Sale of d patta land

D-patta land cannot be sold unless you get permission to sell the land from the District Collector your district.

How can I get the permission...how can I approach him?

You cannot directly sell your deceased father's D patta land, as this type of land is typically allocated by the government with certain restrictions.

 However, the legal heirs can take steps to get the land transferred to their name and potentially apply for permission to sell it later.

The process varies depending on the state and the specific conditions of the original grant. 

D patta land, also known as Darakastu land in some areas, is government land assigned to landless individuals, often those from marginalized communities (SC/ST/OBC), as a welfare measure.

The sale and transfer of this land are heavily restricted to prevent it from being misused or falling back into the hands of ineligible buyers. 

In most cases, specific government permission is required to sell, transfer, or mortgage D patta land. 

To begin the process of eventually selling the land, the legal heirs must first get the patta transferred into their names. This process confirms their legal right to the property and is a necessary first step. 

Submit an application for a patta transfer to the Taluk office. You must include your father's death certificate, the legal heir certificate, and the original patta. If there are multiple legal heirs (your mother, siblings, etc.), all of their names will be included in the new patta.

Once the patta is in the names of the legal heirs, the process to sell the land is still subject to the original assignment conditions.

Even after the period ends, it is advisable to get permission from the local revenue department to sell the land

Very well explained and advised by learned senior experts.

D-patta land is a local connotation, which is not known and applicable through out the country.

Land and land revenue is a State subject. Each State has its own norms.
