Same ward, adjoining ward or within 5 km

Updated · Based on DCPR 2034

Both PAP (Regulation 33(20)(B)) and PTC (Regulation 33(11)) let the tenement component move off the plot that earns the FSI — but not just anywhere. The other plot has to be in the same municipal ward, a ward adjoining it, or within 5 km.

The three ways a location qualifies

  • Same ward: both plots in the same BMC administrative ward (for example both in K/W).
  • Adjoining ward: the other plot is in a ward that shares a boundary with yours.
  • Within 5 km: the plots are no more than 5 km apart, whatever their wards.

What it costs

When built-up area is shifted, an unearned income of 40% of the difference in its sale value — at the Ready Reckoner (ASR) rates of the two locations — is payable. For PAP tenements, the Municipal Commissioner may instead accept built-up area of equal ASR value at the new plot:

Equal-value built-up area (Regulation 33(20)(B)(m))
