KnowTheLaw | Can NRIs Buy Agricultural Land in India?

🌾 No — NRIs are not allowed to purchase agricultural land, plantation property, or farmhouses in India, as per RBI guidelines.

However, they can inherit or receive such land as a gift from a resident Indian.

📌 Important: Violating this law can lead to legal complications and forced sale. Always seek legal clarity before making any property investment in India.

🧠 Legal Tip: Whether you’re an NRI or advising one, property laws vary by state and category — consult before you commit.
