Hyderabad, March 22: The Telangana government has revised construction regulations to promote real estate development in Hyderabad. Builders will now have more flexibility with Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) rules, extending to the Outer Ring Road (ORR) limits.
A government order has been issued to enhance flexibility in the use of TDR in building construction. The aim is to stimulate real estate growth in the city by streamlining TDR provisions and relaxing construction parameters along the ORR.
The Municipal Administration and Urban Development Department has introduced several amendments to the Telangana Building Rules, 2012, through this order. The government stated that these directives were released after reviewing presentations from various stakeholders, intending to simplify TDR usage and increase flexibility in construction rules.
Under the new guidelines, buildings taller than 21 meters will be classified as high-rise. For plots ranging from 750 to 2,000 square meters, buildings between 18 and 21 meters high can only be constructed using TDR, provided that necessary parking and other regulations are adhered to.
The new regulations also allow for relaxed setbacks through TDR for non-high-rise buildings. High-rise constructions will receive a 10% setback exemption via TDR, as long as a minimum distance of seven meters is maintained on all sides.
Plots larger than 2,000 square meters can now obtain additional floors through TDR. The number of extra floors permitted will depend on the width of the road: three additional floors for a 40-foot wide road, four for a 60-foot wide road, and five for an 80-foot wide road.
