Understanding Vahivat (Vahiwat) in Indian Land RecordsPCMC to Publish Red-Zone Map Around Defence Establishments — Relief for 4,000 Property Owners Soon
The PCMC is set to release an official “red-zone” map next week, which will clearly demarcate areas around two sensitive defence establishments — the Ordnance Factory Dehu Road (ammunition depot) and the Dighi Magazine Depot — where construction and development will be prohibited under the Works of Defence Act, 1903.
What is the Red Zone and Why It Matters
Under the proposed plan:
- A 2,000-yard radius around the Dehu Road ordnance depot.
- A 1,200-yard radius around the Dighi Magazine Depot.
Inside these zones, construction and new development will be prohibited — a regulation meant to uphold security and safety around defence assets.
Who Will Be Affected
The red-zone designation is expected to directly impact around 4,000 properties — both residential and commercial — that currently fall within the buffer zones of these depots.
Localities likely to be affected include (but are not limited to) Talawade, Nigdi, Ravet, Chikhali, Dighi, Bhosari, Yamuna Nagar, Rupi Nagar, Vadmukhwadi, and Bopkhel, among others.
For many residents and property owners, the new map brings long-awaited clarity. With unclear boundaries until now, there has been persistent confusion and concern over legal construction permissions.
Why the Map Was Needed
The process to draw accurate red-zone boundaries began after the state’s land-records department conducted a survey, employing satellite imagery to map the zones. The exercise was completed recently, and PCMC has spent over ₹1.13 crore for land measurement and mapping for the Dehu Road and Dighi areas.
The updated map was submitted to PCMC on 31 July 2025, according to civic-body officials.
However, publication has been delayed because the map must first be vetted by the defence authorities to ensure that no sensitive installations are exposed publicly.
What This Means for Residents and Property Owners
Once released, the map will:
- Clearly inform which properties lie inside the red zone (where construction is prohibited) and which lie outside (eligible for development).
- Provide long-awaited clarity for home-buyers, developers, and existing residents — helping avoid legal disputes over building permissions.
- Help civic authorities regulate illegal or unauthorised constructions that have proliferated over the decades due to boundary ambiguity.
An official from PCMC’s Town Planning Department, Kishor Gokhale, stated that the map has already been shared with defence authorities and they expect to receive a response within “the next four to five days,” after which the map will be made public.

Maharashtra to Rope in Private Agencies for Faster Land Measurement
The Maharashtra government is getting ready to assign private, licensed organisations to help with land measurement prior to registration to speed up real estate transactions. Growing backlogs at taluka-level land records offices are anticipated to be addressed by this initiative, which is based on procedures already in place in other states.
Why the Move?
Currently, land measurement often takes over ten days, creating bottlenecks for citizens looking to register sale deeds. By involving trained private surveyors, the state aims to ease this pressure while keeping final validation and record entry under the official land records department.
How It Will Work
Private agencies will carry out measurements as per government guidelines.
Their reports will be submitted to the department for validation before being recorded in the official system.
The pilot phase is planned for Pune, Nashik, and Thane, followed by statewide expansion.
To strengthen the process, the government also plans to purchase 1,232 modern surveying instruments worth ₹220 crore.
A Larger Modernisation Drive
This action is consistent with the ongoing land governance reforms in Maharashtra. To address decades-old disparities in survey records, a statewide land measurement campaign is already in progress. The drive includes:
By September 30, 2025, village locations throughout the state will be mapped.
utilising cutting-edge technology like rovers, drones, and GIS.
For affordability, survey fees will be lowered to ₹200 per plot.
Within two years, a "survey before registry" requirement ought to be put into place to ensure accuracy and avoid disagreements.
Anticipated Advantages
- Faster Process: When it comes to sale deed registrations, citizens can anticipate shorter wait times.
- Transparency: The government retains ultimate authority, guaranteeing the accuracy of records.
