Dear Sir,
District Jhabua of MP is a notified area, it is a restriction for a non ST person to purchase land from the ST(Sec 165, 170 MP-LRC). Whether a company having all its directors belonging to ST can be treated as a company having the entity of a ST and can it be allowed to purchasee the land. Is there any provision by which a company can purchase the land from the ST (except land acquisition done by the state & granted to the company). pls provide relevant sugestions/acts
thnks & rgds

No. Such company cannot be treated as ST as per sections 165 & 170 MP-LRC. So you cannot purchase the desired land.
