1. Cross-Referencing Seller Allotment with Official Layout Plans
Many resale disputes arise from miscommunication between street names and pocket plot numbers. Every DDA sector is divided into formal pockets (e.g. Pocket 1 to Pocket 28 in Sector 24), and each pocket has an immutable geometric layout plan sanctioned by DDA’s planning wing.
- Confirm the sector, pocket, and plot number matches the official DDA blueprint on PlotBook.
- Verify the exact street width fronting the plot (e.g. 9 metre, 12 metre, 18 metre, or 24 metre road).
- Check the adjoining plot numbers on both flanks and the rear property line.
2. Verifying Road Widths and Corner Premiums
Corner plots and plots on 12m+ arterial roads command a 15% to 25% premium in Rohini. However, unregistered encroachments or informal alterations by neighboring owners can compromise road access.
- Check the sanctioned road width on the layout plan vs. ground reality.
- Confirm side setbacks and corner splays (chamfers) designed for turning visibility.
- Inspect utility easements: transformer installations, water booster stations, and sewer main alignments.
Important: Always cross-verify with PlotBook’s high-resolution DeepZoom viewer while standing directly on the physical site to verify true plot dimensions.
3. Checking DDA Allotment vs. Freehold Conversion Status
Most plots in Rohini were originally allotted under 99-year perpetual leases. Freehold conversion via a Conveyance Deed executed by DDA gives the owner absolute ownership rights.
- Freehold plots carry a registered Conveyance Deed with sub-registrar book entries.
- Leasehold plots require formal DDA permission to sell or conversion application prior to final registry.
- Ensure the chain of title (all prior sale deeds from original allottee) is unbroken.
