Once the plans with all the documents certified by the Architects and the Structural Engineer and fees are submitted, they will be taken on record and treated as permitted.
A Building Plan Fee of Rs. 200/- will be charged for processing the plans, irrespective of covered area involved. In addition to this, a charge of Rs. 450/- per square meter will be levied for additional covered area proposed to be constructed.
To ensure structural safety and proper construction, the Certificate of Supervision by Architect and Structural Engineer is mandatory, along with an indemnity bond for structural stability. This will not be required by those who have given NOC only.
