  Hyderabad CURE Act Now in Force: New Property Tax Rules, 10% Cap and What Owners Need to Know Hyderabad | October 3, 2026 Hyderabad's biggest municipal-governance change in decades is no longer just a proposal. The Core Urban Region (Integrated Governance) Act, 2026 — commonly called the CURE Act — came into force on October 2 , replacing the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act, 1955 and introducing a common framework for the Greater Hyderabad, Cyberabad and Malkajgiri municipal corporations.

The answer is important because the new relief is broad, but it is not a blanket removal of every property from the proh...

  Hyderabad, September 18, 2026 Building permissions are set to become more visible at construction sites in Hyderabad after the Telangana High Court directed the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation to make the display of building approvals mandatory. The direction covers construction sites within GHMC jurisdiction and, according to reporting on the order, also extends to smaller plots that may fall under exemption or self-certification provisions. The development is important for homeowners, builders and property buyers because it reinforces a basic rule of urban construction: a building being under construction does not by itself prove that the work is authorised. What Did the Telangana High Court Direct? The High Court directed GHMC to ensure that building permissions are displayed at construction sites so that the approval status can be more easily identified. The court also directed officials to inspect ongoing construction in the Siddamber Bazaar and Begum Bazaar circles ...
