Vastu house plans for Rishikesh plots

Building a house in Rishikesh: what to know

Map approval
The Mussoorie Dehradun Development Authority (MDDA), which has covered Rishikesh tehsil since 2019 — the state eASE-App portal, with AutoDCR automatic drawing scrutiny. Drawings must come from an architect-planner, draftsman or engineer on MDDA's empanelled lists.
Plot sizes
Plots are quoted in square yards and sq ft (1 sq yd = 9 sq ft). Listings seen in October 2026 included 100 sq yd plots in Shyampur and Gumaniwala, 110 sq yd on Haridwar Road and 2,250 sq ft on Veerbhadra Road.
Climate
Composite. Rishikesh falls in the Composite zone of BEE's climate map, as Dehradun does in BEE's table of cities: Dehradun district gets about 2,070 mm of rain a year, about 87% of it from June to September, so plan deep overhangs, sized roof drains and a raised plinth, with living rooms facing south for the winter sun.
Earthquake zone
Seismic Zone IV. Rishikesh is not in IS 1893's table of towns. BMTPC's Vulnerability Atlas of India (2019) puts all of Dehradun district, which includes Rishikesh, in Zone IV. BIS withdrew its 2025 seismic map in March 2026, so the IS 1893:2016 zones still apply.
Ground and water
The Ganga enters Dehradun district at Rishikesh, where the Chandrabhaga river joins it, so plots near either river or a seasonal stream need their flood level checked.
Where people build
Ganga Nagar, Avas Vikas, Shyampur, Gumaniwala, IDPL Colony.
Good to know
On 16 February 2026 MDDA sealed four buildings put up without approval in Rishikesh, three in Nirmal Bagh and one near Old Chungi on Haridwar Road.

Who approves house plans in Rishikesh?

The Mussoorie Dehradun Development Authority (MDDA), which has covered Rishikesh tehsil since 2019, through the state eASE-App portal, with AutoDCR automatic drawing scrutiny. Drawings must come from an architect-planner, draftsman or engineer on MDDA's empanelled lists. We prepare the drawings it asks for and guide you through the approval.

Which plot sizes are common in Rishikesh?

Plots are quoted in square yards and sq ft (1 sq yd = 9 sq ft). Listings seen in October 2026 included 100 sq yd plots in Shyampur and Gumaniwala, 110 sq yd on Haridwar Road and 2,250 sq ft on Veerbhadra Road. We draw plans for any plot size, including odd shapes.

Which earthquake zone is Rishikesh in, and does it change the design?

Seismic Zone IV. Rishikesh is not in IS 1893's table of towns. BMTPC's Vulnerability Atlas of India (2019) puts all of Dehradun district, which includes Rishikesh, in Zone IV. BIS withdrew its 2025 seismic map in March 2026, so the IS 1893:2016 zones still apply. We design the structure to IS 1893 for this zone: column sizes, steel and foundations are calculated, not guessed.

What should I know about the ground before building in Rishikesh?

The Ganga enters Dehradun district at Rishikesh, where the Chandrabhaga river joins it, so plots near either river or a seasonal stream need their flood level checked. We size the foundation after a soil check.

Do you make "ghar ka naksha" (house plans) for Rishikesh?

Yes. "ghar ka naksha" is how many people in Rishikesh write "house plan" in Hindi. We draw the complete set: floor plans, 3D elevation, and structural, electrical and plumbing drawings.

Can you make a vastu ghar ka naksha for my plot in Rishikesh?

Yes. We place the kitchen, master bedroom, puja room, toilets and entrance as vastu suggests wherever your Rishikesh plot allows, and tell you plainly where it cannot. It is all done online, so you can share the plot details on WhatsApp.
