Yes, as per the new law, vacant B Khata site in Karnataka (especially in Bengaluru and other urban areas) are also eligible for A-Khata conversion. But it is not automatic and depends on strict conditions.
A vacant plot needs a road in front that is recognised as a public road. If the plot connects via a private road, that road may first need to be legally declared public, e.g., under the Greater Bengaluru Governance Act rules, before conversion is allowed.
If the land was agricultural originally, it must be converted to non-agricultural use under the relevant land revenue rules.
What is the Latest Khata Conversion Eligibility?
Apart from what I mentioned above, here are a few more criteria:
It must also obtain planning authority approvals, such as under the Karnataka Town and Country Planning (KTCP) Act. This act involves layout approval or single-plot clearing from the competent authority. Without this, the plot cannot be legally upgraded to A-Khata.
Recent state moves (e.g., extended B-to-A conversion schemes) targeting formalisation mean vacant plots on public roads, and with proper approvals, are eligible to apply for A-Khata. It typically involves a conversion fee (e.g., 5% of the guideline value) and satisfying all statutory requirements.
Situations Where Khata Conversion is Limited or Denied
Unauthorised Layout without Approval: Vacant plots in unapproved or private layouts without proper planning sanctions usually cannot be converted until e-Khata approvals are secured.
No Road Connectivity: If there’s no recognised public road access, conversion is blocked until the road situation is resolved.
Vacant B-Khata plots can be converted to A-Khata but only if you actively meet planning, road access, and statutory conversion criteria. Hope you get an idea.
