14.8.6 The permissible FSI for URC –

i) The FSI permissible in the URS shall be the FSI required for rehabilitation of existing occupiers/tenants + incentive FSI under this Regulation, or 4.00 whichever is higher. Provided that the Incentive FSI component on rehabilitation area shall be governed by the ratio of Land Rate (LR) (in Rs. Per Sq.m.) of the URC under redevelopment to the Rate of Construction (RC) (in Rs. Per Sq.m.), as per the Annual Statement of Rates (ASR) applicable to the area and size of the URC as given in the table below.

Basic Ratio (LR / RC *)	Incentive as per scheme
Basic Ratio (LR / RC *)	More than 0.40 ha up to 1.0 ha.	More than 1.0 ha. up to 5.0 ha.	For more 5.0
Above 2.00	1.75	2.00	2.25
Above 1.50 and up to 2.00	2.00	2.25	2.50
Above 1.00 and up to 1.50	2.25	2.50	2.75
Upto 1.00	2.50	2.75	3.00

Explanation :-

(a) In case of different land rates area applicable to different parts of the URC, weighted

average of all the applicable rates shall be taken for calculating the Average land rate and

basic ratio.

(b) The land rate and the rate of construction for calculation of the basic ratio shall be taken

for the year in which the URS is approved by the competent authority and shall remain unchanged during the entire project cycle of the URS.

FSI shall be calculated over the gross area of the URC, deducting area falling in CRZ and Forest areas if any. However, if the area in CRZ-II is up to 25% of the URC then the FSI shall be allowed to be used in non-CRZ areas. However, no FSI shall be allowed for the area from CRZ-1. Out of the construction area allowed as per Global FSI, FSI that cannot be actually utilized in URC, due to constraints imposed by different provisions of UDCPR, or otherwise, shall be converted into Urban Renewal TDR (URT) which shall be utilizable on a receiving plot.

ii) The URT may be released by the Commissioner in stages to be decided by him but URT released at any point of time shall never exceed construction done in URC with respect to buildings where Occupation Certificates have been granted and 50% of construction done in URC with respect to buildings where Occupation Certificates are not granted.

iii) The FSI for an Urban Renewal Scheme in the CRZ area shall be governed by the MoEF Notifications issued from time to time, and the same shall be taken into account while computing permissible FSI as per Clause (i) above.

Plot area, considered after deducting the area of URC falling in CRZ / Forest area and area under unbuildable reservations, etc. shall be primarily used for rehabilitation of existing occupants and development of buildable reservations and public amenities with required FSI. After the said development, if there are any eligible occupants left who could not be rehabilitated due to the inability to construct the requisite area for rehabilitation and relocation, owing to constraints imposed by UDCPR, shall be rehabilitated in any nearby URS or in the PAP tenements available with the Corporation; as per the policy guidelines decided by the Corporation.

iv) If after construction of rehabilitation tenements and other areas of entitlement as per the provisions of this Regulation, there is still some building potential left as per the ceiling of 4.0 FSI, construction can be done for free sale, either in independent buildings, or on sub- plots or in composite buildings or in undivided plots along with rehabilitation component.

v) When the FSI is available in URC in case less than 4.0 then 50% of the difference in FSI shall be constructed in the form of EWS/LIG tenements and shall be handed over to the Commissioner. The commissioner may use these tenements preferably for transit accommodation, PAP tenements or staff quarters. However if tenements are not needed for the above purpose then the Municipal Commissioner shall after realization of proceeds from the disposal of these tenements, deposit such proceeds in the Shelter Fund set up under this Regulation.

