8. UTILIZATION OF SLUM T.D.R. : Difference in Total Permissible F.S.I. allowed for S.R.S. as per the said Regulations and F.S.I. actually utilized in the Slum Rehabilitation Scheme, due to constraints of different provisions of DCPR or otherwise, shall be converted into SLUM T.D.R. and shall be utilizable in any land use zone as per the provisions in the UDCPR or DCPR of the concerned Planning Authority, subject to following manner and restrictions prescribed herein below :
i. The Development Rights Certificate (D.R.C.) shall be recommended by the C.E.O., S.R.A. and the Concerned Authority shall issue concerned D.R.C. to the developer within a period of one month from the receipt of the proposal. The F.S.I. credit in square meters of built up area shall be stated in the D.R.C. in figures and in words, along with details of the place from where T.D.R. is generated; and where it may be utilized. ii. The built up area for grant of D.R.C. shall be equal to the built-up area of the sanctioned slum rehabilitation scheme, allowed to be taken in the form of Slum T.D.R. iii. Where a buildable amenity on the reserved plot for which slum rehabilitation scheme is sanctioned, is handed over, free of cost to the concerned Authority, the concerned Authority may grant a further T.D.R. on account of construction of the said amenity, in accordance with the provisions in the UDCPR in this regard. iv. It shall be permissible to utilize the Slum T.D.R. in any land use zone as per given formula below, subject to restrictions as mentioned in clause 5 & 6 herein above. Formula ; X = (Rg / Rr) x Y Where, X = permissible utilization of T.D.R. / D.R. in Sq.m. on receiving plot. Rg = rate for land in Rs. per Sq.m. as per A.S.R. of generating plots in generating year. Rr = rate for land in Rs. per Sq.m. as per A.S.R. of receiving plot in generating year. Y = T.D.R. debited from D.R.C. in Sq.m.
v. The D.R.C. may be used on one or more plots of land, whether vacant or already developed, by erection of additional floors, or in any other manner consistent with UDCPR or DCPR of concerned Planning Authority, as the case may be, but not so as to exceed the F.S.I. prescribed herein, subject to the condition that when T.D.R. is to be utilized by erection of additional floors, it shall only be allowed to the extent and after satisfying the structural stability, bearing capacity of existing structure.
9. The site of S.R.S. may be developed with layout of buildings.
