Whether you can buy agricultural land in India in your parents name would depend on the State in India where your parents live and where they wish to buy agricultural land. Many States in India do not allow non-farmers to purchase agricultural land even if they are Indian citizens. Some States do not allow agricultural land to be sold to people who do not reside in the State where the agricultural land is located.
