Conditional agreement for purchase of property

Can u suggest me:

Indian citizen can do purchase/sell agreement of land or property in conditional manner....

e.g. Mr. X wants to purchase land of Mr. Y on the condition that he will give converted land instead of agriculture land to Mr. X. i.e. X will purchase converted land but right now the land is agriculture....

So, if the conditional agreement is done, it can get registered in the registration department...?

Please suggest me...

Dear Querist,

This is known as a contingent contract - the enforceability of which would depend on the fullfiment of collateral event i.e use change from agricultural to converted land. You can enter with him an agreement to sell whereby he agrees to get it converted. In the event of his not converting the contract would become void (allowing you to recover what you paid in earnest) if he performs the contract is enforceable.
