Maharashtra Cancels NA Land Condition: Big Reform, But Implementation is Key
•Revenue and Forest Department cancelled Non-Agricultural (NA) permission, certificate, and assessment via a GR on Feb 10, 2026.
•Aims to reduce paperwork, dual permissions, and dual taxation for land transactions and construction processes.
•Exemption applies only to lands eligible for construction permission from planning authorities, simplifying the approval process.
•Eliminates dual tax burden; a one-time conversion premium based on Ready Reckoner rates will be paid.
•Experts warn that despite good intentions, implementation faces challenges like 'rent-seeking' and administrative hurdles, calling for comprehensive reforms.
