Building a house in Siliguri: what to know

Map approval
The Siliguri Municipal Corporation (SMC), under the West Bengal Municipal Building Rules 2007, once the Siliguri Jalpaiguri Development Authority (SJDA) has cleared the land use — West Bengal's single-window Online Building Plan Approval System (OBPAS), which covers every municipal body in the state except Kolkata and Howrah. Houses of up to parking + 3 storeys with no more than 5 flats are filed at the SMC borough office, larger buildings at the building cell in the head office. The SJDA land use compatibility certificate (LUCC) and sanctioned site plan come first, applied for online, and the owner adds the deed, chain deeds, mutation certificate and tax receipts.
Plot sizes
Plots are measured in katha (cottah): 1 katha = 720 sq ft = 16 chhatak, and 1 bigha = 20 katha (14,400 sq ft). Siliguri listings seen in October 2026 include plots of 1,440 sq ft (2 katha) in Champasari, 2,160 sq ft (3 katha) at Shiv Mandir and Ranidanga, and 2,880–3,600 sq ft at Fulbari and Salbari.
Climate
Warm-humid. Siliguri falls in the Warm-humid zone of BEE's climate map: cross-ventilation comes first, with deep overhangs and a roof built to shed monsoon rain.
Earthquake zone
Seismic Zone V. Siliguri is not in IS 1893's table of towns, and its 47 wards lie in two districts. BMTPC's Vulnerability Atlas of India (2019) puts Darjeeling district, which holds 33 of them, wholly in Zone IV, and Jalpaiguri district (by its 2011 census boundary), which holds the other 14, partly in Zone IV (76.3%) and partly in Zone V (23.7%); we design to Zone V, the stricter of the two. BIS withdrew its 2025 seismic map in March 2026, so the IS 1893:2016 zones still apply.
Where people build
Subhas Pally, Punjabi Para, Khalpara, Champasari.
Good to know
On 2 August 2026 the state's urban development minister, Agnimitra Paul, said illegal construction in the Siliguri Municipal Corporation and the Darjeeling hill municipalities would not be tolerated: a committee is to list illegal buildings, which face demolition or heavy fines (All India Radio News).

Who approves house plans in Siliguri?

The Siliguri Municipal Corporation (SMC), under the West Bengal Municipal Building Rules 2007, once the Siliguri Jalpaiguri Development Authority (SJDA) has cleared the land use, through West Bengal's single-window Online Building Plan Approval System (OBPAS), which covers every municipal body in the state except Kolkata and Howrah. Houses of up to parking + 3 storeys with no more than 5 flats are filed at the SMC borough office, larger buildings at the building cell in the head office. The SJDA land use compatibility certificate (LUCC) and sanctioned site plan come first, applied for online, and the owner adds the deed, chain deeds, mutation certificate and tax receipts. We prepare the drawings it asks for and guide you through the approval.

Plots are measured in katha (cottah): 1 katha = 720 sq ft = 16 chhatak, and 1 bigha = 20 katha (14,400 sq ft).

We draw plans for any plot size, including odd shapes.

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

Seismic Zone V. Siliguri is not in IS 1893's table of towns, and its 47 wards lie in two districts. BMTPC's Vulnerability Atlas of India (2019) puts Darjeeling district, which holds 33 of them, wholly in Zone IV, and Jalpaiguri district (by its 2011 census boundary), which holds the other 14, partly in Zone IV (76.3%) and partly in Zone V (23.7%); we design to Zone V, the stricter of the two. 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.

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