“Earlier, the map approval process was done manually. But, now, we have planned to launch a facility for online approval of maps. Once the facility will come into the action, a person can easily get the approval of building map online by just sitting at home” said Alok Tandon, Chairman, Noida Authority.
To apply for map approval online, users can visit the authority’s website and select the online map approval option. They will then be required to make an online profile by keying in details such as name, email id and phone number.
“Consumers will be provided with a one-time password (OTP). After using the OTP, users can log in for map approval. They will be able to upload soft copy of the map and the other required documents,” Tandon said.
After entering all the required details, users will also be able to pay the application fee online.
“After getting confirmation that the consumer has deposited the fee, a message will be generated. The message will be sent to the map approval authority. The authority will then check whether the map complies with the building by-laws and other details. Then, the map will get approval,” Tandon said.
“The entire process will take around 48 hours. If there will be any flaws found in the map, the authority will send an e-mail to the user notifying about the same,” Tandon added.
He further informed that the trial for the new system has been done and few changes are being incorporated currently. He said that the facility will be available to users from October onwards.
In the first phase, the authority will provide online approval for the map of residential and industrial plots while for other properties the online approval facility will be launched in December this year.
