The purchase of land granted to Reserved category person should be bought only after proper permission obtained from district collector.

Since the land belongs to S.C/S.T caste purchased by General category  without permission of District Collector is not legal and valid sale and so further sale of land to builder is also illegal and invalid in eye of law.

Buying land previously granted to SC/ST groups can be a complex and potentially risky transaction.

 The land comes with certain conditions and restrictions, and failure to comply with these conditions can lead to legal consequences.

 For instance, the Karnataka Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prohibition of Transfer of Certain Lands) Act, 1978, prohibits the transfer of granted lands for a defined period without prior approval.

Additionally, the Supreme Court has clarified that applications under Section 5(1) of the Act will not be entertained if filed after an inordinate delay.

Therefore, it is crucial to conduct thorough due diligence and verify that all conditions have been complied with before making a purchase.

 It is also important to consider the potential risks and consequences of buying land with such restrictions.
