House construction may get costlier in south, east Delhi

South and East Delhi residents contemplating the construction of residential buildings may soon find themselves facing higher costs. The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) is in the early stages of planning to introduce "compensatory regulatory charges," a fee that was previously only enforced in North Delhi by the former north corporation.

The proposed fee structure will be based on the built-up area of new residential buildings or extensions made to existing residential structures. According to senior MCD officials, these charges will be applied during the approval process for building plans.

Historically, prior to the unification of MCD, compensatory regulatory charges were exclusive to North Delhi, where they were required when seeking approval for new constructions. This encompassed both entirely new structures and additional constructions planned as extensions to existing buildings.

The expansion of these charges to South and East Delhi signifies a potential increase in construction expenses in these areas. This development reflects changing regulations aimed at managing urban development within the city. As a result, developers and residents engaged in building projects and seeking approvals in these regions will need to adapt to this evolving landscape.
