Without plot, any construction take place is not possible. Vastu of a Plot is the most important part in a construction. Any building or Property to be constructed on a Plot should have perfect in Vastu norms. There are many factors to be considered before constructing a building or your house on a plot of land. Some of the factors which are important from the Vastu shastra aspect of view for a plot are – From whom you buy the plot, direction of the plot, environment or surrounding of the plot, obstruction in front of the main gate of the plot etc.
There are some important points related to the Vastu of a Plot.
- Shape of the Plot
- Slope of the Plot
- Soil Quality
- Angle of the Plot
- Roads to the Plot
- Junction Plots
- Surroundings of the Plot
When you see a road on the north side from your entrance is a North Facing. It has to be perpendicular to your entrance. Though it is very good for any type of constructions, due care is required while deciding the structural design as the magnetic forces of the earth are generated from the North Pole. It creates wealthy and healthy vibrations and ensures the prosperity of the people living in these north-facing plots and grounds.
The basic idea behind the selection of the plot is the shape and angle. Following points should be kept in mind for the shape.
- The shape should be such that there must be only four corners in a Plot.
- The corners should have the angle of 90 degrees.
- The ratio of Length : Breadth in a rectangular Plot should not exceed 1:2
- The direction of East West should be 90 degrees. Slight deviation of 10-15 degrees is acceptable
- Extended Plots
- Though Plots with 90 degrees are best. But plot with extension in certain direction has proven good results.
- Plot on “T” Junction should be avoided.
- Plots at dead end should be avoided.
Extended Plots
Though Plots with 90 degrees are best. But plot with extension in certain direction has proven good results.
Roads to the plot
Direction of Road to any Plot is very important. It cannot be ignored at all. So following are the cases with its results:-
- Three side Roads of the Plot:- If there is Road on the three sides of the Plot then:-
- Road on North, West and South is Normal provided entry is not made from South side.
- Road on North, West and East is good.
- Road on North, South and East is also good if entry is from North or East.
- Road on South, East and West is Normal.
- Four sides Road of a Plot are rarely found but it is the best and has very auspicious results.
- Two side Road of a Plot:-
- Roads on North and East are best.
- Roads on North and West are Normal.
- Roads on North and South are Normal if the Entry is from North.
- Roads on East and South are Normal if the Entry is from East.
- Roads on East and West are Normal.
- Roads on South and West are not good.
- One side Road :-
- Road on North is Very Good
- Road on East is Very Good
- Road on west is Normal
- Road on South is Worst- Avoid it.
Slope to the plot
Slope of the Plot is also very important while selecting a Plot.

High in SE and Middle of S and Low in NW and Middle of N | Normal | |
High in SW and Middle of S and Low in N and Middle of NE | Very Good . | |
High in SW & Middle of W and Low in NE & Middle of E- | Very Good | |
High in NW & Middle of W and Low in E & Middle of S- | Bad | |
High in NW & Middle of N and Low in Se & Middle of S- | Very Bad | for Health. |
High in NE & Middle of N and Low in S & Middle of S- | Very Bad | |

High in SW and Low in NE, NW & SE- | Good | |
High in NE and Low in NW, SW & SE- | Very Bad | |
High in SW & NE and Low in NW- | Bad | |
High in SW,NW & W and Low in E- | Good | |
High in NE, SE & E and Low in W – | Very Bad | |
Long in E & W and High in S & N- | Very Bad |
Surrounding of the plot
Surroundings of the Plot are also important while purchasing the Plot:-
a. Plot, on which lots of Trees and Plants are there, is good. But Plot having Bamboo Trees should be acquired with great care.
b. If river or canal is on the East side of the Plot and is flowing from South to East then it is good Plot.
c. If the river or canal is on Northern side of the Plot and is flowing from West to East, then it is good.
d. River or canal on South or West of the plot is not good.
e. Hill, Hillocks, High land, Heavy objects on the South, West & South-West of the Plot is good whereas, on East, North and North-East is bad.
f. Plot adjacent to or near to any graveyard, cemetery, temple, mosque, tomb etc. is not good at all.
g. Many other factors are also there which cannot be mentioned there. So, if you are planning to buy a Plot, it’s better to first consult a Vastu Expert. However, above-mentioned points are enough to protect you from buying a complete negative Plot.
