What is the Disturbed Areas Act in Gujarat?

The Disturbed Areas Act, formally known as the Gujarat Prohibition of Transfer of Immovable Property and Provision for Protection of Tenants from Eviction from Premises in Disturbed Areas Act, 1991 (amended in 2020), is a state law aimed at preventing distress sales, forced evictions, and communal polarization in riot-prone areas. It regulates property transfers (sale, gift, lease, exchange) and tenant evictions in notified "disturbed areas" to maintain demographic balance and protect vulnerable owners/tenants.

What are "Disturbed Areas" under the Act?

These are specific localities in cities/towns declared by the State Government via official notification based on:
1. History of communal riots or violence.
2. Likelihood of "improper clustering" or "polarization" of persons from a particular community that could disturb demographic equilibrium. Currently applicable in parts of Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Surat, Himmatnagar, Godhra, Kapadvanj, Bharuch, Anand, Amreli, Bhavnagar, Panchmahals, and others. Notifications are extended periodically (e.g., Anand in 2025 for 5 years). Check the latest via the District Collector's office or Gujarat Government Gazette.

Why is prior permission required for property transactions?

To ensure transactions are voluntary, at fair market value, and do not lead to forced displacement or communal imbalance. Without permission under Section 5, any transfer is null and void. The Collector verifies via inquiry to prevent coercion, undue influence, or anti-social elements luring sellers with high prices/threats.

What types of transactions need permission?

1. Sale, gift, exchange, or transfer of immovable property (land, flat, house). 2. Lease or tenancy agreements (new or renewal). 3. Eviction of tenants from premises. 4. Redevelopment: Allowed for owner's personal use without permission, but selling/transferring redeveloped portions requires approval. Exemptions: State rehabilitation schemes, intra-family transfers (if no communal change), or co-operative society holdings (with specific affidavits).

How do I apply for Disturbed Area Permission?

Submit an application to the District Collector (or delegated Deputy Collector):
1. Form: Use the prescribed format (available on e-Nibandhan portal or Collector's office).
2. Documents:
a. Property details (title deed, survey no., location map).
b. ID proofs (Aadhaar/PAN) of buyer/seller.
c. Affidavit from seller confirming voluntary sale at fair value (no coercion).
d. Valuation report (from registered valuer).
e. No-objection from neighbors (if required).

3. Mode: Online via e-Nibandhan Gujarat (enibandhan.gujarat.gov.in) or offline at Taluka Mamlatdar/Collector's office.
4. Fee: Nominal. Our service handles drafting, filing, and follow-up.

What is the process and timeline for approval?

Step 1: Collector issues public notice inviting objections (7–15 days).
Step 2: Inquiry/hearing with parties (site visit if needed to assess communal impact).
Step 3: Decision within 30–60 days (aimed under the Act; delays common).
Approval Criteria: Fair price, free consent, no demographic disturbance.
Rejection Grounds: Distress sale suspicion, undervaluation, or polarization risk. Track status online; appeals go to State Government (Section 6) within 30 days.

Does the Act apply to rentals or only sales?

It covers both:
a. New Leases: Require permission to prevent unauthorized tenancies.
b. Evictions: Landlords need approval to evict tenants, protecting against arbitrary displacement. For ongoing tenancies, renewal may need fresh nod if area remains disturbed.
