Kolkata Civic Body to Centralise Building Data

The Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC) is undertaking a significant initiative to enhance transparency and accessibility in the city's real estate sector. The KMC has announced plans to upload comprehensive information about buildings onto a centralised online portal, providing easy access to crucial data for stakeholders and the public alike.

This move aims to streamline processes related to building permissions, occupancy certificates, and compliance records, fostering greater efficiency and accountability in the real estate ecosystem. By centralising building information on a digital platform, the KMC seeks to facilitate smoother interactions between citizens, developers, and regulatory authorities.

The online portal will serve as a one-stop destination for accessing vital details about properties across Kolkata, including ownership information, construction history, and regulatory approvals. This initiative aligns with the broader digital transformation agenda of the KMC, aimed at leveraging technology to improve service delivery and governance.

Furthermore, the availability of comprehensive building data online is expected to empower citizens with greater insights into the real estate landscape, enabling informed decision-making regarding property transactions and investments. Additionally, it will promote greater transparency and accountability in the construction and maintenance of buildings within the city.

The KMC's initiative to centralise building information on a digital platform reflects a progressive approach towards urban governance and real estate administration. By embracing digitalization, the civic body aims to enhance efficiency, transparency, and public trust in the management of the city's built environment.
