21. How Slum Rehabilitation Scheme works? 1. Get agreement from at least 70% of slum dwellers 2. Shift slum dwellers into transit accommodation and demolish the slum 3. Build new tenements for slum dwellers 4. Build (and sell) sale components as many as the FSI of the land allows FSI Limit ( FSI=3.0 in slum areas) Rehabilitated Components Sale Components 5. Sell the rest of incentive FSI or use it in other project sites to the north of this site = Transfer of Development Rights TDR Other projects Market Slum
