- The BMC Standing Committee deferred the amnesty proposal to grant occupation certificates for buildings constructed before 2016.
- This initiative aims to assist around 1.2 million residents across nearly 25,000 housing societies in Mumbai.
- Conditions such as the 80 sq metre carpet area limit and requirement of a valid commencement certificate are under reassessment.
- Further stakeholder discussions will take place to simplify the framework before proceeding with the scheme.
