Overview
- The Brihanmumbai Slum Rehabilitation Authority is the nodal agency, with eligibility set at contiguous areas of at least 50 acres where over 51% of land is under slums.
- Clusters proposed by the SRA CEO will be vetted by a committee chaired by the Additional Chief Secretary (Housing) before final government approval.
- Projects may proceed via government joint ventures, tendered private developers, or a developer holding over 40% of a cluster’s land, with central or PSU lands included subject to consent.
- The policy permits FSI up to 4 and higher strictly for rehabilitating slum dwellers or project‑affected persons, addresses CRZ areas, and applies DCIR/Regulation 33(10) incentives where they offer greater benefit.
- Private landowners can opt for developed plots approximating 50% of land value or face acquisition under the 2013 LARR Act at the developer’s cost, while a parallel sewage treatment and reuse policy funds 424 urban bodies with Rs 500 crore under Urban Development Department oversight.
