Suhana Khan Under Legal Scanner for Buying Alibaug Land

Read Time:-2 Min

Suhana Khan, daughter of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, is reportedly under legal investigation following her purchase of agricultural land in Thal village, Alibaug, Maharashtra. The property was registered under Deja Vu Farm Private Limited, a business connected to Suhana's family, and was purchased in May 2023 for ₹12.91 crore from the Khote family of Mumbai's Cuffe Parade.  During the transaction, she paid ₹77.46 lakh in stamp duty. 

The dispute arises due to the status of the land: it was initially granted by the Maharashtra government in 1968 to be used for agriculture and had a 'no-sale' term attached to it. State policy dictates that farmers cannot buy agricultural land until they get permission from the District Collector. The authorities have questioned the validity of the transaction, stating that Suhana had been registered as a 'farmer' in the records.

Legal professionals have opined that the sale may be against land transfer rules, and there are demands for more legal action. The news follows Suhana as she gets set to make her Bollywood acting debut in King, sharing the screen with her dad, and adds to her expanding body of brand endorsement deals with firms such as Maybelline and Lux.

The probe is underway, and more information is awaited.
