MIDC SPA Department Services

Navigating MIDC’s Special Planning Authority Approvals with Clarity, Speed & Structural Precision

All construction on MIDC-allotted industrial plots must be approved by its Special Planning Authority (SPA) — a centralized regulatory body governing architectural control, structural compliance, fire safety integration, zoning, and completion certificates. Every step from blueprint to occupancy must align with the DC Rules and MIDC’s planning norms, enforced through the AUTODCR digital approval system.

At DharmaSetu Goldschmidt Advisory, we support clients across the full spectrum of MIDC-SPA approvals — including building plan sanctioning, CC/OC coordination, and post-construction compliances — ensuring speed, compliance, and zero ambiguity at each stage.

Our MIDC SPA Department Services

Combined Building Plan Approval

We assist in securing digital approval of architectural and structural drawings via MIDC’s AutoDCR system.

  • Prepare compliant building plans as per MIDC zoning and DC Rules
  • Coordinate document upload, fee calculations, and portal submissions
  • Address objections and compliance notings from SPA architects and engineers
  • Liaise with planning, fire, and environment cells for multi-departmental integration

Commencement Certificate (CC)

Before starting site work, MIDC requires official authorization through a Commencement Certificate.

  • Submit architect-certified soil, layout, and zoning compliance
  • Coordinate MIDC site inspection and structural verification
  • Address queries related to setbacks, FSI usage, and built-up ratios
  • Ensure legal start of construction with documented CC grant

Intimation of Plinth Completion (IPC)

Once plinth construction is complete, MIDC requires formal intimation.

  • Submit IPC request through registered architect on the AutoDCR portal
  • Ensure site matches sanctioned plan and foundation height approvals
  • Support MIDC engineer site visit and compliance report
  • Avoid mid-stage penalties by timely declaration and acknowledgment

Amendment in Building Plan

If construction design changes mid-project, an amendment must be approved.

  • Review and document deviations from the originally sanctioned plan
  • Prepare revised drawings, structural certificates, and usage statements
  • File amendment request via AutoDCR portal and track approvals
  • Manage approvals from planning, fire, and zoning cells as required

Revalidation of Building Plan Approval

Expired plans must be formally revalidated to continue construction.

  • Assess reason for delay and prepare justification note
  • Liaise with MIDC for timeline review and fee calculations
  • Re-upload or revalidate documents and engineering NOCs
  • Track fresh building plan validity grant

FSI / Fungible FSI Computation & Clarification

We help clients understand and optimize Floor Space Index (FSI) as per DC norms.

  • Verify basic and maximum permissible FSI per location and usage
  • Guide application of Fungible FSI for additional construction
  • Align coverage with height limits, open space, and marginal spaces
  • Coordinate FSI updates and corrections during planning stages

Built-Up Area Verification & Compliance

Built-up area declarations must align with usage and approvals.

  • Assist in declaration of total BUA across levels
  • Ensure BUA is aligned with fire norms and FAR usage
  • File accurate area breakups for architectural and legal submission
  • Support MIDC during inspection for area misuse or overrun

Occupancy Certificate (OC)

OC certifies that the building is legally fit for use and occupation.

  • Submit Building Completion Certificate (BCC) from architect
  • Liaise with MIDC’s planning, engineering, and fire departments
  • Assist with final inspections and compliance rectifications
  • Secure formal OC grant, enabling utility connections and full occupancy
