Maharashtra Fragmentation Act – Minimum Plot Size (Guntha-Based Rules)

Q1. What was the Fragmentation Act in Maharashtra?

It prevented division of agricultural land into plots smaller than a defined standard area to avoid uneconomical fragments.

Q2. What is the minimum plot size allowed?

Typically around 0.4 acre (16 guntas), depending on region. Smaller plots were considered “fragments” and couldn’t be independently sold.

Q3. Has the Fragmentation Act been removed?

Yes. In many urban and peri-urban zones, the Act has been repealed or relaxed, allowing regularisation of old small plots.

Q4. Can small agricultural plots now be registered freely?

In regulated zones and NA areas, yes. In purely agricultural rural zones, additional approvals may still be required.