- Decreased Disputes: Inconsistencies in boundaries will be addressed by modern mapping.
- Efficiency Boost: Technology-led surveying will support scalability for future needs.
NeoLiv Acquires 17.5 Acre Land Parcel in Khopoli for Premium Plotted Development
NeoLiv, the fund-led residential development platform, has made a significant advancement in its expansion by acquiring a 17.5-acre plot of land in Khopoli, Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). With a planned value of ₹150 crore, the project is a high-end plotted development that will provide buyers with a combination of contemporary living and natural surroundings.
A Strategic Location Advantage
The project, which is located in the Panvel–Khalapur–Khopoli corridor, benefits from strong connectivity and robust infrastructure growth. Khopoli is set to become a bustling residential centre thanks to the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport and the Mumbai Trans-Harbour Link (Atal Setu). The site is a promising option for both investors and homebuyers because of its close proximity to Imagicaa Theme Park, which enhances its lifestyle and recreational appeal.
Project Highlights
NeoLiv’s Khopoli development will span 0.36 million square feet (gross saleable area) and include a curated mix of residential plots, villas, and modern lifestyle amenities. A world-class clubhouse and expansive green landscapes are envisioned to create a community that resonates with today’s demand for open, sustainable, and aspirational living.
Backed by Expertise and Trust
NeoLiv, founded by Mohit Malhotra, former CEO of Godrej Properties, operates on a fund-led model supported by institutional investors and UHNIs through SEBI-registered AIFs. The developer has already delivered strong results with its earlier projects—Kundli-Sonipat Grand Park, which sold out 263 plots worth over ₹300 crore, and a luxury housing venture in Alibaug with an estimated ₹400 crore sales potential.
New Mahabaleshwar: A Rare Land Opportunity in a Growing Hill Station
The New Mahabaleshwar Hill Station Project is one of Maharashtra’s most exciting initiatives to develop tourism and boost the local economy. Spread across 235 villages in Satara, Jaoli, Patan, and Mahabaleshwar, this area lies in the ecologically rich Western Ghats, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The region is famous for its green forests, waterfalls, hills, and valleys, making it a top choice for leisure, adventure, and religious tourism.
The Maharashtra government is taking major steps to develop New Mahabaleshwar, including building roads, electricity, water supply, and public amenities. Plans also include housing, commercial areas, gardens, recreational zones, and institutional facilities, ensuring a well-planned, sustainable growth of the region. With the government promoting tourism through public-private partnerships, this area is set to see rapid development and high-value appreciation in the coming years.
Why Investing Here Makes Sense
- High Future Appreciation: Over time, land and property values will rise due to government-supported infrastructure and tourism initiatives.
- The Prime Location: It is appealing for vacation homes and resorts because it is close to major highways and has good access to urban centres.
- Eco-Friendly Development: Long-term value is added by balanced development, which guarantees the preservation of biodiversity and natural beauty.
- Various Investment Options: Land can be turned into vacation residences, resorts, or resale plots.
Investing in plots in this area today can be a rare opportunity for buyers to secure land in a promising and growing hill station before the region reaches its full potential.
Seize the opportunity now — New Mahabaleshwar is set to become one of Maharashtra’s most sought-after destinations for tourism and investment.
The Purandar International Airport project has been revised with land acquisition reduced from 7,000 acres to 3,000 acres. Farmers willing to give land can submit consent letters from August 25 within a 21-day window. In addition to receiving four times the market value in compensation, they will also get 10% of the land that was turned over back as developed plots in the future Aerocity. The airport's passenger and cargo facilities will remain part of this scaled-down plan, and the land acquisition process should be finished in the next six to eight months.
Key Takeaways:
Land acquisition cut by more than 50%, from 7,000 to 3,000 acres
Farmers can submit consent within a 21-day window starting August 25
Compensation includes 4x market value + 10% land returned as developed plots
The revised plan still supports passenger and cargo operations.
Land acquisition expected to be completed in 6–8 months
