Intimation of Disapproval (IOD)

This article deals with the IOD or I. O. D. permission issued by the Municipal Authorities for Redevelopment of Buildings.

What is an Intimation of Disapproval?

An intimation of Disapproval is a letter issued by the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) also known as the Brihanmumbai Mahanagarpalika issued to a Builder / Developer of a Property who proposes to undertake some construction work on an existing or new building.
