What land is being acquired and where
The land is being acquired for SIPCOT Hosur Industrial Park Phases III to V, an industrial park project.
All of the land lies in Krishnagiri district. One village is in Denkanikotta taluk and four villages are in Shoolagiri taluk.
In total, the notices list 1,153 survey numbers across 5 villages. No other villages appear in the notices we have recorded for this project.
The acquisition is under the Tamil Nadu Acquisition of Land for Industrial Purposes Act, 1997. This is a State law, so the notices are published in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette.
The notices and their stage
There are 19 notices in all. Eighteen are acquisition notifications, published between 19 November 2021 and 7 May 2025. The nineteenth is an errata dated 7 August 2026, which corrects an earlier notice.
Three of the notifications, dated 29 November 2021, 28 October 2022 and 2 June 2023, were corrected later. If your survey number appears in any of these, read the correction along with the original notice.
None of the 19 notices has been withdrawn, either fully or for any village.
Under this Act, the main step is a notice under section 3(1). Before issuing it, the Government must give the owner and other interested persons an opportunity to show cause against the acquisition. Once the section 3(1) notice is published in the Gazette, the land described in it vests in the Government, free from encumbrances.
The notices themselves do not tell us whether compensation has been paid or whether possession has been taken for any particular survey number. That must be confirmed at the office of the Special Tahsildar (Land Acquisition) or the District Collector, Krishnagiri.
Villages covered by the notices
Nagamangalam, in Denkanikotta taluk, has the most survey numbers listed: 378.
In Shoolagiri taluk, the notices list 264 survey numbers in Dhoripalli, 214 in Addagurukki, 152 in Nallakanakothapalli and 145 in Marudhandapalli.
No survey number in any of these five villages has been withdrawn from acquisition.
What to do if your land is listed
First, check the exact survey number and subdivision against the Gazette notice and any errata. A survey number may be acquired only in part, so the subdivision and extent matter.
If you own land that is listed, collect your patta, chitta, adangal, FMB sketch and title deeds, and keep them ready for the land acquisition office. Compensation is determined by the authority under the Act, and you will need these papers to establish your claim and share.
If you are buying land in these villages, do not rely on the patta alone. Ask for the survey number to be checked against all 19 notices, take an Encumbrance Certificate, and get a written statement from the seller about any acquisition notice. Land that has vested in the Government cannot pass to you by a private sale.
For compensation amounts, award details and possession status, contact the Special Tahsildar (Land Acquisition) handling SIPCOT Hosur, or the District Collector, Krishnagiri. A property lawyer can advise on any dispute about extent or ownership.
