Land Laws

Land Laws is a practical, authoritative guide to the statutes, procedural rules and case-law that govern land and property in India. Covering ownership and title, modes of transfer, tenancy and landlord-tenant relations, registration and stamp law, mutation and land records, easements and covenants, adverse possession, and dispute-resolution pathways, the book synthesizes statutory text with judicial interpretation and administrative practice. Each chapter explains statutory provisions clearly, annotates important cases and includes procedural checklists, sample forms and drafting templates for conveyances, sale deeds, lease agreements and mutation applications. Special chapters focus on agricultural land regulation, conversion of land use, urban planning controls, redevelopment laws and interplays between revenue and civil jurisdictions. Designed for both study and practice, the book contains exam-oriented summaries, flowcharts of procedural steps, and an index keyed to commonly searched legal problems. Whether used by law students preparing for exams, practicing lawyers handling property matters, government officers, developers, or landowners seeking clarity, Land Laws provides the legal tools needed to resolve title questions, complete secure transfers, and manage land disputes efficiently.
