The below mentioned table shows the setback space limit for buildings shorter than 11.5 m. and plot size lesser than 4000 sq. m:

	Width of the site(Right)	Width of the site (Left Side)	Depth of the site (right side)	Depth of the site (left side)
Up to 6.0 meter	1.0 meter	0 meter	1.0 meter	0 meter
Between 6.0 and 9.0 meter	1 meter on all sides	1 meter on all sides	1 meter on all sides	1 meter on all sides

For an instance, in a plot located at one corner then the two sides facing the road will be taken as front side and the related setbacks would be allotted to these sides.

In those plots that have two roads on both front and the back end then both the road facing sides shall be treated as front and the other two sides will be regarded as right sides.
