In a relief for tenants of cessed Mohamed Tajbhai chawl in Worli, the Bombay High Court has ruled that they are eligible to get 405 sq ft carpet area for their rehab flat. A division bench of Justices Sunil Shukre and Rajesh Patil, on October 23, said: “In our view there is no doubt that the Petitioners/Tenants are eligible to get total carpet area in rehab building of 300 Sq Ft + 105 Sq ft (35% compensatory fungible FSI).”
The HC was hearing a petition filed by the over 59 residents challenging the developer decision to provide them with rehab tenements of 351 sq ft carpet area. Oricon Properties Pvt Ltd’s is redeveloping the chawl under Section 33(7) of the Development Control and Promotion Regulations, (DCPR) 2034. The residents contended that they obtained information under the RTI and sought larger rehab flats, one parking space for every four rehab flats and increase in amenity open space. The civic chief had reduced the open space from 20% to 8%.
