Telangana Government Okays Conditional Registration of Unregistered Plots in Unauthorised Layouts
If an application is rejected, the amount paid will be refunded with a deduction of 10 per cent towards processing charges.
Hyderabad: The state government has decided to allow registration and processing of unregistered plots in unauthorised layouts, if the purchaser meets certain conditions like at least 10 per cent of plots in the layouts having been approved before August 2020.
The then commissioner and IG of registration and stamps office T. Chiranjeevulu had on August 26, 2020, issued a memo ordering that only approved and authorised plots or buildings would be registered.
According to the new amendment, the buyer should submit information in the prescribed format as provided by the Layout Regularisation Scheme (LRS) for registration of unregistered plots in unauthorised layouts, wherein 10 per cent of plots are sold through registered sale deed on or before the August 26, 2020, cut-off date. Towards this, the registering authority will verify encumbrance certificate (EC) details submitted by the applicant.
The applicant should submit undertaking documents, specifying, among other things, details of plots sold before the cut-off date, and documents through which they were sold. A provisional fee will be generated after payment of the layout regularisation charges and pro-rata open space charges.
The sub-registrar will register the plot and transmit details of LRS application and charges collected to LRS portal for further process.
Meanwhile, applications received from the sub-registrar will be duly scrutinised and if approved, the regularisation proceedings will be generated.
If an application is rejected, the amount paid will be refunded with a deduction of 10 per cent towards processing charges.
Register plots in unauthorised layouts by March 31 and get 25% rebate
With the state government announcing a 25 per cent rebate on fee for individuals seeking registration of plots in unauthorised layouts, the municipal administration and urban development (MA&UD) is expediting the process.
Layout regularisation scheme (LRS) applications that do not fall in the category of prohibited list of land, water bodies/lakes within 200 metres of full tank level (FTL), the provisional LRS fee will be automatically generated and informed to the applicant. The applicant can only avail the 25 per cent rebate and pay LRS charges by March 31.
On receipt of payment, the site will be inspected and if found that it complies with all guidelines, the regularisation proceedings will be issued.
If the application is rejected, the amount paid will be refunded with a deduction of 10 per cent of the total amount towards processing charges.
Municipal commissioners and the staff of urban development authorities (UDA), HMDA, GHMC and directorate of town and country planning will identify the survey numbers falling within water bodies/lakes and within 200 metres of FTL, which they will send to the Centre for Good Governance (CGG), along with survey numbers that are adjacent to government land holdings.
This task will ensure that only LRS applications falling in these survey numbers are sent to irrigation and revenue departments for scrutiny and field inspection. On the recommendations of the irrigation and revenue officials, the municipal/panchayat officials will process the applications further.
“The DT&CP will coordinate this process,” said an official from the MA&UD department.
The LRS applications other than these will be verified either by municipal or panchayat raj officials.
