The strictest outsider-purchase regime in this corridor — Section 118 permission, a doubled stamp duty rate, and mandatory e-stamping since 2024.

Two districts have a discretionary approval path. The other eleven don't have one at all — the distinction most buyers get wrong.

Open to any buyer, no domicile test — but Shamlat Deh common land can look privately held while being legally non-transferable.

Open since 2014, but a live purchase freeze covers 84 villages around Jewar, Noida and Ghaziabad right now — eligibility and registration are separate questions.

No eligibility bar in Haryana — but CLU clearance is the real gatekeeper for any non-agricultural use, including a farmhouse.

Rajasthan is the most open state in this corridor for buyers — but ceiling limits, Section 42, and Section 90A conversion still gate a real purchase.

All Pillar →Farmland India ("the Platform"), operated by Bulk Procure Private Limited, is a digital marketplace for listing agricultural land, farmhouse and plotted development projects. The Platform is not a real estate broker, agent or intermediary under RERA or any other applicable law, and does not act for either party to a transaction.
Listings are submitted by developers, owners and their authorised representatives. Before publication, the Platform carries out a documentary review of the material supplied and records what was sighted. That review is limited to the documents made available to us at that time. It is not a title investigation, not a legal opinion, and not a warranty of title, approvals, or the accuracy of any information supplied by a lister. The Trust Score is an internal assessment produced from that review and is intended as a research aid, not as a guarantee of outcome.
Every buyer must carry out independent due diligence before any transaction — including verification of land records, encumbrance searches, approvals and regulatory compliance — through their own advocate and chartered accountant. Any legal or advisory professional introduced through the Platform is engaged directly by the user, on that professional's own terms; the Platform does not employ, supervise or accept responsibility for their work.
Nothing on the Platform is investment advice. Land values can fall as well as rise. The Platform is not liable for any loss, dispute or damage arising from a transaction between parties.
