The Chennai Development Authority is set to implement a new policy that introduces deemed No Objection Certificates (NOCs) for highrise buildings. This move aims to streamline the approval process for construction projects and enhance efficiency in urban development.

Under the new policy, highrise building projects that meet predefined criteria will be granted deemed NOCs, bypassing the traditional requirement of obtaining separate NOCs from various departments. This initiative is designed to reduce bureaucratic delays, accelerate project approvals, and facilitate smoother construction processes for developers.

The deemed NOCs will be automatically issued once a project complies with the specified guidelines and regulations. This policy change is expected to significantly simplify the regulatory framework, allowing builders to proceed with their projects without the need for multiple clearances from different authorities.

By adopting deemed NOCs, the Chennai Development Authority aims to improve the overall efficiency of the construction approval process and address the challenges faced by developers in obtaining timely approvals. The move is also anticipated to boost the real estate sector by encouraging more highrise developments and accelerating urban growth.

This new approach aligns with broader efforts to modernize and simplify urban planning and development procedures. It reflects a commitment to fostering a more conducive environment for real estate development while ensuring adherence to safety and regulatory standards.

Developers and stakeholders are advised to familiarize themselves with the new policy and the criteria for obtaining deemed NOCs. The initiative is expected to have a positive impact on the pace of construction and the growth of highrise projects in Chennai.
