Land law is state law. These rules are maintained on the Madhya Pradesh page and apply to every district within it.
Indore — land purchase legal rules
⚠ Madhya Pradesh does not run on a single rule for farmland. Tribal land, land above the holding ceiling, diverted land and ordinary farmland each follow a different track, and the Collector’s office sits at the centre of the first. Work out which track a parcel is on before looking at the price.
Which office decides what: A member of a tribe that the Code treats as aboriginal needs written permission from a revenue officer of at least Collector rank to sell land outside a notified area, and in a notified area the bar on sale to a non-tribal is absolute (section 165(6); Supreme Court, April 2025). The Supreme Court accepted in April 2025 that an Additional Collector can grant that permission under a valid work-allocation order (Lawyer E-News, April 2025). Sale deeds are registered through the Registration Department, which launched the Sampada 2.0 online registration system in October 2024 (The Statesman, October 2024).
Section 165 and tribal land: The April 2025 judgment concerned 6.29 hectares in Ratlam district outside the notified tehsils; the sale went through because the Additional Collector had given written permission, the price was above market value and a 10-year bar on changing the land’s use was attached under section 165(6-ee) (Supreme Court, April 2025). The High Court had earlier upheld the same sale and noted the Patwari’s report, the sellers’ need to fund a marriage and settle loans, and the land they kept (High Court, October 2023). Permission is a gate, not a formality: a sale with no permission is exposed. Under section 170B a transfer made by fraud can be reverted to the tribal owner or heirs, and the Supreme Court in March 2019 held that a civil court could not revisit a Collector’s 1985 section 170B order that had survived a writ petition (Supreme Court, March 2019).
Wills and indirect transfers: In February 2025 the High Court held that “transfer” in section 165(6) is not confined to sale and covers a Will of tribal land in favour of a non-tribal, so Collector permission was needed there too (High Court, February 2025). A buyer cannot assume that an inheritance document or a power of attorney avoids the permission step. There is a narrow carve-out: in October 2024 the High Court, relying on an older Division Bench ruling, held that sections 165(6) and 170 do not apply to Nazul land in an urban area, and sent the question of whether a given parcel was Nazul or Abadi back to the Additional Commissioner (High Court, October 2024).
Diversion and the Code: Turning farmland to another use is a diversion. A June 2022 High Court order refers to land “diverted under section 172” to non-agricultural purposes, and the Supreme Court has described section 59 as allowing reassessment of land revenue on a change of use, with a premium that the Sub-Divisional Officer may impose (High Court, June 2022; Supreme Court, August 2008). We could not read the current text of sections 172 and 190, so this page does not describe their procedure or fees, and a seller’s diversion order should be read in full, not taken on trust.
Ceiling on holdings: The Madhya Pradesh Ceiling on Agricultural Holdings Act, 1960 caps how much one holder or family may hold and provides for acquiring surplus land. In the 2021 case the Supreme Court quoted section 7(b) as allowing a family of five or fewer 54 acres, and set aside surplus declarations where a pending suit had not been disclosed (Supreme Court, January 2021). A legal-database copy of the Act lists three tiers for a family of five or fewer: 18 acres of two-crop irrigated land, 27 acres of one-crop irrigated land and 54 acres of dry land, and says land cannot be transferred before the final ceiling order without the Collector’s written permission, unless the holder is within the ceiling (legal database text of the 1960 Act). Treat those figures as the Act’s text as published there, and have a lawyer check the current schedule before buying a large holding.
Who may buy: None of the court orders or Act texts we opened bars a buyer simply for not being a farmer; the limits that turned up were the tribal-land permission in section 165(6) and the ceiling on holdings. We found no state notice listing other buyer conditions, so confirm with the Registration Department and the Collector’s office that none applies to the district you are looking at.
Registration and stamping: The Indian Stamp (Madhya Pradesh Second Amendment) Act, 2025 was published on 17 December 2025 and changes how short-stamped documents are handled, including a penalty of 1% of the deficient portion per month (TeamLease RegTech, December 2025). Duty rates are covered in the stamp duty section below.
Land records: Madhya Pradesh land records (khasra and the B-1 extract) are issued through the state’s MP Bhulekh portal. We could not open that portal for this page and found no independent description of its current fields or fees, so ask the seller for a fresh extract and compare the survey number, area and recorded owner with the sale deed.
NRI and OCI buyers: The Reserve Bank’s Master Direction under FEMA 1999 excludes agricultural land, plantation land and a farm house from what NRIs and OCIs may buy, in Madhya Pradesh as elsewhere (RBI Master Direction FED 12/2015-16, updated to September 2022). They can buy other immovable assets such as residential or commercial sites, and inheritance is treated separately in the Direction. Benami-law exposure was not checked against the Act text for this page, so take legal advice before using a nominee.

