Common questions

Society redevelopment FAQs

What is society redevelopment?

Society redevelopment is the process where a housing society's old building is demolished and rebuilt, usually by a developer, using the additional FSI (floor space index) available under Mumbai's DCPR 2034 rules. In exchange, existing members typically receive a larger new flat, a corpus fund, and rent for temporary accommodation during construction.

What is the Section 79A process for redevelopment in Maharashtra?

Section 79A of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act lays down government directives that housing societies must follow for redevelopment: appointing a project management consultant, preparing a feasibility report, inviting tenders from developers, and selecting a developer in a special general body meeting with the required member consent — usually in the presence of a registrar's representative. Read our full 79A guide.

How much extra carpet area do members get in Mumbai redevelopment?

There is no fixed rule. The extra carpet area depends on the plot size, location, road width, available FSI and TDR under DCPR 2034, and market rates in the locality. Offers in Mumbai commonly range from around 15% to 40% additional carpet area — but every society should verify what its own plot can support with our FSI calculator before comparing developer offers.

What is a corpus fund in redevelopment?

A corpus fund is a lump-sum amount a developer pays to the society or to individual members as part of a redevelopment deal. It is meant to offset the higher maintenance and outgoings of the new building so that existing members are not financially burdened after redevelopment.

Do society members have to pay anything for redevelopment?

In a typical builder-led redevelopment in Mumbai, members do not pay for construction. The developer funds construction, pays temporary rent, and offers a corpus — recovering costs by selling the additional flats created from the extra FSI. Members may choose to pay only if they want to buy extra area beyond what is offered free.

How long does society redevelopment take in Mumbai?

From the first feasibility study to possession of new flats, society redevelopment in Mumbai commonly takes 3 to 5 years. Timelines depend on how quickly the society completes the 79A tender process, approvals such as IOD and CC, the size of the project, and the developer's execution capability.
