Quick Summary

This discussion addresses a farmer's eligibility to purchase agricultural land in Gujarat after inheritance issues and a gift deed transfer to a cousin. While current laws may prevent direct purchase if not formally recognised as a farmer, options include purchasing through a relative who owns land, or potentially receiving a gift of land. Consulting a local Gujarat lawyer is strongly advised to navigate specific state laws and explore possible exemptions.

You are not having agricultural land in your name at present.

Can buy in the name of your relative who is having agricultural land in his name. Later he can transfer it to your name.

Discuss in detail with local lawyer.

As per me, at present, you are not a farmer. So you cannot purchase agricultural land. You can ask your cousin-brother to gift you some land. If your brother gift you agricultural land then you can purchase the agricultural land.