Indore — district-specific notes
The Madhya Pradesh state page applies to Indore in full. The notes below are specific to this district and are not repeated from the state page. Law was read from Supreme Court and MP High Court orders and legal-database copies of Acts; the Land Revenue Code, MP Bhulekh and Registration Department pages could not be opened, and the notes say so where it matters.
⚠ Land on Indore’s edge is often drawn into a planning scheme or a road project. The Indore Development Authority’s Ahilyapath scheme, tied to the Simhastha 2028 works, has a target of taking 60% of the land through town planning schemes, and farmers around Nainod, Rislai and Bada Bangarda objected in August 2026, saying it restricts using, developing or selling their land (Free Press Journal, August 2026). Ask the authority whether a survey number sits inside a scheme, a corridor or a bypass alignment before paying anything. We could not open the Indore master plan, so read the zone from the authority’s own map.
⚠ Tribal-land permission works as on the state page: a sale of land held by a tribal member needs written permission from a revenue officer of Collector rank or above under section 165(6) of the Land Revenue Code, 1959, and in a notified area the bar on sale to a non-tribal is absolute (Supreme Court, April 2025). We found no list of notified tribal villages for Indore, so ask the Collector’s office whether the recorded holder is a tribal member and whether the village is in a notified area before paying a deposit.
⚠ A house, farmhouse or any other non-agricultural use needs diversion of the land. A June 2022 High Court order refers to land “diverted under section 172” (High Court, June 2022), the Supreme Court has described section 59 as allowing reassessment on a change of use with a premium (Supreme Court, August 2008), and a legal-database copy of the 2018 amending Act lists section 172 as deleted and section 59 as substituted (Legitquest). We have not read the Code itself, so ask the Collector’s office for the diversion route and fees now in force.
⚠ The Ceiling on Agricultural Holdings Act, 1960 limits what one family may hold. The Supreme Court quoted 54 acres for a family of five or fewer (Supreme Court, January 2021), and a legal-database copy lists tiers of 18, 27 and 54 acres by irrigation class (legal database). We could not confirm the current schedule, so check it before assembling a large holding.
⚠ We found no district-specific notification on forest, eco-sensitive or tiger-reserve buffer land for Indore in the sources opened. Ask the Forest Department’s divisional office and the Collector for a written status on any survey number near a forest block, hill or river bank.

District overview
Indore — the cleanest city in India, with a corridor-led edge
Indore district covers 3,898 sq km at an average elevation of about 553 m, with roughly 32.7 lakh people in the 2011 provisional count and five tehsils: Indore, Mhow, Sanwer, Depalpur and Hatod (MSME-DI Indore profile). The city topped the Swachh Survekshan 2024-25 rankings for the eighth year running (The Tribune, July 2025; AIR News, July 2025). We found no sourced figure for the city’s share of state output, so none is given.
We found no registered-deed series for farm land. Indore’s guideline rates rose about 4.42% on average for 2023-24, with 202 new locations (Free Press Journal, March 2023), and the March 2026 reports on the 2026-27 revision carried no Indore figure. The estimated bands on this page, from about ₹15 lakh to ₹3 crore per acre*, are wide and indicative; the road belt towards Ujjain sits at the top and the hill-edge and outer farm belts at the bottom.
Growth on the edge is road-led. A six-lane Indore–Ujjain road is under construction, a 48 km Hatod–Simhastha bypass was proposed in January 2025, and land is being pooled for the Indore–Pithampur Economic Corridor (Swarajya, December 2025). The Indore Metro missed its sixth deadline in June 2026 (Free Press Journal, June 2026). Farm land here is priced against those corridors and against the Ahilyapath scheme.

A deed short-stamped under the Second Amendment Act published on 17 December 2025 attracts a penalty of 1% of the deficient portion per month (TeamLease RegTech, December 2025). Deeds are registered online through Sampada 2.0, launched in October 2024 (The Statesman, October 2024). We found no Indore-specific guideline figure for 2026-27 in the reports opened, so check the notified rate for the village and survey number with the Sub-Registrar.
Know the belt
What is moving prices in Indore
Official revisions and corridor news, plus wide indicative price bands marked *. No registered-deed series was found.
Indore–Ujjain road belt: Hatod and Sanwer
Estimated land price*: ₹80 lakh–3 crore per acre
The six-lane road and the proposed 48 km Hatod–Simhastha bypass (29 villages and more than 350 hectares, DPR pending in January 2025) are the main drivers on this side (Free Press Journal, January 2025). Outlets differ on the road’s length, cost and date (Free Press Journal, October 2024; Construction World, March 2025). The band is wide and rounded and is not a deal price.