14.8.7 Development of Reservations contemplated in Development Plan falling in the area of URC –

i) All the reservations in the Development plan falling in the area of URC shall be provided and may be rearranged/relocated, under URS as follows :-

a) Redevelopment/reconstruction in any zone shall be allowed to be undertaken without going through the process of change of zone. However, for the industrial user, the existing segregating distance shall be maintained from the existing industrial unit.

b) Any land under non-buildable reservations, measuring only up to 500 sq. mt. maybe cleared by shifting the existing tenants from that site.

c) If the area under a non-buildable reservation is more than 500 sq. mt. minimum of 50% of the area under reservation shall be developed for the same purpose and handed over to the Municipal Corporation, subject to a minimum of 500 sq. mt. and the remaining land shall be allowed for development.

d) For the reservation of a parking lot on a land included in URC, a built-up area equivalent to zonal permissible FSI for the area under reservation in that plot shall be made available free of cost to the Corporation or to any other Appropriate Authority. Such a built-up area to be handed over shall be free of FSI.

e) For other buildable reservations on land, built-up area equal to 60% of the zonal permissible FSI under such reservations or existing built-up area of the amenity whichever is more, on that plot shall be made available free of FSI and free of cost to the Municipal Corporation or to the Appropriate Authority. The reservations of compatible nature can be preferably constructed in one or more separate blocks, depending on the area and nature of such reservations and Municipal Commissioner may permit composite development of reservations in case of such reservations.

However, if the HPC/Planning Authority requires a built-up area under any designation/reservation in excess of the zonal permissible FSI, then such excess area shall be considered as rehabilitation FSI and incentive FSI as admissible under this Regulation shall be permissible.

Provided that in case of development of reservations of PH / HDH & HD under the Urban Renewal Scheme, built-up area equal to 30% of the zonal permissible FSI shall be handed over to the Municipal Corporation free of FSI and free of cost, in addition to the rehabilitation of the existing tenements or users if any.

f) Where a proposed Development Plan Road or Regular line of street passes through the Urban Renewal Scheme area, the entire FSI admissible under this Regulation for the area of the road may be given in the same Scheme.

g) Built-up area required for the development of public amenities/reservations shall not be counted while computing permissible FSI under URS. If URS includes areas falling under CRZ and Forest, subject to NOCs of the concerned Authority, these areas may be considered against the compulsory open space to be kept as per DCR.

h) The multiuser mix user in High rise or composite building for public purpose amenities shall be permitted.

ii) If the area under non-buildable reservation except Play Ground in the URS area is more than 2000 sq.m. a minimum of 50% of the area of such reservation or 2000 Sq.m. whichever is more shall be developed for the said purpose.

ii) Person(s) in legal possession and ownership of encumbered land where authorized buildings have consumed FSI less than the permissible FSI :- If the liability of rehabilitation of the occupants of the building(s)/Structure(s) on the land in question is being taken on URS, entitled area collectively against such parcel of land shall be 25% of the area of encumbered land plus the difference of FSI available on such parcel land and the encumbrance; if the occupants of the building(s) are being independently rehabilitated/compensated by the person(s)/rights holders in legal possession and ownership of the land, and not being rehabilitated in URS, entitled area collectively against such parcel of land towards consideration shall be equal to FSI available on the vacated land area.

Provided that the area of rehab is less than the component of free sale, the component for free sale could be enhanced up to 30% by the Municipal Commissioner in consultation with HPC.

iii) Person(s) in possession and ownership of authorized encumbered land where buildings have consumed FSI more than permissible FSI :- If liability of rehabilitation of the occupants of the building(s)/Structure(s) in question is on the land being taken on URS, entitled area collectively against such parcel of land shall be 25% of land area, if the occupants of the building(s)/Structure(s) are being independently rehabilitated/compensated by the person(s)/rights-holder (s); in possession and ownership of the land, and not being rehabilitated in URS, entitled area collectively against such parcel of land towards consideration shall be equal to FSI available on the vacated land area.

iv) Person(s) having right over unauthorisedly encumbered land :- Entitled area collectively against this parcel of land shall be calculated at 50% of entitled area calculated as per clause (ii) and (iii) above, except when occupant(s) of the building(s) are being rehabilitated/compensated by such Person(s) and are not being rehabilitated in URS, entitled area towards consideration shall be equal to FSI available on the vacated land area.

