Check which competent authority governs the particular plot before planning construction.
Why jurisdiction matters
Land near Kharar and Mohali can fall under different planning authorities. Confirm the designated authority for the exact site instead of assuming all parcels follow the same rules.
Check GMADA guidance
GMADA publishes building plan approval guidance, including self-certification and sanction routes for qualifying cases. Check current applicability and timelines.
Documents to request
Seek approved site and building plans, change-of-land-use permissions where required, completion/occupation paperwork where applicable, road access and utility status.
Get a qualified review
Before signing a construction contract, ask a registered architect and qualified legal professional to review drawings and land records.
