PMRDA Building Permission Pune 2026: Process, Fees, Timeline & Online Portal

PMRDA covers the metropolitan ring outside PMC and PCMC limits: Hinjewadi, Marunji, Wakad fringe, Baner fringe, Sus, Nande, Manjri, Mundhwa-Kesnand corridor, Wagholi, Kharadi fringe, Charholi, Alandi fringe. Confirm from the 7/12 document — the 'विकास प्राधिकरण' line names the authority. MIDC-adjacent plots have their own overlay rules — confirm from the development plan, not from the marketing brochure.

1. 01Stage 1 - Development Permission (DP)Establishes the layout, road access, FSI applicable to the plot, common areas, plot boundaries, height zone. For a residential bungalow on a single plot, the DP is a pre-check; for a layout project, it is the bigger stage.
2. 02Stage 2 - Building Permission (BP)The actual construction sanction - same drawings as PMC/PCMC but reviewed under PMRDA's own DC rules. The two stages are sequential, not parallel - total timeline is 4–7 months from first submission, not 1–3.

• 7/12 extract (current, within 6 months)
• NA order (if applicable - most PMRDA plots are converted from agricultural)
• sanctioned layout
• architectural drawings (site plan, all floor plans, elevations, sections) by a registered architect
• structural drawings + stability certificate
• soil test report
• ownership chain documents
• the 7/12 + 8A + Ferfar check
• a Tree NOC if there are existing trees on the plot

PMRDA scrutiny fees are nominal; the bigger costs are the development charges (~1% of construction cost for residential) and the premium FSI charge (per sqft of excess FSI). For a 1,500 sqft G+1 plot, total statutory costs range from ₹80,000–1.4 lakh.

Timeline: 4–7 months total for both stages when the drawings are clean. PMRDA is slower than PMC/PCMC by design—the development plan review involves a deeper check.

1. 011. NA Order Missing or StaleThe most common cause of PMRDA permission rejections is a missing or outdated NA (Non-Agricultural) order.
2. 022. FSI Consumed Beyond Sanctioned LimitExceeding the Floor Space Index (FSI) limit sanctioned in the layout plan can lead to rejection.
3. 033. Setbacks Under PMRDA's DC RuleSetbacks must comply with PMRDA's Development Control (DC) rules, which are stricter than PMC regulations in certain areas.
4. 044. Tree NOC MissingA Missing No Objection Certificate (NOC) for trees on the site can result in permission denial.
5. 055. Development Plan InconsistencyThe architect's site plan must align with the layout plan; any discrepancies lead to rejection.

We prepare the drawings to PMRDA DC rules in-house, run the pre-submission check, file on the e-approval portal, handle both stages, and track the file to sanction. The PMRDA cost and timeline are quoted upfront at planning - before the construction contract.
