How to Calculate FSI in Pune: 3 Steps
Enter four inputs: get your full buildable envelope in seconds. Every output traces back to a clause in UDCPR 2020.
Enter your plot dimensions
Road width, plot width, and plot depth in feet or metres. Select your area type (congested or non-congested) and land use (residential or commercial).
Calculator looks up UDCPR 2020 tables
Your area type, plot size and road width determine which FSI row applies. Dual-criteria rule: FSI = min(plot-area-based, road-width-based value).

Maximum FSI, total built-up area, mandatory setbacks (Table 6D), floor count, coverage ratio, and Premium FSI uplift available for your road width.

All parameters derived directly from UDCPR 2020 and the PMC TOD GR, with source citations on every rule.
FSI options
All permitted FSI values for your area type and road width. Shows basic FSI (Table 6A or 6G) and any Premium FSI or TDR headroom available for your plot.

Total BUA (plot area × FSI), net footprint, floor count, and coverage ratio for every FSI option, with open space shown separately.
Setbacks
Table 6D (road-width-based front + side margins) for lower buildings. H/5 formula (side = rear = H/5, max 12 m) for buildings above the Table 6D height limit.
Premium FSI uplift
Pay 35% of ASR land rate to PMC for additional FSI. Up to +0.50× basic FSI on roads 9 m and above. TDR (DRC) can add up to +1.40× on wide roads. Maximum total FSI: 3.00 (PMC).
Built on 3 Regulations
Every number the calculator outputs traces back to a specific clause in a published regulation, updated to the most recent amendment.
- UDCPR 2020
Maharashtra · State-Wide Development Rules
Unified Development Control and Promotion Regulations 2020. Defines FSI tables (6A congested, 6G non-congested), setback tables (6B–6D), H/5 formula, TDR provisions (Ch. 11), and height caps.
Currently in force - PMC TOD GR
PMC · 30 June 2020
PMC Transit-Oriented Development Government Resolution. Applies within 500 m of Pune Metro stations. Provides FSI up to 4.00 (Table 24.2.3) on plots ≥1000 sqm, replacing standard UDCPR FSI.
- PMRDA
Pune Metropolitan Region Dev. Authority
Governs plots in the outer metropolitan ring (Hinjewadi, Wagholi, Khed, Maval, Mulshi). Same UDCPR 2020 framework, but lower Premium FSI headroom and lower TDR ceilings than PMC.
FSI Calculator FAQ: Pune, PMC & UDCPR 2020 Building Rules
Common questions about FSI, setbacks, and building regulations in Pune.
How do I calculate FSI for my plot in Pune?
Enter your plot dimensions, road width, and area type (congested or non-congested) into the calculator. For non-congested plots, basic FSI is a flat 1.10 regardless of road width under UDCPR 2020 Table 6G. For congested plots (gaothans, peth areas), basic FSI is 1.50 on roads below 9 m and 2.00 on roads 9 m and above (Table 6A). Multiply plot area by FSI to get your maximum built-up area.
How many floors can I build on a 30×40 ft plot in Pune?
On a 30×40 ft plot (~111 sq m) on a 9 m road in a non-congested PMC area, basic FSI is 1.10, giving 122 sq m BUA. After setbacks (Table 6D: front 1.5 m, sides 1.5 m), you typically fit G+2 floors. On a 40×60 ft plot (~223 sq m) on a 12 m road with premium FSI (1.10+0.50), you can reach G+5 to G+6 depending on height caps. Use the calculator to see precise floor count and BUA.
What is the difference between congested and non-congested area in Pune?
Congested areas are earmarked on the PMC Development Plan map: typically gaothans, the old city core, and peth localities. Non-congested areas cover all other developable zones including suburban layouts. Congested plots use Table 6A for FSI (basic 1.50–2.00), while non-congested plots use Table 6G (flat basic FSI 1.10 with higher premium and TDR headroom on wide roads). Setback rules also differ significantly between the two.
What is the maximum FSI in Pune?
The maximum FSI under standard UDCPR 2020 is 3.00, achievable on roads of 30 m and above in PMC jurisdiction using the full stack: basic FSI (1.10) + Premium FSI (0.50) + TDR (1.40). In TOD zones within 500 m of a Pune Metro station, the maximum rises to 4.00 for plots above 2000 sq m on roads 24 m and wider. PMRDA plots have a lower maximum of 2.50.
What is Premium FSI in Pune and how much does it cost?
Premium FSI is additional FSI above the basic entitlement, purchased by paying 35% of the ASR (Annual Statement of Rates) land rate to PMC (Reg 6.3 Note viii). It is only available on roads 9 m and above in non-congested areas. Up to 0.50 additional FSI can be unlocked in PMC. The cost depends on the ASR land rate, which varies by locality. A plot in Baner or Koregaon Park will cost more than a peripheral location. PMRDA has a lower premium rate.
What is the H/5 setback rule in Pune?
The H/5 rule (Regulation 6.2.3 of UDCPR 2020) applies to buildings exceeding the height limit specified in Table 6D for their road-width band. Side and rear margins must each equal building height divided by 5, with a maximum of 12 m. This is a continuous formula, the setback grows proportionally with every additional metre of height. The front setback remains fixed at the Table 6D value regardless of building height.
