Bengaluru Introduces Self-Declaration for Online Building Plan Approval

14 Mar 2024 CW Team

Bengaluru has announced a new system for online building plan approval, based on self-declaration for residential properties. This initiative aims to streamline the approval process, enhance efficiency, and simplify procedures for homeowners and developers in the city.

Under the new system, applicants for building plan approvals will be able to self-declare compliance with building regulations and norms. This approach is expected to expedite the approval process and reduce bureaucratic hurdles, facilitating faster and smoother construction of residential properties in Bengaluru.

The introduction of self-declaration for online building plan approvals reflects the government's commitment to promoting ease of doing business and fostering a conducive environment for real estate development in Bengaluru. By embracing technology and simplifying regulatory procedures, authorities aim to encourage investment and growth in the city's residential sector.

The new system is anticipated to benefit homeowners, builders, and developers by eliminating the need for physical documentation and expediting the approval timeline. It also signifies a shift towards greater transparency and accountability in the building approval process, promoting trust and confidence among stakeholders.

As Bengaluru adopts self-declaration for online building plan approvals, stakeholders in the real estate sector are encouraged to leverage the streamlined process to expedite project timelines and enhance operational efficiency. The initiative is expected to contribute to the overall development and growth of Bengaluru's residential real estate market.
