Ahmedabad's town planning panel greenlights Makarba TP scheme changes

The town planning committee of the civic body has approved modifications to the Makarba Town Planning (TP) scheme 204, which pertains to plots designated as the R3 (Residential-3) zone in the western part of Ahmedabad. Sources indicate that a major change has been authorized, allowing development permission for plots measuring 300 square meters in the R3 zone.

Previously, the minimum area required for development in the R3 zone was established at 1,000 square meters after the implementation of the Comprehensive General Development Control Regulations (CGDCR) in 2017; however, construction was permitted on plots of 500 square meters. Now, development permission will also be granted for plots of 300 square meters.

In the TP committee meeting held in August, all proposed changes by the Town Planning Officer (TPO) for the Makarba TP scheme 204 were accepted. A 40% deduction was agreed upon for original plots, which included prime location farmhouses owned by more than 50 VVIP landowners. Modifications to reserve land for residential and commercial purposes were approved, resulting in 11.7% of the plots being set aside, totalling an area of 13.10 lakh square meters. The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) will receive 204 plots for residential and commercial sales, marking the first time that such a large area has been reserved for sale in a single TP scheme. Sources from the corporation mention that the draft for the TP scheme was developed for 1,12,13,582 square meters of land across Makarba, Sarkhej, Okaf, Vejalpur, and Ambli villages. This encompasses land for residential-1, residential-3, commercial, affordable housing, and agricultural zones. Although a 40% deduction standard was established for TP scheme 204, the average deduction standard was determined to be 35.09%. In instances where original plots received a lower deduction, a full 40% deduction will apply.
