Premium FAR
Building regulation
In one line
Extra floor area bought from the government for a fee.
Several states let a developer purchase FAR above the base entitlement. It is worth buying only if the height limit leaves room to build the extra area — floor area you cannot physically stack is floor area you have paid for and cannot use.
Work with it
Permissible floor area, coverage and height for your plot — straight from the HP slabs.
