NOC mandatory for owners of LDA plots before selling

Owners of plots in the Lahore Development Authority (LDA) housing schemes will have to obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from LDA as a mandatory condition before selling their plots. The NOC shall be valid for transferring a plot for a period of one year since the date of its issue, disclosed a LDA's spokesperson here on Saturday. On the directives of LDA Director General Ahad Khan Cheema, LDA has notified a revised 'Standard Operating Procedure' for issuance of NOC for plots in LDA Schemes.
Applications seeking NOC, along with attested copies of transfer letter/ownership document(s) issued in the name of the owner, computerised national identity card, completion certificate (if available) otherwise proof of valid building plan and application for issuance of demand notice for NOC will be submitted at One Window Cell of LDA.
The Assistant Director of the concerned directorate will receive the application at the One-Window. After preliminary scrutiny, then the application will be referred to the Assistance Director of the Revenue Wing at the One-Window who will issue the challan to the applicant for the process fee. The challan form shall also include a disclaimer that in case of discovery of any issue/problem in the ownership, the amount deposited as process fee shall be forfeited.
