I have a house which is said that the land is in FTL. How do I check if the land is under FTL?

The FTL land meaning refers to a water body's maximum capacity, such as a lake or pond. When a piece of land is listed as FTL, it signifies that it is within the water body's boundaries and is subject to particular rules.

What is the FTL meaning in real estate?

The FTL land full form is Full Tank Level refers to a waterbody, such as a lake, pond, Nala, Kunta, etc., where any type of development is forbidden. A buffer zone has been established surrounding the FTL zone to preserve the waterbodies from any further encroachments. If construction is done within a buffer zone, it cannot be regarded as legitimate and cannot be contested in court. Any building built in an FTL zone cannot be registered or transferred.

After understanding what is FTL land, let us focus on how to verify if a land is under FTL in India. You can verify by following any of the following steps;

• Visit the State Revenue Department's website for more information.

• Visit the local Revenue Office

• Check the survey map.

• Hire a licenced surveyor

I hope this helps you to understand the FTL land meaning.

Hi there, 

FTL meaning in land is Full Tank Land and I believe the Government of Telangana has laid the statement around FTL land that no registrations will be considered legal for such lands. I believe you should confirm if the land is in FTL for sure or not. If you want to know how to check FTL Land in Telangana then you will have to file a RTI application. In your application you can share the details of the land and ask the sub registrar and revenue department about the land status. 

Since FTL land is unfit for any type of construction, I am not sure if you will be able to get a legal nod from the authorities. Although, I believe the Telangana government is issuing TDR certificates to the FTL land owners who are losing their lands due to nala widening or encroachment.
