Building a House in Bengaluru? Here’s What BBMP Bylaws Say
If you’re planning to build your dream home in Bengaluru, understanding the BBMP (Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike) building bylaws is absolutely essential. From plot size requirements to setbacks and Floor Area Ratio (FAR), these regulations can significantly impact your building design and approval timeline.
In this post, we’ll simplify what the BBMP bylaws mean for residential construction—and how Sribha Infra Build makes the entire plan approval process hassle-free with our in-house architect and structural engineer, at no extra cost*.
What Are BBMP Building Bylaws?
BBMP building bylaws are a set of rules and standards laid down by the municipal authority in Bengaluru to ensure safe, organized, and sustainable development. These guidelines govern:
- Minimum plot size
- Building setbacks
- Height restrictions
- FAR (Floor Area Ratio)
- Parking requirements
- Zoning regulations
Adhering to these bylaws is mandatory to get your building plan sanctioned and avoid legal issues later.
Key BBMP Guidelines for Residential Construction
- Minimum Plot Size
- For independent houses: 30×40 sq ft (1,200 sq ft) is the most common minimum.
- Larger homes or apartments may require bigger plots based on zoning.
- Setback Requirements
- These are open spaces left around the building.
- Setback varies based on plot size and number of floors.
- For example, for a 30×40 site with G+1 floors, typical setbacks may be:
- Front: 1.5m
- Rear: 1.0m
- Side: 0.75m – 1.0m
- For example, for a 30×40 site with G+1 floors, typical setbacks may be:
- FAR (Floor Area Ratio)
- FAR determines how much you can build based on your plot area.
- Example: On a 1,200 sq ft plot, if FAR is 1.75, you can build up to 2,100 sq ft of floor area.
- Height Restrictions
- Max building height is usually restricted based on street width and zoning.
- Most residential zones allow up to G+3 or G+4, depending on the road width.
- Parking Norms
- One car park is mandatory for every dwelling unit above 50 sq meters.
- Basement or stilt parking may be needed in some zones.