14.8.9 Planning for Rehabilitation and Free Sale Plots in URS –

i) The net area of URC shall be calculated after deducting the area under CRZ and Forest, if any. Out of the total net area of the URC, a maximum of 50% area in terms of one or more plots, to be called Free Sale Plots, shall be carved out for raising resources to cover the cost of construction of rehabilitation components and development of all the reservations and amenities. While carving out Free Sale Plots, due weightage shall be given to the fact that the higher is the percentage of these plots in terms of area, the more dense is the Rehabilitation Area, and in exceptional cases, the Commissioner may reduce these Free Sale Plots to zero. The percentage of the free sale plot may be enhanced up to 50% subject to approval by the HPC by considering 100% in-situ Rehabilitation with consumption of minimum FSI of 2.5 and if the net plot area excluding the Recreation Ground area is more than 8000 Sq.mt. under URS. The constructed area available on this Free Sale Plot collectively shall be equal to that available over the whole URC minus that required for rehabilitation and relocation. If Free Sale Plots are more than one, the Commissioner may distribute the available free sale construction area under URS over such plots, as he may deem fit. Such free-sale plots shall be deemed to belong to the C-1/C-2 Zone for the purposes of permissible users thereon.

Provided that, in exceptional cases, the above percentage of free sale plot may further be enhanced beyond 50% in order to make the scheme viable and minimize generation of URT, subject to fulfillment of the following conditions, subject to the approval of HPC :-

a) 100% in-situ rehabilitation;

b) no dilution more than what is mentioned in Regulation No.14.8.7, in the area of development plan reservations.

ii) After the development of reservations, any occupants who could not be settled due to non-buildability of the required construction area for rehabilitation and relocation, owing to constraints imposed by DCR, shall be rehabilitated in the nearby URS or PAP tenements available with the Corporation; as per policy guidelines decided by the Corporation.

iii) Two or more contiguous URCs within a notified URP having different densities may be permitted to get clubbed for implementation purposes sharing the densities in order to ensure balanced development increasing the viability of clusters.

Provision for Amenity Space in UDCPR 2020

There are general regulations about any construction permissible on land and no piece of land shall be used as a site for the construction of a building if the site is not eligible for it.

If the Authority considers that the site is insanitary, incapable of being well-drained, or is dangerous to construct a building on it then it is not permissible to use this land as a site for construction.

For Example, if the site is in Defense land, Railway region Hilly region, or not drained properly in this case there one cannot construct anything on the land without considering the regulations.

This information about reservations and their use is very important when someone starts actual planning, whether they are land owners, builders, or construction owners. It is a must-know information before purchasing land or starting construction on the land

UDCPR 2020 Chapter 3 is all about General Land Development Requirements.

Rule No. 3.5 Provision for Amenity Space

Amenity Space is space to be left for the government for planning various public amenities like schools, hospitals, libraries, fire stations, police chowki, etc.

This space is to be handed over to the government and the owner gets FSI as compensation for the land. (In short, there is only loss of space but no loss of FSI)

3.5.1

In the areas of Local Authorities, Special Planning Authorities, and Metropolitan Region Development Authorities, Amenity Space as mentioned below on gross area after deducting area under reservations/roads in the Development Plan including proposals of road widening therein, shall have to be provided in any layout or subdivision of land or proposal for development.

Area of Land	Minimum Amenity Space to be provided
a) less than 20000 sq.m	Nil
b) 20000 sq.m or more	5% of the total area.

These amenity spaces shall be developed by the owner for the uses mentioned in the definition of amenity. However, the Authority may insist for handing over the amenity space to the Authority, if it is required for the following six purposes only.

i) Garden.

ii) Playground.

iii) Municipal School.

iv) Municipal Hospital.

v) Fire Brigade.

