However, the Product IPRs transferred consist of building permit approval systems “AutoPlan”, “PlanPermit”, and Fire NOC approval system “AgniPermit”.

Since AutoPlan is already adopted by over 15,000 Architects and Structural Engineers, SRIT shall be able to on-board these trained professionals to the DIGIT platform to fast-track its urban governance solution implementations.
