What goes wrong — Chhattisgarh and Raipur specifics
Scheduled area restrictions on land transfer
Substantial parts of Chhattisgarh fall within Fifth Schedule areas where transfer of land from a tribal to a non-tribal is restricted or prohibited. A transaction breaching this can be void and is liable to be restored to the original holder. This is the most consequential check in the state.
Diversion required before non-agricultural use
Land recorded as agricultural requires a diversion order before residential or commercial use. Plots on the Raipur periphery are frequently sold undiverted.
Naya Raipur and acquisition history
Land in and around the new capital area has been through acquisition and allotment processes whose records need checking alongside the deed chain.
A bank's opinion protects the bank, not you
Lenders commission opinions to assess their own security. A sanctioned loan is not evidence of clean title.

Title Opinion FAQs — Raipur
Can I buy land from a tribal owner in Chhattisgarh?
Generally not, in Fifth Schedule areas. Transfer of land from a tribal to a non-tribal holder is restricted or prohibited, and a transaction breaching the restriction can be declared void with the land restored to the original holder. This is the most important check on any Chhattisgarh land purchase and it is not disclosed by an encumbrance search.
What is diversion and does my Raipur plot need it?
Diversion converts land recorded as agricultural in the Khasra to non-agricultural use. Without it, residential or commercial use is unlawful however clean the deed is. Peripheral Raipur plots are frequently sold undiverted and the problem surfaces at building permission.
Which Sub-Registrar Office covers Shankar Nagar or Telibandha?
Central Raipur is served by the numbered Raipur offices, with Abhanpur, Arang, Tilda and Dharsiwa covering the district including the Naya Raipur belt.
Is a gift to a blood relative exempt in Chhattisgarh?
Public sources place Chhattisgarh among the states exempting or heavily concessioning family gifts, but we confirm against the current notification before advising, since the position is notification-based rather than statutory.