Check: whether the survey number falls inside the bypass alignment, the road right-of-way or a town planning scheme.
Indore–Pithampur Economic Corridor villages
Land pooling in progress
The corridor covers 17 villages and 1,177 hectares, of which 954 hectares are private; by December 2025 about 295 hectares had landowner consent and the cost was put at more than ₹2,400 crore (Swarajya, December 2025).
Check: which villages are in the pooling list and whether the owner has already consented.
Ahilyapath scheme
IDA target: 60% of land through town planning schemes
Farmers in several villages objected in August 2026 to more of their land being drawn into the scheme (Free Press Journal, August 2026). The article does not give a total acreage.
Check: the scheme status of the survey number in writing from the Indore Development Authority.
Guideline rates
2023-24: about 4.42% average rise
Free Press Journal reported 202 new locations and rises of 10% to 50% in 779 areas for 2023-24 (Free Press Journal, March 2023). We found no later Indore figure. A guideline rate is a registration floor, not a market price.
Check: the rate in force for the village on the sale-deed date.
Depalpur, outer Sanwer and Mhow
Estimated land price*: ₹25–80 lakh per acre (outer farm belts); ₹15–50 lakh (Mhow hill edge)
Away from the road corridors, parcels are priced mainly on soil, irrigation and road access. We found no dated rate or award for these belts, so both bands are wide, indicative ranges.
Check: borewell yield, the access road in the revenue record and any forest or hill restriction.
Units: acres, hectares and local terms
Court orders and Act texts we read give land in hectares and acres, while local units used by sellers can differ from tehsil to tehsil, so we do not fix a conversion for them. Convert every quote to acres or hectares (1 hectare = 2.47 acres) and ask the Patwari for the area in the record before comparing two offers.

Agriculture & terrain
Soil, crops & water in Indore
A soybean-wheat district on deep soils, with irrigation led by bore wells and old groundwater data that should be rechecked.
🌾 Soil and crops
The ICAR-CRIDA contingency plan for Indore (file dated 31 December 2012, so old data) gives deep soils on 60.9% of the area and shallow soils on 33.4%, with soybean on 219.8 thousand hectares in kharif and wheat (127.2) and chickpea (32.2) in rabi (ICAR-CRIDA Indore plan). Village-level soil data sits on the Soil Health Card portal, which we did not open.
- Soybean
- Wheat
- Chickpea
💧 Irrigation
The same plan records a net sown area of 264.2 thousand hectares, of which 176.7 thousand is irrigated and 66.6% of that irrigation comes from bore wells (ICAR-CRIDA Indore plan). Borewell depth and permission matter for any parcel without canal water.
- Bore wells
- Irrigated 176.7k ha
🏗️ Farm land under planning pressure
Parcels near Nainod, Rislai and Bada Bangarda are inside the area where the Ahilyapath town planning scheme is being contested (Free Press Journal, August 2026). The scheme status decides what can be built or sold, so ask for it in writing.
- Ahilyapath
- Town planning scheme
💧 Rainfall & groundwater
Normal annual rainfall is 960.9 mm in the plan. That plan classed groundwater development as over-exploited at 104%, which is old. The Central Ground Water Board’s 2024 state assessment puts Madhya Pradesh as a whole at 58.40% (Safe) and lists Indore among the districts with nitrate above 45 mg/L at sporadic locations (CGWB, 2024); we did not find the 2024 Indore figure, so ask for a borewell record and a water test.
📐 Measurement units
Court orders and Act texts we read use hectares and acres; local units vary by tehsil, so convert every quote before comparing offers (1 hectare = 2.47 acres). Live wholesale mandi prices are on Agmarknet (not opened for this page); price a parcel on location and permitted use, not on crop income.

Farmland India view
Why investors look at Indore
Five reasoned points, with an honest note that the price evidence is thin and several corridors are still pending.
Roads are being built around the city
A six-lane road to Ujjain is under construction, a bypass was proposed for Simhastha 2028 and land is being pooled for the Pithampur corridor (Swarajya, December 2025). Dates differ by outlet, so price on today’s roads.
A state-leading city market
Indore topped the Swachh Survekshan 2024-25 rankings for the eighth year running (The Tribune, July 2025). That is a cleanliness ranking, not a land-price indicator, so read it as a sign of civic management only.
