User Manual for Applicant over NOC process
The Department of Housing and Urban Development, Government of Tamilnadu issued the User Manual for Applicant over NOC process as guidance for applicants using the Tamilnadu State Wide Single Window Portal for Planning Permission. It explains how to request or upload NOC documents for layout and building plan applications, track their status, attend any site inspection and respond to departmental queries.
What the manual covers
The User Manual for Applicant over NOC process explains the online steps for handling NOC requirements linked to layout and building plan applications. Applicants use the Tamilnadu State Wide Single Window Portal for Planning Permission at https://onlineppa.tn.gov.in/SWP-web/login.
The portal also displays services for reclassification, plinth inspection, last storey inspection and completion certificates, but the instructions in this manual focus on the NOC process.
Who it affects
The User Manual for Applicant over NOC process is relevant to applicants who already have login credentials for the portal and need to obtain or provide NOC documents for a layout or building plan application. The portal uses application details to show the NOC departments available for that application.
How to start an NOC application
Applicants must:
- Open the portal and select Login.
- Enter the user ID, password and displayed captcha.
- Open the Layout or Building Plan module.
- Select the relevant application and click NOC Apply.
- Review the NOC departments displayed for the application.
- Choose Request or Upload where the relevant option is available.
- Click Save to create the selected NOC entries.
Request sends an NOC request to the concerned department. The approval or rejection copy is then provided through the portal application and shown to both CMDA and DTCP. Upload is used when the applicant has already obtained an approved NOC document from the relevant department.
Departments and processing
The User Manual for Applicant over NOC process shows possible NOC entries including AAI, Agricultural Department, Agricultural Engineering, ASI, CMRL, Revenue, Collector (Religious), CRZ, Elcot, Environmental Clearance, Pollution Control Board, PWD, SH, SIDCO, Southern Railways, Housing Board and WRD.
After saving, the selected NOC entries appear in a list. The applicant must open each relevant entry, provide the necessary details and submit it to the concerned department. Status updates appear both in the NOC list and in the application.
Inspections and queries
A concerned NOC department may arrange a site inspection. The applicant is informed by email and should be available on the inspection date. If the department raises a call for particulars, the applicant receives an email and the portal displays the updated status. The applicant can open the relevant department entry, download the particulars letter and respond with the appropriate documents.
