Company Profile
7. Land & Building Approval
7
1) Land Title:
First and foremost, the builder has to get clear title for the land or plot. Clear title
ensures that the property is clear, marketable and it traces any charges or encumbrances
created on the property and its present status. It enables a prospective buyer to know the
chain of holdings, transfers over a period and check any dispute on the ownership of the
property.
2) Land Clearance:
On account of urbanization agricultural land is sometimes converted into Non –
Agricultural land which can further be used for constructing building for residential or
commercial purpose. In such cases a developer needs to get approval from concerned
authority to convert agricultural land to non-agricultural (NA) purpose.
Approval for change in land use of the plot is required from local body and the State
Ministry of urban Development (UD), when the land use shown in master plan / zonal
plan (where the plot is located)/ land allotment letter is to be changed (as the same is not
permitted / not compatible with master plan/ zonal pan).
3) Zonal Clearance:
After the land title & clearance, builder is required to take zoning approval from the
local body / authority.
•The revenue department provides the ownership certificate for building permit under
the provisions of Local Body Acts.

4) Building Approval:
The next step requires an approval from authority for sanction of building plans/
building permit under the provisions of Building Byelaws, Master plan and Local Body
Acts. The Building approval comprises of the building plan and the layout approval for
the construction of the building.
5) Completion Certificate:
After the construction is completed, Completion certificate is mandatory for building
constructed before selling the building.
The completion certificate is issued after the inspection process. Issuing of Completion
Certificate will ensure that the builder or owner has constructed the building as per
approved plan.
6) Services & Utilities Installation:
The builder should get approval from concerned authorities for electricity, gas and water
for potable and non-potable use. The building should comply with building laws for
sanction or approval of basic amenities. The builder has to get NOC from pollution
board on the project. Builder has to get NOC from municipality or respective authority
for digging bore well. It is essential for the approval for sewer or water supply.
7) Occupancy Certificate:
Lastly, an occupancy Certificate is required from local body/ authority before occupation
of a building or part of a building for any purpose. The local body forwards the
proposals to the various other concerned authorities in the city as required for issue of
case specific approvals/ NOC before granting Completion-cum-Occupancy Certificate.
