The Maharashtra cabinet on Wednesday, November 29, gave a nod to 50% reduction in the transfer fee payable after the sale of a flat in the Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA) scheme from INR 1 lakh to INR 50,000.
In May 2023, Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, when he was in charge of the Housing department, had announced that the government had decided so on the matter.
The demand for reducing the transfer fee had been pending many years, and several MLAs across parties have been raising the demand. The move is likely to give breather to those planning to sell property from the SRA scheme.
Apart from this, several other decisions were also passed. They include:
Change in plans of the sea-facing Marathi Bhasha Bhavan which is to be constructed at Charni Road in south Mumbai. The bhavan was initially planned at a plot adjacent to Javahar Bal Bhavan where offices of the education department are located. As per the new plan by the present government, both plots are set to be merged for construction of the Bhasha Bhavan.
Consolidated Panchnama of weather affected areas will be presented immediately. Farmers will be compensated.
'Mera Vidyalaya, Sundar Vidyalaya' campaign in the state. Schools will be evaluated. 478 schools in the first phase.
A scheme for betterment of Maulana Azad Minority Economic Development Corporation
Revised retirement pay for Industrial and Labor Court judges
There will be a significant increase in revenue by implementing 'Maharashtra Stamp Duty Abhay Yojana - 2023'
