Maharashtra Government Introduces Unified Development Control Rules for Real Estate

The Government of Maharashtra has approved the Unified Development Control and Promotion Regulations (UDCPR), to strengthen and bring uniformity in the real estate construction laws of the state.
The new set of rules will apply on all municipal corporations, councils and nagar panchayats in the entire state except Mumbai and some neighbouring areas like hill stations, eco-sensitive zones and specified corporation areas.
This uniform set of regulations will specify everything from height of buildings to the width of roads and size of amenity spaces.
It will help to increase the stock of affordable housing projects and improve ease of doing business as well as help the developers to improve their resource management.
