What Is FSI?

The most common term that comes in the use but creates a lot of confusion is FSI. FSI full form stands for Floor Space Index which is also known as FAR i.e Floor Area Ration. To understand in a better way, FSI can be stated as the maximum permissible floor area that a builder can build on a particular plot/piece of land. 

In simple words, FSI is the ratio of building floor covered area to area available on the land. This value of FSI varies from one place to another under the rules and regulations set by the city’s concerned authority.

FSI = Total Covered Area on All Floors/Gross Plot Area

Let’s understand with an example, if a plot of land measures about five hundred square meters, the permissible FSI is 1, then the construction of five hundred square meters will be allowed on this plot.  This is just an example as this number can change accordingly to the allowable Floor Space Index.

For example, the FSI of land may be dependent majorly on the location. In old and developed part of the city FSI can be different than in developing areas for the permissible FSI. The needs and development of a city can revise the FSI for the land and this FSI number defines the potential of the plot and its commercial value.
