The Andhra Pradesh Land Revenue (Enhancement) Act, 1967

Tax196719 sections

The Andhra Pradesh Land Revenue (Enhancement) Act, 1967 empowers the state government to levy and collect enhanced land revenue and additional taxes across Andhra Pradesh. Applying directly to all landholders and pattadars, the Act establishes clear procedures for reclassifying wet and dry lands, assessing unrated properties, and adjusting prior payments. This legislation matters because it creates a standardized framework for state agricultural taxation while safeguarding landowners by establishing formal dispute resolution processes and providing crucial tax remissions or exemptions during severe crop failures and financial hardships.
