Maharashtra plans India's first law for blockchain-based property tokens to unlock land value.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis announced the Maharashtra Digitisation and Exchange of Land Token Asset (Delta) Act at the Global Fintech Fest 2026 in Mumbai. He described it as India's first legal framework for creating blockchain-based digital tokens representing ownership or rights in land and other immovable assets.
Fadnavis said the assets covered could be worth around ₹50 lakh crore. The framework aims to provide legal certainty, consumer protection, and regulatory oversight. It is being developed with input from the Securities and Exchange Board of India, the Bombay Stock Exchange, the National Stock Exchange, and experts from industry, technology, law, and academia.
Land tokenisation converts ownership or economic rights in a property into digital tokens recorded on a blockchain. For example, a property worth ₹1 crore could be represented by 1,000 tokens, each representing a fraction of the asset's value or rights.
This model could let investors gain exposure to property without buying an entire asset. Fadnavis said land in India has traditionally represented substantial but illiquid wealth, where families or entrepreneurs hold valuable assets but struggle to access capital against them efficiently.
He argued tokenisation could address this by improving transparency and liquidity, allowing the economic potential of land to be unlocked more quickly. Operationalising the law will require significant collaboration between the federal and state governments.
