All external work including electricity, water supply, roads, drains, sewage schools, hospitals, fire-stations, sub-stations, stadium/sports complex etc are counted in EDC.

Internal Development Charges (IDC) in Real Estate:

In real estate Investment these are the charges that are same as the EDC charges and are collected by the government.

All these charges are used by the government in building the infrastructure and in the improving of socio-economic sectors of the state that includes highways, transportation systems, water supply facilities, electricity facilities and much more.
