Real estate experts have raised concerns over the effectiveness of the newly introduced electronic Transferable Development Rights (e-TDR) system implemented by the BMC from April 15, stating that its success will depend entirely on robust implementation and regulatory safeguards.

While the digital platform has significantly reduced paperwork and enabled online transactions, including integration with banking and record-keeping systems, experts caution that it may still fall short in ensuring complete transparency in its current form and say the system remains vulnerable to risks such as incorrect data entries and off-platform transactions, undermining the objective of digitisation.
