Land Conversion Status Check Online: State Portals (2026)
How to track a CLU or NA conversion application on the state portals we opened, and what we could not confirm.
Conversion files stall quietly. This guide lists the state portals we opened, what their menus showed, how to read a status when you find one, and what a buyer should ask for before relying on a conversion claim.
Why tracking a conversion application matters
A change of land use (CLU) or non-agricultural (NA) conversion is the permission that lets agricultural land be used for a house, farmhouse, warehouse or other purpose. Applications are slow and are often held up by missing documents, unpaid charges or queries that the applicant never sees. Tracking the file online is the cheapest way to catch a problem early. It also helps a buyer check a seller's claim that "conversion is under process" or "conversion is done".
This page is a portal guide. It lists only the state portals we actually opened and what their menus showed on the day we looked. It does not describe steps we did not see, and where a status tracker is not confirmed we say so. For the conversion process and fees themselves, read change of land use in India, CLU in Haryana: process and fees, land use conversion in Uttar Pradesh and land conversion in Rajasthan under section 90A.
What you need before you check
- Application or file number issued when you applied. Most online systems track by this number. We could not confirm the exact name of the number on every portal.
- Applicant details such as mobile number or registration used at login. We could not confirm login requirements on every portal.
- Khasra or survey number, village and tehsil in case the portal searches by land details.
- Payment receipts for scrutiny fee, conversion charges or other dues, kept as proof.
If you are a buyer and not the applicant, you may not be able to log in at all. In that case ask the seller to show you the status screen and the issued order, and take a copy of the final permission.
State portals we opened
| State | Portal opened | What the menu showed | Status tracking confirmed? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Uttar Pradesh | upbhulekh.gov.in, titled Bhulekh | Menu items: Section 80, Declaration for non-agricultural use, Application status, Services | An Application status item is listed. We could not see its contents or whether it covers section 80 declarations |
| Haryana | tcpharyana.gov.in, Town and Country Planning Department | Menu items for CLU, Application status, e-services and Login; no links or details were visible to us | Listed in the menu; we could not see the screen or its fields |
| Rajasthan | udh.rajasthan.gov.in, Urban Development and Housing Department | Applicant Corner: Online Applications, Timeline for Processing of Application, Application Form, Procedure and Check list, Verification of Certificate, Citizen Charter. E-services: UDH Online Services, Grievance Redressal and CM Helpline. The main portal was shown as urban.rajasthan.gov.in | No status tracker was named on the page. The Online Applications and Timeline pages may offer one, but we could not confirm it |
| Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand | None opened | Not reviewed | Not confirmed |
We also tried the Rajasthan Apna Khata portal and the Haryana TCP e-services site, but could not open them in this review, so we do not describe them. The India government services page for Rajasthan section 90A conversion did not name an application portal, a fee or a timeline.
What to look for state by state
Uttar Pradesh
The Bhulekh home page lists Section 80, a declaration for non-agricultural use and application status together. The menu pairs Section 80 with a declaration for non-agricultural use. We did not open the section text in this review, so for the legal effect read land use conversion in Uttar Pradesh. When you check, record the date of the declaration, the order or certificate number and the name of the officer who issued it.
Haryana
The Town and Country Planning home page lists a CLU menu and an application status link. A Tribune report from July 2024 said Haryana streamlined fresh CLU permission for projects that already had approval, with scrutiny fee, conversion charges and a fresh CLU agreement collected at the in-principle approval stage and the CLU permission issued after compliance. It did not name the portal. The report also separates a change in project, which attracts only the scrutiny fee, from a change in category, which is a CLU matter with full charges. We could not confirm how this applies to a private agricultural plot.
Rajasthan
The Urban Development and Housing site offers a timeline page and a checklist page for conversion and change in land use. Use the timeline page to check how long an application may take before you assume a file is stuck. We did not read the timelines, so check them on the page. Our guide to section 90A conversion explains the legal route.
How to read a status and what to do next
| If the status looks like | It usually means | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Submitted or received | The file has been lodged but not scrutinised | Note the date and check against the department's published timeline |
| Under scrutiny or pending | An officer is examining documents | Ask for any query raised and reply in writing |
| Query or objection raised | The department wants a document or correction | Reply within the time stated. See why CLU applications get rejected |
| Approved or order issued | Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions | Download the order and verify the number, date, khasra and area |
| Rejected | The permission has been refused | Read the reasons and consider appeal or fresh application |
These readings are general. We could not confirm the exact status labels used on any of the portals above, so match them to the portal's own help text.
A buyer's checklist for a converted plot
- Ask for the final order or certificate, not just a screenshot of the status.
- Match the khasra or survey number, village, area and name of the owner on the order with the land record. See khasra and khatauni explained.
- Check that the permitted use matches your intended use. A permission for a residential use may not allow a farmhouse with farm use, or the reverse.
- Check whether the conversion charges and fees were paid in full and whether conditions, such as setbacks or a time limit to use the land, apply.
- Check whether the land record was updated after conversion. A converted plot whose record still shows agricultural use can cause trouble at registration or sale. We could not confirm the update process in each state.
- Check the land use zone in the master plan. See land use zones explained.
- Do the usual title checks in land due diligence checklist.
A status page is not a permission
A screen showing approved is helpful but is not the legal permission. Ask for the signed or digitally signed order and check its number on the issuing department's verification page if one exists. Rajasthan's site lists a Verification of Certificate page, though we did not test it.
What is unconfirmed
We could not confirm: what the Application status pages on the Uttar Pradesh and Haryana portals show or how to search them; whether Rajasthan offers a conversion status tracker and where; the status labels, login requirements, fees and timelines on any portal; and anything for Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. The Apna Khata and Haryana e-services portals could not be opened. This page is DRAFT until each tracker has been tested with a live application number.
