Hi,

Few of my friends have invested with Geown developer on the electronics city-sarjapur corridor. They have few more projects between varthur-sarjapur.

This are farm land converted to plantation land and selling it as farm houses with panchayat plan approval.
- No loan available
- No DC conversion
- Construction possible on 25% land only. Mainly people use it as farm or weekend house.

Can members comment, what is this plantation conversion and what are drawback of buying such land. I see some comment about cheating on web for this developers, but when I asked my friend, they said, it is just deal gone bad, so don't pay attention.

Please help.

It should be around 650-700psft. Note that it is 2km inside the main road.

Any help regarding plantation conversion will be good.

Well, I got this clarified.

Yes, it is possible, but need to show plantation in the area. Basically they use a loophole in Karnataka Land Act.
Actually, most of the farm houses you see on outskirts follow this model as per my findings.