Planning schemes can help or hurt
The Ahilyapath scheme may bring roads and services to edge villages, but farmers say it restricts use and sale (Free Press Journal, August 2026). A buyer who gets the scheme status in writing is better placed.
Guideline rates move
Indore’s rates rose about 4.42% on average for 2023-24 (Free Press Journal, March 2023); we found no later figure. Use the rate in force on the deed date as a floor, not a forecast.
A paperwork-led market
Tribal-land permission, diversion, the holding ceiling and scheme status are all parcel-specific. The return case rests on location and permitted use, not on crop yield.
Confirm land-use, tribal-land and guideline-rate status directly; these are not certified by Farmland India’s review.
Risks & challenges in Indore
Read these before shortlisting in Indore specifically.
Mid-conversion peripheral land
Farmers around Nainod, Rislai and Bada Bangarda objected in August 2026 to more land being drawn into the Ahilyapath scheme (Free Press Journal, August 2026). Ask the Indore Development Authority for the status of the survey number.
Tribal and diverted land
Selling tribal-held land outside a notified area needs written permission from a revenue officer of Collector rank or above (Supreme Court, April 2025). Land diverted to non-agricultural use is reassessed under section 59 (Supreme Court, August 2008).
Stamp duty and registration cost
Reported at 7.5% duty and 3% fee, about 10.5% together (Dainik Jagran English, March 2026); the Registration Department’s page was not opened. A short-stamped deed attracts a 1% a month penalty (TeamLease RegTech, December 2025).
Announced is not delivered
The metro missed its sixth deadline in June 2026 (Free Press Journal, June 2026), the ring road has no report after July 2023, and the expressway DPR was awaiting approval in September 2025. Price on today’s fundamentals.
Groundwater data is old
The plan’s over-exploited classification dates from about 2012, and the 2024 district figure was not found (CGWB, 2024). Check borewell depth, yield and water quality.
No registered-deed series
The bands on this page are indicative estimates*, not deal prices. Collect registered comparables in the same revenue estate before negotiating.
Who to contact
Local revenue, planning & forest offices
Mutation and revenue-record matters go through the Tehsildar of the relevant tehsil (Indore, Mhow, Sanwer, Depalpur or Hatod, per the MSME-DI profile), under the District Collector, Indore. Sale-deed registration is handled by the local Sub-Registrar, and the Registration Department runs Sampada 2.0. Questions on town planning schemes and the Ahilyapath scheme go to the Indore Development Authority; forest status goes to the Forest Department’s divisional office. Land records are on MP Bhulekh. We could not open the MP Bhulekh, Registration Department, Indore Development Authority or district portal pages, so check them directly.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
Everything buyers, NRIs and investors ask before their first reviewed farmland purchase in Indore.
Visit full wiki01 of 04
What does farm land cost in Indore?
Our estimate is about ₹15 lakh to ₹3 crore per acre*, depending on the belt: roughly ₹80 lakh to ₹3 crore on the Indore–Ujjain road side, ₹25–80 lakh in Depalpur and the outer farm belts, and ₹15–50 lakh at the Mhow hill edge. These are wide, rounded, indicative estimates, not a valuation or an offer. Prices vary by plot, road access and title, so check the guideline rate with the Sub-Registrar.
02 of 04
Can anyone buy farm land in Indore?
None of the court orders or Act texts we opened bars a buyer for not being a farmer. The limits found were the tribal-land permission under section 165(6) of the Land Revenue Code and the holding ceiling, and NRIs and OCIs may not buy agricultural land under the RBI Master Direction. Confirm with the Collector’s office and the Sub-Registrar.
03 of 04
What is the Ahilyapath scheme?
It is the Indore Development Authority’s town planning scheme tied to the Simhastha 2028 works, with a reported target of taking 60% of land through town planning schemes. Farmers in several villages objected in August 2026 (Free Press Journal). Ask the authority for the scheme status of any survey number.
04 of 04
Which projects affect Indore land?
A six-lane Indore–Ujjain road is under construction (outlets differ on length, cost and date), a 48 km Hatod–Simhastha bypass was proposed in January 2025, the Indore–Pithampur Economic Corridor was at the land consent stage in December 2025, and the Indore Metro missed its sixth deadline in June 2026.

Data-currency note: area, tehsils and population are from the MSME-DI profile (2011 data, with internal inconsistencies); crop and groundwater class data come from an ICAR-CRIDA plan dated 2012. Infrastructure statuses were read in October 2026 and change quickly; guideline-rate items are reports, not notified schedules; estimated land prices are indicative and are not taken from any registered deed. Pages marked “not opened” are named only as places to check. This is a general guide, not legal advice. Report inaccuracies to wiki@farmlandindia.com.
