Power Delegation Details, Building Plan Permission
Power Delegation Details, Building Plan Permission is official guidance issued by the department identified as DTCP for routing building plan permission applications among DTCP, CMDA and local bodies. It classifies residential, commercial and other buildings by FSI area, height, number of kitchens or dwelling units, and floor configuration, but the source provides no order number or date.
