Unless land law there in the state of Maharashtra specifically prohibits for ,there should be no issue at all.Either consult a local revenue lawyer or wait for replies from M/S VR SHROFF & AJAY SETHI as both of them are from Maharashtra.

purpose of the Bombay Tenancy Act, 1948 is to ensure holding of agricultural land by tenants, labourers and agricultural land holders. Agriculturist as defined in sec.2 (2) of the Act means a person who cultivates land personally; and under section 2 (6) to cultivate personally means to cultivate land on one's own account by one's own labour, or by the labour of any member of one's family, or under the personal supervision of oneself or any member of one's family by hired labour or by servants on wages payable in cash or kind but not in crop share. According to section 2 (5), to cultivate with its grammatical variations and cognate expressions means to till or husband the land for the purpose of raising or improving agricultural produce, whether by manual labour or by means of cattle or machinery, or to carry on any agricultural operation thereon.
Since
the word person is defined in section 2 (11) of the Act, its definition as given in the Bombay General Clauses Act, 1904 could not be applied and a company constituted as a juristic person under the Companies Act cannot be considered to be an agriculturist. Having regard to this legal provision, there is no provision under section 63 of the Act for acquisition of agricultural land by companies as non-agriculturist. The District Collectors, Prant Officers, Taluka Mamlatdars and Agricultural Tribunals have to proceed accordingly, keeping in view the aforesaid provisions.

I AM NOT A BUSINESS MAN, JUST THINKING TO DO SOMETHING

Mr. Chandy Thomas,
The experts here are meant to solve the problem, if you actually face any, not to tutor you on the processes for opening & running a business.
Even if you are not a businessman, but want to do something, still you would not be able to do something at your own without hiring services of some advocate, CA or a Company Secretary, as the process is quite long for you to bear with along with your service as an accountant.
Still further, you should not expect the experts to hold a law class for you to teach company laws step by step from time to time to guide you how and why you should proceed in which direction or to go to which office for accomplishment of which step of the process. You should come here only when you get some problem in the process of registering your company or after commencement of your business.
Even otherwise also, you are an accountant and cannot do any business or own a company unless you retire or resign from service.
