LPS Forms 9.18-A and 9.18-B in Simple English

Phase 1 farmers chose their plots on two forms, 9.18-A and 9.18-B. This page walks through each part, so that the areas add up and no joint owner is left out.

Prepare your plot-choice application

This checklist explains the ebook’s forms. It does not submit an application. Your selections last only while this page stays open.

Choose the correct form

Form 9.18-A records individual residential and commercial choices. It appears on PDF pages 26–29.

Form 9.18-B records joint choices and each participating owner. It appears on PDF pages 30–34.

For part-individual and part-joint choices, the ebook says to use both forms. The totals and cross-references must agree.

These forms belong to the Phase 1 booklet. Ask the competent authority which form or portal now applies to your scheme.

Form A: identify the accepted land

The form separates dry land from jareebu/semi-urban land. Copy the classification from the accepted record.

The extent columns use acres and cents. The returnable-plot columns use square yards. Do not copy one unit into the other.

  1. Enter the competent authority, unit and village.
  2. Enter the mandal and revenue village.
  3. Enter the landowner details requested by the official form.
  4. List each farmer LPS reference and survey number.
  5. Enter the accepted agricultural extent.
  6. Enter the residential and commercial entitlement separately.

Form A: record four choice tables

Each choice row asks for the plot code, one plot’s area, the number of plots and the total area. Multiply area by count.

Add each table separately. Subtract that total from the matching entitlement. Mark the chosen route for the remainder.

For the joint route, the form points to member details in Form B. The other routes concern an undivided-share auction arrangement or TDR.

Form B: include every participant

The joint form first lists the participating landowners and their land records. It separates dry and jareebu/semi-urban entries.

It then uses four plot-choice tables, as Form A does. The requested area belongs to the joint application.

For a remaining balance, Form B shows an undivided-share auction route or TDR. The booklet asks for the agreement between the members where applicable.

Names, entitlement contributions and agreed shares must be consistent across the application and supporting agreement.

Read the undertaking before signing

The form includes applicant signatures, witnesses, place and date. Understand these terms before signing. This English explanation does not replace the signed wording.

  • The applicants declare that their information and choices are not misleading.
  • The applicants take responsibility for their joint sharing arrangement.
  • The form states that the choices are binding and will not be withdrawn.
  • The applicants agree to receive the returnable plots through registration.
  • The undertaking addresses transfer of loans or charges from original land to returnable plots.

Keep your own record

The checklist on this page does not collect Aadhaar numbers, survey records or signatures. Submit sensitive details only through the official process.

  1. Use the current form supplied or accepted by the authority.
  2. Check every total against the entitlement record.
  3. Resolve name, survey or area differences before submission.
  4. Keep a complete signed copy with its attachments.
  5. Get a dated receipt or online acknowledgement.
  6. Track the allotment and check the issued plot details.
