Punjab Government Unveils Major Housing Scheme Reforms in 2026 Gazette Amendment
The Punjab government has introduced sweeping regulatory changes through the Punjab Gazette Amendment 2026 to overhaul housing schemes. Key reforms include a new Low-Cost Housing category with relaxed planning standards, a mandatory centralized digital approval system to combat corruption and delays, and a strict ownership restriction requiring any project with more than five owners/entities to be structured as a company or cooperative society. These rules are tiered based on land size, with stricter compliance for larger developments, aiming to enhance transparency, protect buyers, and encourage organized sector growth.
Stamp Duty Waived for Merger of Cooperative Societies with Private Developers
In a move to expedite development approvals such as those from the LDA, the Punjab Government has waived stamp-duty fees for the merger of cooperative housing societies with private developers. This incentive is expected to facilitate smoother project execution and faster map approvals for existing societies.
