The buildings that came up on the 245-acre land on the date of preliminary notification before August 23, 2022 will be regularised. Owners have been asked to submit applications to BBMP’s help desk from November 14.

The three-member committee appointed by the Supreme Court to oversee the formation of the layout believes 20,000 sites can be formed in the new layout. Roughly, 5,000 buildings that already exist in the layout have been regularised so far.