In such circumstances, amenity space shall be deemed to be reservations/proposals in the Development Plan, and Floor Space Index (FSI) in lieu thereof may be made available in situ on the remaining land. The calculation of this in-situ FSI shall be shown on the layout/building plan. If the owner desires to have TDR against it, instead of in-situ FSI, then he may be awarded TDR. The in-situ FSI or TDR shall be granted only after the transfer of the amenity space to the Authority. The generation of TDR or in-situ FSI shall be equivalent to the quantum mentioned in Regulation No.11.2 of Transferable Development Rights.

Regulation No.11.2 of Transferable Development Rights

Transferable Development Rights (TDR) are compensation in the form of Floor Space Index (FSI) or Development Rights which shall entitle the owner to the construction of a built-up area subject to provisions in this regulation. This FSI credit shall be issued in a certificate which shall be called as Development Right Certificate (DRC).

Development Rights Certificate (DRC) shall be issued by the Authority under his signature and endorsed thereon in writing in figures and in words, the FSI credit in square meters of the built-up area to which the owner or lessee is entitled, the place from where it is generated and the rate of that plot as prescribed in the Annual Statement of Rates issued by the Registration Department for the concerned year.TDR generated within the jurisdiction of a particular Authority shall be utilized within the jurisdiction of the same Authority as per this regulation.

If in the case of B & C Class Municipal Councils, Nagar panchayats, and R.P. areas, such amenity space may be located on 9 m. road, however, in such cases, special buildings on amenity plots shall not be allowed.

iii) This regulation shall not be applicable to Regulation No.4.8.1, (i.e.Regulation for allowing Residential/Commercial users in Industrial Zone), wherein separate provision of land for public amenities/utilities is made.

iv) This regulation shall not be applicable where the entire development permission is for amenities specified in the definition of amenity space in these Regulations and also for uses other than residential permissible in an agricultural zone. This regulation shall also not be applicable, if construction on the entire plot is for a hotel building or IT establishment/building.

v) This regulation shall not be applicable to the Town Planning Scheme area under the M. R. & T. P. Act, 1966, or similar schemes permitted in agricultural zones.

vi) This regulation shall not be applicable for revision of earlier sanctioned development permissions granted under the regulations in force prior to these regulations and work is commenced, where no such amenity space has been provided in development permission sanctioned earlier.

Relocation of D.P Reservations (Except Road) UDCPR 2020

There are general regulations about any construction permissible on land, and no piece of land shall be used as a site for the construction of a building if the site is not eligible for it.

Suppose the Authority considers that the site is insanitary, incapable of being well-drained, or dangerous to construct a building on. In that case, it is not permissible to use this land as a site for construction.

For Example, if the site is in Defense land, Railway region Hilly region, or not appropriately drained in this case there, one cannot construct anything on the land without considering the regulations. This information about reservations and their use is essential when someone starts actual planning, whether they are land owners, builders, or construction owners. It is a must-know information before purchasing land or starting construction on the land.

UDCPR 2020 Chapter 3 is all about General Land Development Requirements.

Rule 3.10 Transfer of Land Under D.P Sites (Other than D.P. Road) In Leau of FSI

If in any development proposal, the owner desires to hand over the reserved site/area free of cost to the Authority, then FSI of such reserved site/area equivalent to the TDR may be allowed to be utilized on the remaining land. The transfer deed to that effect shall be executed, and the FSI calculation shall be mentioned in the plans of the development proposal. In the case of plotted layout, distribution of FSI on plots in pursuance of such transfer shall be as desired by the owner and up to maximum building potential according to road width as mentioned in Regulation No.6.3. It may differ from plot to plot; however, the receiving plot shall front on the road having minimum 9.0 m. width. If some FSI remains unutilized, the owner shall be entitled for TDR against the remaining FSI. In such cases where in-situ FSI is proposed to be used, the DRC procedure shall not be insisted on.

3.11 Relocation of D.P/R.P Sites/Roads

If the land proposed to be laid out for any development is affected by any reservations of public purposes, the Authority may allow adjusting the location of such reservation to suit development without altering the area of such reservation. Provided that such shifting of the reservations shall not be permitted :-

a) If the reservation proposed to be relocated is in parts.
