KMC Eases House Completion Certificate Procedure

The Kolkata Municipal Corporation is making it easier for owners of newly-built houses to obtain a completion certification, setting up a single-window system so one can directly apply to the civic building department for the document instead of hopping from one section to another.

The building department will liaison with other departments of the civic body as well as departments of the state government whose approval is required for issuing the completion certificate.

At present, house owners or architects hired by them visit the relevant departments and obtain no-objection certificates (NOC) before applying to the civic building department for the completion certificate (CC).

So far the completion certificate has been issued for only two buildings through the single-window system. Officials of the civic body said they are still considering the possible challenges and hitches of converting to the new system, which will be entirely online, where the various government departments will upload their NOCs.

Among the departments whose approval is needed are the Water Supply and Drainage Departments of KMC, which give their NOCs after verifying whether the existing network of water supply and drainage will be able to serve the new building

All non-residential buildings and residential buildings with six or more floors need a NOC from the fire department. The NOC from the chief electrical inspector is required for any building with an elevator. Large projects with an area of more than 20,000 sq mtr need a NOC from the West Bengal Pollution Control Board.
