Market Behaviour

Understanding Customer Need And Delivering Value Every Time

The Market Behaviour department at PMRDA is primarily established to address existing and on-going illegal developments. Not only such developments endanger life of citizens inhabiting the locality, they also hamper the commercial growth of economically sensitive areas.

Unplanned urban development and illegal structures affect city planning and even disturb the ecological balance of the area. PMRDA would, therefore, be focusing on rewarding compliant parties and penalizing illegal or unauthorized constructions. The department will focus on improving Standard of Living and Liveability Index by promoting legitimate and authorized constructions in the PMR.

The Market Behaviour department uses a mobile application, available for free downloads on IOS, Android and other smartphone platforms. Citizens will be able to anonymously report illegal on-going constructions on the application and request penal action from PMRDA. This is the first step towards involving masses in the reorientation of the society to contain illegal behaviour.
