Hi Suresh,
Have you read the latest news? As per the Maharashtra Govt. in an attempt to cut red tape and delays in the building approvals system, the state government has planned a "one-stop" approval process for building projects in Mumbai.

Right Sandeep,
If all goes as planned, a single application for issuance of commencement certificate from the architect of a building project would soon be enough for securing the permission. The CM-led state Urban Development department issued directives to the BMC in this regard last week.

Yes, Maharashtra government had asked the BMC to put the new mechanism in place within a month. Senior officials confirmed that the civic body had already taken up the proposal for revising building approval procedures.

That's really a great news for the whole Mumbai real estate market and specially for the Mumbai's developer. At present some 40 pre-conditions and at least 10 NOCs need to be obtained individually before commencement certificate is issued to building projects. It will give much relief to the builder's and developers.

BMC approved plan and Commence Certificate are two stage of construction where you cannot get commence certificate (CC) without approved plan and legally you should not construct without obtaining CC.

Earlier approval of a plan was taking between 20 days and one month. Now the process would take about a week and subsequently it could be reduced to four to five days under automated building plan approval system. In order to submit a plan for online approval, you will require Login ID & password. You can get this by submitting a request to the department. The registered Engineer / Architect /Supervisor will guide you in filing all the required documents and affidavits
