What is Prohibited Land?
Prohibited Land refers to properties that are legally restricted from being sold, transferred, or registered under government regulations. These lands are usually listed under restricted categories maintained by the Sub Registrar Office (SRO).
In Andhra Pradesh, prohibited properties are recorded under restricted land lists maintained by the registration department. If a property falls under this list, the Sub Registrar cannot register sale deeds, mortgages, or transfers for that land.
