G.O.(Ms.) No.88, Allotment of plots, flats and Houses on First come First serve basis
The Government of Tamil Nadu Housing and Urban Development [HB3(1)] Department issued G.O.(Ms.) No.88 on 28 July 2023, granting administrative approval for the Tamil Nadu Housing Board to allot plots, flats and houses on a first come, first served basis. The order directs the Managing Director of the Tamil Nadu Housing Board to submit separate guidelines to the Government.
What the order does
G.O.(Ms.) No.88, issued by the Government of Tamil Nadu Housing and Urban Development [HB3(1)] Department on 28 July 2023, accepts the proposal of the Managing Director of the Tamil Nadu Housing Board to implement first come, first served allotment of plots, flats and houses.
The approval follows an announcement by the Minister for Housing and Urban Development during the Assembly demand for the year 2023 to 2024. The document records that the announcement was made on 13 April 2023.
Who it affects
The Tamil Nadu Housing Board is responsible for implementing the approved allotment arrangement. People interested in obtaining Tamil Nadu Housing Board plots, flats or houses may be affected because the approved basis of allotment is first come, first served.
The document itself does not identify particular districts, schemes, land extents or numbers of units. The scheme table refers generally to flats, plots and houses, but its district, land extent and funding details are not filled in.
Key provisions
G.O.(Ms.) No.88 records the following decisions and background:
- The Tamil Nadu Housing Board resolved to approve implementation through its Resolution No.4.04 dated 23 June 2023.
- The Managing Director sent the proposal to the Government by letter dated 27 July 2023.
- The Government examined and accepted the proposal for first come, first served allotment.
- The administrative approval covers plots, flats and houses allotted by the Tamil Nadu Housing Board.
- The Managing Director of the Tamil Nadu Housing Board must send separate guidelines to the Government.
What buyers should note
G.O.(Ms.) No.88 provides administrative approval, but it does not contain the detailed application or allotment guidelines. It does not specify eligibility conditions, application procedures, prices, fees, payment terms, reservation arrangements, available locations or a list of properties.
A prospective applicant would therefore need the separate guidelines or further information from the Tamil Nadu Housing Board to understand how to apply and how priority under the first come, first served basis will be determined.
