Overview
- The MCD Standing Committee approved the rebate for charges that homeowners must pay to regularise built areas in unauthorised colonies, a move announced late last week and publicised by officials.
- The up‑to‑75% reduction applies only to four specific fees: Compensatory Regulatory Charge, C&D Charge, Development Charge and Admin/IT Charge.
- The rebate is valid for applicants who complete regularisation by October 31, 2026, and will remain effective if the government extends that deadline.
- The decision builds on earlier steps that waived several UBBL‑2016 fees for construction existing up to April 6, 2026, and on a July 27 change that allows listed professionals to issue self‑assessment regularisation certificates to speed processing.
- Officials say the package is being promoted through camps, SMS alerts and publicity to reach residents across 1,511 PM‑UDAY colonies and that roughly 40,000 properties have so far received conveyance deeds or authorisation slips.
