The main problem in land and real estate in Delhi is of black money portion in sale purchase and non implementation of MCD laws. I would like to suggest that we should reduce the stamp duty for registration as that will reduce the role of black money. And for extra coverage we should impose heavy extra taxes on the properties having excess coverage. more

Our main problems are a result of non compliance of existing procedures in place. The solution too therefore lies there only. A comprehensive review of current procedures needs to be undertaken. This will help us understand the gaps existing in the current set of rules, which then can be overcome by improving the defined processes. One example will help us understand the concept better. Whenever a new construction activity is undertaken, say construction of a residential house. The builder is bound to display the sanctioned plan at site. One can ask for its display, if the same is not done. Rules are clear on what maximum timings the construction activity can be undertaken during the day. Any deviation can be reported to the police & the issue can be redressed. With regard to generation of black money, we need to redefine the circle rates of respective areas, after ascertaining the going rates for the property in given area. This has to be done at defined periodicity. Once the circle rates for the area are realistically refined, the issue of black money can be drastically reduced. Stamp duty on real estate transfer should be simultaneously brought down too. This will take away the incentive of reduced pricing of property at the time of transfer. Real estate is the biggest generator of black money as well as mechanism of parking thereof. A single window permission process which is time bound, will go a long way in reducing many issues. If the deptt concerned are forced to adhere to timelines for response to various applications, the menace of corruption will be addressed to a large extent. Simplification of regulatory processes therefore is a major step to overcome corrupt practices. We are sometimes unknowingly contributors to many issues faced by us. For example, we hesitate to speak whenever we see rules being flouted, e.g., encroachment of public land/ open areas in our neighbourhood. RWAs too avoid getting into controversies for danger of displeasing its own members. We often sight good neighborly relations as an excuse, forgetting that it is our neighbourhood only who is in breach of law to our disadvantage. more
