Following the directive of the state government, the Nashik Municipal Corporation (NMC) has decided to stop offline submission and approval of building plans. The builders will have to submit building plans online from January 1. The offline submission and approval of building plans had been started around three to four months ago following some problems with the online software. NMC officials said the state government has directed to start online submission and approval of building plans from the beginning of 2022. On December 2 last year, the state government introduced the unified Development Control & Promotion Regulations (UDCPR) for the entire state. All municipal corporations, councils and nagar panchayats (excluding Mumbai) have been brought under the ambit of the new rule. The state government introduced the unified DCPR to bring uniformity in the width of roads, size of rooms, etc. The state government also developed the software for online submission and approvals of the building plans. This online submission and approval of building plans came into effect from April 1, this year. But builders had to face some technical issues while submitting the building plans online. This also slowed the process for the building plan submission and approval. Hence, the Confederation of Real Estate Developers Association of India (CREDAI), Nashik and Maharashtra, had urged the state government to withdraw the online system until the technical problems in the software were sorted out. Instead, the association had demanded the state to start building plan submission and approval offline. Accordingly, the urban development department of the state government had given its nod to start an offline system for the building plans submission and approval from October 1. Now the state government has directed to start an online system.
