In a big relief to house owners and builders, the South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) has made the procedure of getting building plans sanctioned completely online. The first day of the facility, the civic body issued 991 plans. The move has come under the Central government's 'ease of doing business' initiative. The facility is aimed to ease the process of issuing construction permits in the national Capital.

According to the corporation officials, since the implementation of online system, 132 Occupancy Cum Certificates have also been issued online by all the three municipal corporations -- East, North and South. The BJP-ruled corporations have also taken other reforms to streamline the single-window system such as single super-imposed colour coded zonal map to ascertain the requirement of nature and extent of No Objection Certificate (NOC) for a particular property. In order to facilitate sanctions, external departments such as the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), National Monuments Authority, Delhi Fire Service, Chief Inspector OF Factory, Heritage Conservation Committee and Airports Authority of India have also been integrated with the online facility.

Property owners can go on the corporation's website and click on the Form Application Common (CAF) module to avail the facility.

"Maximum 30 days are required for issuance of construction permits, of which 15 days are required for all the NOCs of external agencies and other 15 days are required for processing and sanctioning at the end of municipal corporations," the official said.

Also, he said, in case any department fails to decide the case within the stipulated time, it will be deemed as sanctioned by the system. To benefit the end user, many of the NOCs from external agencies required earlier during the sanction of a plan such as DJB, Discoms etc. have been dispensed with and are no more required now for the issuance of a permit.
