**Hyderabad, [Date of Publication]** – The Telangana government has launched a toll-free call centre to assist citizens applying for the Layout Regularisation Scheme (LRS). Residents can dial 1800 599 8838 to receive guidance and obtain a provisional fee estimate for their land, provided it doesn’t fall within prohibited areas or within 200 meters of a water body.
The call centre, established at the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA), aims to streamline the application process. Applicants who pay their LRS fees by March 31st will receive a 25% discount. The pro-rata open space charge is set at 14% of the plot value.
HMDA assures applicants of a 10-day processing time for applications following payment. The authority urges all eligible plot owners to pay before the March 31st deadline to take advantage of the discount. In the event of application rejection, HMDA will refund 90% of the paid amount, deducting 10% for processing charges.
