MCD Approves Up to 75% Rebate on Regularisation Charges Under PM-UDAY Scheme
The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has approved up to a 75% rebate on four regularisation charges for houses in 1,511 unauthorised colonies under the PM-UDAY scheme. This rebate applies to applicants completing the process by October 31, 2026, or any extended deadline.

The MCD and Delhi government are promoting awareness and streamlining the regularisation process.
