Did you find out compensation policy of BMC, which a local municipal body ?

In urban infrastructure projects like road widening along major corridors such as JP Road in Andheri West, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) operates under statutory powers governed primarily by the Mumbai Municipal Corporation (MMC) Act, 1888.

The BMC prescribes a statutory street line (widening boundary) for a public street. Once a "regular line" is defined, any portion of a private building falling within this line comes under acquisition rules. If the impacted space consists of setback areas, open compounds, or simple external shop frontages, the BMC can take possession under Section 299 by serving statutory notice, provided compensation is determined. If the widening requires taking down permanent structural parts or entire buildings, the BMC must follow Section 298/301 provisions, requiring formal notice and compensation for the loss of structure and underlying land rights.

The BMC’s baseline compensation calculations generally rely on the official Ready Reckoner rates published by the Government of Maharashtra. This forms the statutory benchmark for land and structural values.

Affected parties who dispute the quantum of compensation or eligibility can file appeals with the Municipal Commissioner, designated tribunals, or challenge the proceedings via Writ Petitions in the Bombay High Court.
