PMRDA Development Permission and Layout Approval Process for Pune Region
PMRDA news, timelines and rule changes for Pune-region plots - for the full development permission & layout approval process, see the step-by-step 2026 guide.

In brief
- All residential construction on non-municipal plots in Pune district requires PMRDA building permission.
- Plots must belong to a sanctioned layout or have valid NA (Non-Agricultural) order.
- Online submission is processed via the PMRDA e-Challan and Building Permission scrutiny system.
- Standard approval timeline is 30 to 45 working days with compliant architectural drawings.
Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) oversees development permissions for town and rural plots outside PMC/PCMC limits. Here is how the sanction process works.
Mandatory Documents for PMRDA Building Permission
1. 7/12 Extract (digitally signed, issued within 3 months). 2. Demarcation Map (Mojani Nakasha) from the Land Records Department (TILR). 3. Architectural Drawings (Site Plan, Floor Plans, Elevation, Section) prepared by a registered architect. 4. Structural Stability Certificate from an accredited civil engineer.
For what each column of the 7/12 actually shows - and the NA/gunthewari checks before you file - see our [7/12 land record guide](/tools/seven-twelve/) and our [NA / Gunthewari plot-verification guide](/guides/na-permission-7-12-gunthewari-guide/).
