Is DTP ( probably Town Panchayat / Local Body ) approval for land acceptable ? Is DTP ( probably Town Panchayat / Local Body ) approval for land acceptable ?

9 months ago

I have come across a land in Chennai which is being claimed as having DTP approval. While am not given the full form of DTP, I am being told that it is different from DTCP and is an older approval which is still valid today. This land is outside the Chennai city limits and is closer to the beach. My guess is that it could be a local body approval at that time ( several years go )..Pls guide me if it is okay to go ahead with this land.

A.Dear client,

To ensure the legitimacy of the land's approval for development, you should request the seller or the property agent to provide documentation and evidence supporting the claimed DTP approval. Carefully review these documents and, if possible, seek assistance from a legal expert or consultant with expertise in real estate laws to understand the implications and validity of the approval.
It is crucial to conduct research on the relevant town planning and development authorities in the specific area where the land is located. You can directly contact these authorities or consult with legal representatives to inquire about the status of the approval and confirm its validity.
Obtain copies of land records and documents from the local revenue department or land registry office. This will help you verify the ownership status of the land and check for any existing encumbrances or disputes that might impact the property's value or development potential.
To make an informed decision, it is advisable to seek the services of a qualified real estate lawyer or consultant who specializes in property transactions within the area. They can conduct due diligence on the property, review the documentation, and provide you with expert advice on potential risks and benefits associated with the land purchase.
If possible, visit the site in person to assess its location, surroundings, and any other factors that may influence your decision. This on-site evaluation can provide valuable insights into the property's current condition and its alignment with your investment goals.
