What laws are made about the construction of new buildings?
Answers
Answer:
Building Bye-Laws are legal tools used to regulate coverage, height, building bulk, and architectural design and construction aspects of buildings so as to achieve orderly development of an area.
In India, real estate developers have to adhere to a variety of other rules and regulations, apart from following the rules prescribed under the building bye-laws. A high level of compliance is often cited, as a key reason behind project delays, as the time involved in applying for permissions from various departments and getting their approvals is unduly long. Aside from central laws, builders also have to abide by rules set by local development authorities such as the Delhi Development Authority (DDA), the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), etc., throughout the construction cycle.
