Dharavi Commercial Units Must Request Additional Space by August 24
If you own a business in Dharavi, you can get some free space!
The government is redeveloping the area, and if you want more space than what's offered, you need to ask for it by August 24.
You can get up to 225 square feet free, but if your business is bigger, you can buy extra space.
You have to prove you had your business before the year 2000, with documents.
Also, businesses without proof of ownership will still get a place in the new buildings, and will get money back for some taxes for five years.
Dharavi commercial units must submit consent for extra space by August 24.
The Dharavi Redevelopment Project (DRP) is offering additional space at construction cost.
