jantri changes all parcel-specific, a buyer who documents each one is better placed than one relying on a broker summary. The return case is location and permitted use, not crop yield.
Confirm farmer-status, NA, fragmentation and jantri status directly; these are not certified by Farmland India’s review.
STRAIGHT TALK
Risks & challenges in Rajkot
Read these before shortlisting in Rajkot specifically.
Farmer-status rule
Section 63 of the Tenancy Act bars transfer to a non-agriculturist (India Code). A non-farmer buyer needs a lawful route, and the September 2024 verification circulars are known only through commentary (SCC Online, September 2024).
Rainfall deficit
Rajkot stood 35% below normal rainfall on 7 September 2026, and no drought had been declared (Down To Earth, September 2026). Irrigation-dependent returns carry weather risk.
Stale district figures
The portal area and population appear to predate the 2013 creation of Morbi district. Do not use the 11,203 sq km figure for per-taluka maths.
NA and airport limits
NA premium is reported at 35 to 40% of land value (Gujarat Samachar, March 2024), and a 2008 order set a 900 m limit near railways and airports (GR, July 2008). Ask for both in writing for any parcel near Hirasar or a rail line.
Disturbed Areas Act
Sales in notified areas need Collector sanction and unsanctioned ones can be void (Act text, PRS). We obtained no list of notified areas.
Announced is not delivered
The Rajkot–Gondal–Jetpur corridor has no reported date, and the airport schedule is unsourced. Treat both as unproven for pricing.
No sourced price series
We use no listing-site prices for Rajkot, and the jantri schedule did not open. A negotiated price needs registered comparables.
Who to contact
Local revenue, planning & forest offices
Mutation and revenue-record matters go through the Mamlatdar of the taluka, with appeals to the Prant (sub-division) officer and the District Collector at Rajkot; the district portal home page lists land records under its quick links (Rajkot district portal). NA permission is decided by the Collector under the Land Revenue Code (LiveLaw, April 2025). Sale deeds are registered at the Sub-Registrar office for the taluka through gARVI, and records sit on AnyROR; office details should be on the Gujarat Revenue Department site. We could not open the Revenue Department, AnyROR or gARVI pages, so we name offices without addresses and publish no phone numbers. Layout and development permission falls to the relevant urban development authority under the Gujarat Town Planning and Urban Development Act, 1976, which we also did not open.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
Everything buyers, NRIs and investors ask before their first reviewed farmland purchase in Rajkot.
Visit full wiki01 of 04
What does agricultural land cost in Rajkot?
We publish no per-acre band for Rajkot because no district or village jantri schedule opened for us and listing-site asking prices could not be traced to registered deals. The state raised jantri from 15 April 2023 (DeshGujarat, February 2023), and a revised draft was pending in November 2024 (The Secretariat). Jantri is a registration floor, not a market price.
02 of 04
Can a non-farmer buy agricultural land in Rajkot?
Section 63 of the Gujarat Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1948 bars transfers to non-agriculturists, and the state issued farmer-verification circulars in September 2024 (SCC Online). A proposal to relax the rule was under review in November 2024 and we found nothing enacted by October 2026. Ask a Gujarat lawyer and the Mamlatdar before signing.
03 of 04
What stamp duty applies to land in Rajkot?
A state audit put stamp duty on conveyance at 4.9% for the year ended 31 March 2018 (CAG Report 3 of 2019). We found no registration-fee rate for land deeds and no current notification, so confirm both with the Sub-Registrar.
04 of 04
Which infrastructure affects Rajkot?
Hirasar airport, about 30 km from the city, was scheduled for inauguration on 27 July 2023 (AIR News), and SAUNI has fed the Aji-I reservoir since 2017. The Rajkot–Gondal–Jetpur corridor had only an expedite request in November 2025 (AIR News), with no length, cost or date reported.
