Jaipur Air Funnel Zones
AAI

Overview
Jaipur airport height restriction zones, mapped under AAI's Colour Coded Zoning Map (CCZM), regulate permissible building heights across a 20-km radius from Sanganer airport. The governing rules are the Ministry of Civil Aviation Height Restrictions Rules 2015 (G.S.R. 751(E)), which make an AAI NOC via NOCAS mandatory before any construction begins within this radius. Jaipur carries the tightest height threshold among comparable Indian cities: at 9 km from the airport, buildings are capped at just 19.6 m.

If a broker cannot produce the CCZM grid reference for the specific survey number being evaluated in Sanganer or Jagatpura, verify independently on NOCAS and confirm the Permissible Top Elevation for that grid before proceeding further.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the height restrictions near Jaipur airport?
Under G.S.R. 751(E) and AAI's CCZM for Jaipur, the cap starts at 10 m within 200 m of the boundary, rises to 30 m at 450-500 m, and then follows CCZM colour grid values across the full 20-km restricted radius.
Do I need an AAI NOC to buy a plot near Jaipur airport?
Yes. Any construction within 20 km of Jaipur airport's Aerodrome Reference Point requires an NOC from AAI via NOCAS before work starts. There are no exceptions based on plot size, structure type, or existing JDA approval status.
Which areas in Jaipur fall under airport height restriction zones?
Sanganer, Jagatpura, and Siddharth Nagar are within the most restricted zones. In Jaipur, the height threshold stays constrained up to 15 km from the airport, so most of south Jaipur falls under AAI NOCAS rules and CCZM limits.
What is the CCZM for Jaipur airport and how do I read it?
AAI's Colour Coded Zoning Map for Jaipur is available on NOCAS at nocas2.aai.aero. Locate your plot's grid, match the colour to the Permissible Top Elevation, then subtract site elevation to get the maximum permitted AGL height.
Can I build a multi-storey structure in Jagatpura near the airport?
Practically, no. Much of Jagatpura falls within AAI obstacle limitation surfaces that impose a G+3 practical ceiling. Existing buildings in Jagatpura have faced compliance scrutiny, and AAI NOC rejections are common without prior CCZM grid verification.
What is the maximum building height within 200 metres of Jaipur airport?
The Rajasthan government has fixed a cap of 10 metres for any structure within 200 metres of the Jaipur airport boundary. This applies regardless of JDA zone classification, approved layout status, or any previously issued building permission.
What happens if a building violates AAI height restrictions near Jaipur?
Violations under the Aircraft Act can result in Occupancy Certificate denial, building permission cancellation, and demolition orders. Three high-rise structures near Sanganer were stalled by state government intervention specifically on these aviation safety grounds.
How do I check if a plot falls in the Jaipur air funnel zone?
Download the Jaipur CCZM from NOCAS at nocas2.aai.aero, enter your plot's GPS coordinates, and check the grid colour. A red grid means mandatory AAI NOC. Always verify CCZM placement before finalising any land purchase near the airport.
