What is DTCP?
It is an agency established to regulate planning and urban development in a state. The Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP) formulates policies that sets in motion an integrated approach towards planned development. The DTCP also advises other agencies and planning bodies, related to commercial, residential real estate and urban planning, to regulate development and prevent unauthorized constructions.
All real estate developers in India need to get a green signal from the concerned state-run DTCP to initiate comparatively large-scale projects. Each state has its own DTCP.
In Tamil Nadu, for instance, real estate developers should get an approval from the state DTCP for layouts exceeding 2.47 acres of land in corporations, municipalities, and town panchayats. Local Planning Authorities (LPAs) have the power to give permissions for small-scale developments. Local planning bodies in Tamil Nadu can approve residential, commercial, and institutional developments spanning up to 26,910 square feet area in non-high rise buildings category. To develop projects beyond that limit, a builder will have to seek DTCP’s permission.
