Punjab Enaksha, also known as Online Building Plan Approval System (OBPAS), is accepting building plan applications online at enaksha.lgpunjab.gov.in. This E-Municipal Naksha platform is a single place where architects and citizens can submit their drawings and documents for building plan approval. It covers 165 Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) in addition to 27 Improvement Trusts.
People can check the Naksha pass fees easily and get the house map approval through online mode at enaksha.lgpunjab.gov.in.
Punjab Enaksha Online Building Plan Approval System (OBPAS)
State government is elected by the people and is accountable to them. So, the state government is making sure of clarity through e-governance. Government is also focusing on modernizing the infrastructure in all Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) of the state.
Punjab E-Naksha or OBPAS is a fully online platform where no building plan is allowed to be submitted manually.
One important update for investors is that with effect from 15.05.2025, building plan applications under certain categories are no longer accepted on the eNaksha portal. These categories are Industry, Hotel, Nursing home/Hospital and Institutions. Investors have to submit such applications through the Punjab Bureau of Investment Promotion (Invest Punjab) instead. For all other categories, including residential buildings, the eNaksha portal continues to accept applications online.
