Do not purchase any plot from any layouts, not approved by VMRDA. Final Layouts approved by VMRDA with L.P.No. and authentication of VMRDA are valid.
Do not purchase a plot in tentative layouts with BLP No. since it is only a provisional layout. B.L.P.No. is only provisional permission to develop infrastructure but not a permission to sell the plots. B.L.P. No. can be cancelled if infrastructure is not developed by the seller.
Final layout plan means the following infrastructural facilities should be available on ground.
WBM roads
Pucca Drains
Avenue plantation
Street Lighting
Water supply arrangements
Provision of public open place.
After verification of the above facilities and also confirm from VMRDA whether L.P. is given or not.

is also a long drawn process.
