Citizens now have the ability to check land use status through the Telangana State Building Permission Approval and Self Certification System (TS-bPASS) under the Land Use Information service and plan accordingly.
On February 15, the service was formally launched. The service is currently being expanded to survey numbers within the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) and the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA).
Before making any investment or starting a residential or commercial project, most people look into the land use pattern. Occasionally, a few developers or companies mislead people by claiming that all approvals have been obtained for their layout despite the lands being classified as agricultural or conservation zones.
Citizens can check the survey number details and land use pattern, including residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, recreational and conservation zones through the TS-bPASS Land Use Information service.
The plan was to assist citizens in determining the land use pattern and obtaining the necessary certificates. Citizens can check the survey numbers falling under residential or commercial zones before executing work, according to a senior official from TS-bPASS.
Citizens who want to check the land use pattern of a specific survey number must apply online at lui.tsbpass.telangana.gov.in. They must provide personal information, survey numbers, village, municipality, and so on, as well as make payment online.

Citizens may request information on up to five survey numbers in each application. According to the official, a payment of Rs.500 would be required in addition to the Rs.100 processing fee for each survey number detail.
The planning officer conducts a thorough inspection soon after an application is filed, and the details are shared with the applicants within 21 days. The information provided by the service only certifies the land use pattern for the applicants. They will have to apply separately for building plan approval permission based on the category.
“After examining the land use information service for a few months, it will later be extended to Directorate of Town and Country Planning (DTCP) limits under Phase II,” the official said.
Citizens are currently seeking information about land use patterns through the Development Permission Management System (DPMS). Since the service’s inception in 2016, approximately 40,000 applications have been submitted through the system.
Officials have now introduced Land Use Information service under TS-bPASS to bring all building and layout related services under one umbrella. The DPMS option will almost certainly be eliminated once the land use information service is stabilised.
