DTCP approval refers to the entire layout of the open plot that is approved by the state. Developers and builders have to obtain this approval to ensure that their work is carried out according to the rules and regulations of DTCP.

All layout plans have to be approved and agreed upon by DTCP before starting the construction process on the open plots. This is mandatory for all states and they must have such a separate government body.

This blog will elaborate on the details as to why there are two distinct regulatory authorities overlooking the same field (pun, intended).

Let’s begin with knowing what they actually mean – DTCP stands for Directorate of Town and Country Planning, and HMDA stands for Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority.
