Now builders will have to pay 40% premium on market value of additional FSI, which they will get in lieu of creating a public parking lot.
State government came out with a policy of creating giving additional FSI to builders in lieu of creating parking lots in 2009. The policy was severely criticized by town planners as it created additional pressure on civic amenities in already congested area.
