What is FAR ?
The floor area ratio (F.A.R.) is the principal bulk regulation controlling the,size of buildings. F.A.R. is the ratio of total building floor area to the area ofthe plot. .
For example, if a plot measures 25 cents (approx. 10886 sq.ft) and the,F.A.R. permissible for that area is 2, then a maximum of 21772 sq.ft of space,will be permitted to construct in all floors of the building put together.
Town Planning Schemes mandates different F.A.R. values for different areas.The F.A.R. value, when multiplied with the Plot area gives us the maximum, floor area that can be constructed for a building in the plot. This is subject tosatisfying other conditions such as Parking, setbacks, access width etc.
