Since real estate is a big problem throughout Bangalore with rampant encroachment and unauthorized constructions especially on agricultural land the Government of Karnataka has made it mandatory for these owners to get sanction for the same from the Deputy Commissioner. Under Section 95 of the Karnataka Land Revenue Act, it has become important for the occupant or owner of the land to make an application to the DC. This is known as DC Conversion and may be withdrawn or cancelled if the stated property according to the DC office is found as an agricultural land and should be treated as such.

Advantages of owning DC converted sites-

There are several advantages if you apply for your land to be DC Converted or owning a Site which is DC Converted. Due to the widespread problem arising out of the unauthorised constructions in several places the government has made concessions in certain landed properties and allowed them to be converted to non-agriculture land with some conditions attached. As per the present rule certain type of land may be DC Converted if the percentage deviation in illegal structures is within the limits fixed by the authorities.

It also implies that not all landed properties are eligible for DC Conversion. Again, some properties are allowed to be DC Converted through the payment of the penalty is prescribed for structures built on a plot on or after 02-10-1980. For the purpose of tax payment, the government has introduced Khata which is in fact not a Title Deed but simply for receiving taxes.

However, When you pay taxes on your property this doesn’t mean that you have the right to use the property as you like. Having your property in Khata simply means that you have paid taxes on it. Hence, in Bangalore, you often find ‘A Khata’ and ‘B Khata’ land. In order to transfer your land from B Khata to A Khata you need to file certain documents and the chief among them is the DC Converted order. If not then your land will always remain an agriculture plot.

Some problems you face with land that are not DC Converted is that you will never get loans on it, any structure built on it can be demolished by the authorities without any notice, you will not get building license and trade license.
