The Town and Country Planning Department has cancelled the licence given for the development of an IT Park here.

The cancellation letter issued by K Makrand Pandurang, Director, Town and Country Planning, says that since the allottee failed to comply with the conditions, the licence stands cancelled. Despite notification of irregularities found in the application submitted for renewal of the licence, the allottee did not rectify the deficiencies in the given time period and no development works had been undertaken even after lapse of more than four years of grant of the licence. The licence was granted to Nuchem Machine Tools Ltd in 2008 for setting up of an IT Park over 8.306 acres in Sector-5 here.

”One of the conditions was that the licensee shall complete at least 30 per cent of the area within three years, failing which he or she will have to deposit the conversion charges and licence fee at the commercial rate of the plot,” states the letter.

It adds that since the licence was initially valid up to March 27, 2010, the request of the licensee for renewal submitted subsequently was examined and deficiencies detected were conveyed to the allottee vide memo dated March 25, 2010, and August 6, 2012. An opportunity of personal hearing was also given on October 15, 2012, but the licensee failed to rectify the deficiencies and accordingly, vide the office memo issued in February 2013, the renewal application was rejected.

“Since the rejection order dated February 12, 2013, was in order and cannot be reviewed, hence the licence stands cancelled,” says the letter issued on August 20 this year.

“The investors in the proposed park if any will have to communicate with the department, as the builder has been left with no authority now after cancellation of the licence,” said DTP Sanjiv Maan.
