Explanation :-
(a) In case of different land rates area applicable to different parts of the URC, weighted average of all the applicable rates shall be taken for calculating the Average land rate and basic ratio.
(b) The land rate and the rate of construction for calculation of the basic ratio shall be taken for the year in which the URS is approved by the competent authority and shall remain unchanged during the entire project cycle of the URS. FSI shall be calculated over the gross area of the URC, deducting area falling in CRZ and Forest areas if any. However, if the area in CRZ-II is upto 25% of the URC then the FSI shall be allowed to be used in non CRZ area. However no FSI shall be allowed for the area from CRZ-1. Out of the construction area allowed as per Global FSI, FSI that cannot be actually utilized in URC, due to constraints imposed by different provisions of UDCPR, or otherwise, shall be converted into Urban Renewal TDR (URT) which shall be utilisable on a receiving plot. (1)
ii) The URT may be released by the Commissioner in stages to be decided by him but URT released at any point of time shall never exceed construction done in URC with respect to buildings where Occupation Certificates have been granted and 50% of construction done in URC with respect to buildings where Occupation Certificates are not granted.
iii) The FSI for an Urban Renewal Scheme in CRZ area shall be governed by the MoEF Notifications issued from time to time, and the same shall be taken into account while computing permissible FSI as per Clause (i) above.

Plot area, considered after deducting the area of URC falling in CRZ / Forest area and area under unbuildable reservations, etc. shall be primarily used for rehabilitation of existing occupants and development of buildable reservations and public amenities with required FSI. After the said development, if there are any eligible occupants left who could not be rehabilitated due to inability to construct the requisite area for rehabilitation and relocation, owing to constraints imposed by UDCPR, shall be rehabilitated in any nearby URS or in the PAP tenements available with the Corporation; as per the policy guidelines decided by the Corporation.
iv) If after construction of rehabilitation tenements and other areas of entitlement as per the provisions of this Regulation, there is still some building potential left as per the ceiling of 4.0 FSI, construction can be done for free sale, either in independent buildings, or on sub- plots or in composite buildings or in undivided plots along with rehabilitation component.
v) When the FSI available in URC in case less than 4.0 then 50 % of the difference in FSI shall be constructed in the form of EWS / LIG tenements and shall be handed over to the Commissioner. Commissioner may use these tenements preferably for transit accommodation, PAP tenements or staff quarters. However if tenements are not needed for above purpose then Municipal Commissioner shall after realisation of proceeds from disposal of these tenements, deposit such proceeds in Shelter Fund setup under this Regulation.
