Dear client,
Check the eligibility rules of the scheme.
Some government land allotment schemes consider gross annual income.
Others consider taxable income or family income.
Some specifically exclude allowances such as HRA, transport allowance, or certain military allowances from income calculations.
The Deputy Commissioner's decision must be based on the exact provisions of the relevant Government Order or Land Allotment Rules.
Your present financial status may be relevant.
Since you have now retired and your annual income has reportedly fallen below ₹6 lakh, you may be eligible if the scheme permits consideration of the applicant's current income rather than income at the time of the earlier applications.
You can submit a fresh representation.
Attach:
Retirement/discharge certificate.
Latest Pension Payment Order (PPO), if issued.
Latest Income Tax Return.
Income certificate issued by the competent authority.
Copies of your 2005 and 2013 applications.
Copy of the DC's endorsement rejecting your claim.
Request reconsideration on the ground that your present annual income is below the prescribed limit.
If the rejection was legally incorrect, you may challenge it.
If the DC counted income contrary to the applicable rules (for example, by including components that should have been excluded), you can:
file an appeal or revision if provided under the applicable rules; or
approach the jurisdictional High Court by filing a writ petition seeking quashing of the endorsement and reconsideration.
It is advisable to contact the authorities again with relevant documentation.
