Till June 2010, Local bodies could
approve plans for houses up to 2,000 sq.ft. and commercial buildings up to

The Department of Housing and Urban Development has raised the
ceiling on the square feet of plans of buildings that approved by
local bodies (corporations, municipalities, town panchayats and village
panchayats).
In an order issued 2010, June, the department announced that the
new order would take effect on June 1, 2010.
The order said local bodies could approve plans for residential
buildings upto 4,000 sq.ft. The plans could be for a single house or a group of
four houses totally measuring up to 4,000 sq.ft.
The local bodies till June 2010 had powers to approve plans for

commercial structures. Plans for bigger buildings had to be submitted to the
Local Planning Authority (LPA) that came under the Directorate of Town and
