Haryana Delays Key Building Code Provisions Pending System Finalization
The Haryana Government has postponed the implementation of several provisions of the amended Haryana Building Code-2017 until an online portal is developed, architects are empanelled for third-party certification, and rates for purchasable floor area ratio (FAR) are finalized. Occupation certificates for low-risk buildings will require self-certification, while high-risk buildings will need third-party certification after these systems are in place. The government also clarified that purchasable FAR beyond base limits will be allowed only after applicable fees are fixed, and unauthorized use during the transition will be considered non-compoundable.
