If any under assessment in the self assessment, is detected at any stage, the regularization application shall be rejected, the amount shall be forfeited and enforcement action against the violation shall be taken.

The Structural Stability Certificate issued by an registered Structural Engineer in cases of Special Buildings, Group Developments and Multi-Storied Buildings in consultation with the competent Geo–Technical Engineer is a pre-requisite for filing the application seeking exemption under section 113-C of the Act.

No Objection Certificate and Compliance Certificate from the Directorate of Fire and Rescue Services for Commercial Special Buildings, all Multi-Storied Buildings and all public buildings is a prerequisite for filing the regularization application under section 113-C of the Act.

An affidavit sworn by the applicant in Rs.100/- non judicial stamp paper that planning permission issued for exemption under section 113-C of the Act will not confer any right on the applicant to obliterate acquisition proceedings and to compensation for the building so permitted contrary to the provisions contained in the said Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (Central Act I of 1894) or any other land Acquisition Laws.

Any application made by any person for the assessment of amount for exemption who does not have any right over the land or building shall be summarily rejected.

In cases where the construction has been made in violation of land use zone, the applicant cannot make any additional construction in future and has to give an undertaking to that effect.

Filing an application for exemption under these regulations will not in any way prevent the officials from taking action under any of the provisions of the Act, unless otherwise ordered so by the Competent authority.
