MUMBAI: The state government announced on Thursday an increase in monthly rent for tenants residing in dangerously dilapidated cessed buildings in Mumbai from Rs 20,000 to Rs 30,000 while alternative accommodations are provided during reconstruction.
Additionally, the government will revoke the no objection certificate (NoC) of developers who have failed to initiate the redevelopment of these cessed buildings under Development Control Regulation 33(7).
The assurances were made by the Minister of State for Urban Development, Pankaj Bhoyar, during the state assembly session.
“The government will seek clarification from developers and will revoke notices for those who haven’t started redevelopment after three years,” Bhoyar stated.
