The Urban Land Ceiling and Regulation act was passed in 1976, during the emergency period, when honorable Indira Gandhi was the PM of India. The major objective o this act was to ensure equitable distribution of land. It was a move to redistribute lands to the small farmers. It classified three types of land, best land, second class and the others. Each of this type has different limits.

This act is pivotal in regulating and bringing under the purview of state the issues of registration of tenants, rent regulation, ownership rights etc. Before this legislation was passed, the tenant farmers were paying 35-75% of their gross produce, but with this enactment, it reduced to 25-40%.
