With its Land Bank for state wide availability of land, IDCO is specialised in acquiring project land within 12-15 months.

On receipt of the application of the entrepreneur (Format at Annex-III) alongwith plan/schedule of selected land and recommendation of Promotional Agency, IIDCO initiates the process of land alienation (for Govt. land) & acquisition (for private land). For Government lands, the alienation proposal is filled with the concerned Tahasildar whereas for private lands, the acquisition proposal is submitted to the Collector of concerned district.
 State Government have authorised the Collectors to alienate any quantum of Government land to IDCO without making any reference to higher Revenue Authorities.

Thus, the applications of IDCO for transfer of land are dealt by the Revenue authorities on first track
The entrepreneur is required to make deposit of token amount ( roughly 10% of estimated cost) with IDCO at the time of filling alienation/acquisition proposals. Balance amount is paid as soon as the alienation or acquisition is finalised by the district administration.
The cost of Government land is charged at the rates notified in Industrial Policy. The acquisition cost of private land is worked out in accordance with the provisions of Land Acquisition Act.
For availing the services of IDCO for obtaining land, the entrepreneur is required to pay service charges @ 10% of land cost
On deposit of land cost and service charges, the alienated/acquired land is first transferred in favour of IDCO and subsequently in favour of the entrepreneur through proper lease agreement.
