Do you know if panchayat approved lands can be bought and if its safe to construct a house without any future risks? Also how difficult is to get a DTCP approval? Does the layout guy needs to get it or individual plot owners can get?
Also how expensive it is
2. Also there seems to be no clarity in the sellers power of attorney. So do you think if the land has other documents (parent,EC,patta) in place safe to buy this plot ?
I know lot of questions but kind of confused since we dont want to take any 'Major' risks when buying a land through applying a loan here in the US
Thanks

Hi,
Generally layouts of less than 75 cents (Total area of the development), CMDA, DTCP or corporation approval can be avoided. But please note that this approval is only for the layput sub division. When you build a building, there are norms for each category and you may have to go to CMDA /DTCP.
Please check the sale deed, parent documents, patta, chitta, adangal, A register and 30 years EC with the help of your lawyer before committing. Power of Attorney, if not registered has to be checked for its authenticity.
If unclear, ask your lawyer to give ads in newspapers and go through the respective legal process.
Anyhow, please be very careful as there are lots of unscrupulous guys trying to sell disputed lands in the market.
