Town and Country Planning Department Checklist for industrial buildings (Other than Multi-storeyed Buildings)
The Town and Country Planning Department, issued through the Commissioner of Town and Country Planning, provides this document checklist for applications concerning industrial buildings other than multi-storeyed buildings. It sets separate submission requirements for land inside a SIPCOT or SIDCO approved industrial layout and land outside such layouts.
What the checklist covers
The Town and Country Planning Department checklist identifies the ownership records, certificates, drawings, undertakings and clearances required for industrial building applications. Requirements depend on whether the plot is within a SIPCOT or SIDCO approved industrial layout.
Land in an approved SIPCOT or SIDCO industrial layout
Applicants for land in an approved SIPCOT or SIDCO industrial layout must submit:
- Self-attested sale deed, lease deed or power of attorney documents.
- An original encumbrance certificate covering 13 years, obtained up to a date not earlier than seven days before the application.
- Structural stability certificates in Forms A, B and C, signed by the owner, architect and structural design engineer, with seals and registration numbers.
- A Fire Service department no objection certificate.
- Forms covering structural design sufficiency, supervision and compliance with structural safety requirements.
- Drawings showing sewage treatment or evidence of underground drainage, rainwater harvesting, the site plan, building details and column design calculations.
- A copy of the SIPCOT or SIDCO approved layout.
- A no objection certificate from the agency maintaining a watercourse if a culvert is proposed across it.
- Any previously approved plan issued by DTCP for the site.

These include patta and adangal verification, an attested FMB or Town Survey sketch, Patta, Chitta or Town Survey Land Records in the owner's name, an original legal opinion on ownership, and details of the approach road for about 250 metres along the road abutting the site.
Other conditional requirements include:
