This GIS Tutorial is about How to Download the Latest Land Use Land Cover Data !!
In this video, I have shown you the sources and steps to extract Landuse and Landcover (LULC) data for Gujarat State, Here you can download any state LULC data.
In general,
The MODIS Land Cover Type product is a global land cover classification data layer produced annually from 2001 to till Dec 2017.
For each year there are five land cover schemes, developed by different research groups. Data are distributed by the USGS at 500m resolution in standard MODIS grid tiles.
The following USGS site has detailed meta data and download access:

The MODIS Terra + Aqua Land Cover Type Yearly L3 Global 500 m SIN Grid product incorporates the following five different land cover classification schemes, each derived through a supervised decision-tree classification method:
Land Cover Type 1: IGBP global vegetation classification scheme
Land Cover Type 2: University of Maryland (UMD) scheme
Land Cover Type 3: MODIS-derived LAI/fPAR scheme
Land Cover Type 4: MODIS-derived Net Primary Production (NPP) scheme
Land Cover Type 5: Plant Functional Type (PFT) scheme

The five research groups developed their own classification schemes to categorize land cover properties using one year of Terra and Aqua MODIS data. The International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) Type 1 land cover scheme identifies 17 land cover classes (0 – 16) which include 11 natural vegetation classes, 3 developed and mosaicked land classes, and three non-vegetated land classes.
