Occupancy Certificate for Wave City Center

https://lilyhair.de

  • Offers Possession of its Commercial – High Street Shop Condominiums (HSSC)
  • Delivery of premium residences AMORE to commence soon 

Noida, Sept 23rd, 2019: Wave City Center, a mega residential-and-commercial project developing in the heart of the city, in Sector 32 Noida, has begun delivering and giving possessions of its products. With construction at a brisk pace, Wave City Center is delivering its first commercial development, High Street Shop Condominiums (HSSC).

Understanding, that the traditional retail developments are soon to be passé, and the sector needs something more immersive, Wave City Center ventured into a unique kind of retail concept with High Street. The retail sector is evolving as per changing consumer patterns and HSSC has the necessary innovation of providing better consumer engagement for retailers and ease of access for the consumers.

With Occupancy Certificate received for over 4 lacs sq. ft. of area, Wave City Center is set to cater to its patrons with its high street retail, which gives its customers the best of retail experience than conventional malls. It is built on G+2 structure, with dedicated pedestrian-friendly pathways, convenient underground parking, impressive frontages, open landscaped areas and sidewalk cafes.

This high street retail is unique in many ways, starting from its space efficiency. In a mall setting, there is always the issue related to the saleable area and the area a shop owner can actually use (covered area). In such cases, shops are left with only 50% or even less of space efficiency; what sets this development apart is around 90% of its space efficiency, which gives shoppers a clutter-free shopping experience and retailers more covered (usable) area. Apart from space efficiency, here, investors get freedom from paying heavy CAM charges. In a mall, CAM charges may range from Rs. 35-40 per sq. ft., but here, the Common Area Maintenance (CAM) charges are expected to be around Rs. 10 per sq. ft. thus reducing the burden on the retailer.

Wave City Center’s high street retail provides all the facilities of a mall, yet it stands apart, as it not only gives its patrons a unique shopping experience but also keeps in mind their convenience. Parking is the most pressing issue nowadays, and generally, high street locations do not have sufficient parking spaces. The high street here has a 3 level basement parking; all that a customer has to do is park conveniently and get easy access to the shopping arcade.

Speaking on this occasion, Mr. CJ Singh, COO, Wave City Center said, “We are delighted to receive the Occupancy Certificate for HSSC. We are delivering our first retail product, which is set to change the retail scenario in Noida. We are giving our customers a destination with a different shopping experience. It is developed keeping in mind the convenience of both the investors and the patrons.

Connectivity and location are the key factors for a successful retail establishment and HSSC at Wave City Center, is set in one of the best locations in Noida. It is well connected to all arterial locations of the city like sector 18, Noida Golf Course, DND and is adjacent to Wave City Center Metro Station.

Talking on Wave Infratech’s commitment to delivering, Mr. Rajiv Gupta, CEO Wave Infratech said,“ With a couple of financial institutions already on board, our construction is at full pace. We, at Wave, remain committed to offering a world-class luxury experience to our customers at Wave City Center.

What builders do normally to clear their inventories?

Instead of reducing the per square feet (PSF) rate, normally, builders give discounts & offers and freebies to potential buyers. And to attract home buyers, normally builders experiment with the all-inclusive price.

Are these offers and discounts trustworthy?

Sometimes Yes, Sometimes No!! It all depends on the buyer’s bargaining ability. There are a few points which homebuyers should keep in their mind while buying properties during festive season:

  • Do not hurry for freebies. Give priorities to your requirements.

  • Don’t fall for the misconception of festive sales. Properties in a specific market are already available at a reduced price. If the builder is promoting the deal as ‘limited offer’, be aware that after the festival season, the benefits would remain almost the same or will be turned into some other offer.

  • Make out whether you are really saving big with that deal. The overall cost of the freebie and gift is included in the cost of the home. It is the buyers who need to choose which deal or offer suits them the most.

  • Make sure that the cost of freebies has not been added to the basic cost of the unit and that there are no hidden charges which the builder will ask for later.

  • If the offers & discounts are appropriate for all units or only select units? Sometimes, non-premium or non-Vastu compliant units are sold at huge discounts.

  • Figure out the price of the units over the last few months. Sometimes seen value to actual value might differ effectively.

What are homebuyers exactly looking for this festive season?

Homebuyers want a little extra to make a fresh deal this season. They are looking for affordability with modernity. From amenities that match their modern lifestyles including modular kitchens, luxury bathroom fittings, etc. Buyers are more clever than before, and are willing to take 80-85% loan but won’t negotiate with amenities. Good location with entree to lifestyle options like clubs, gym, parking, and markets is important to deal with. This is special from the normal discounts, fee waivers and rent guarantees by builders for festive sale gifts.

Noida May Allow Registry of Flats Without NOC to Accelerate Deliveries of Projects

Under-construction properties in Noida

You might hear or read that Noida tops the list of cities having the most unsold inventory. As much as over 1 lakh units still unsold by Noida builders. The major reason for the buyer’s unwillingness to buy under-construction properties. In addition, the impact is also visible on ready-to-move-in properties which have not yet received Occupancy Certificate (OC) owing to developers failing to pay land dues to the authority. This has not only to give a hard time to the home buyers but also has to lead to disturbance and left liquidity crisis in the city.

However, there is a reason for cheer for both builders and buyers as the district administration is considering granting the registry of property even if the authority has not given NOC to the project through an “agreement to sub-lease” between the builder and buyer. The builder lobby has welcomed this move saying that this will help in improving the city’s image and will further be effective in bringing more investment in the city.

The plan was discussed in a meeting held on Saturday between officials of the district administration and the Uttar Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority (UP-RERA). The officials also evaluated changes in laws that now make it compulsory for the development authorities to allot Completion Certificates to builders within 8-days of applying for it.

I have explained above that in many cases it has been found that homes were ready, but the builder had not cleared the authority’s due and didn’t get a no-objection certificate (NOC). In such cases, the buyers are left in a stumble and would sometimes hang around into the homes they paid for but due to the unavailability of any valid documents for ownership.

As per district magistrate BN Singh, they can now charge the 5% stamp duty and register the flats on an agreement to sub-lease between the builder and the buyer”. He further explained that once the builder gets a NOC from the Noida Authority, it can finally sub-lease the property to the buyer. This would be a tripartite agreement between the builder, buyer, and the Noida Authority.

The DM further explained that once the Noida Authority provides NOC and Completion Certificate, we will then issue a final registry certificate with Rs 50 stamp duty.

As per the UP Urban Planning and Development Act, the Development Authority was supposed to respond within 3-months of application regarding issuing the completion certificate for a project. However, the law has now been revised to accelerate the delivery process with the increasing delays in the delivery of flats to homebuyers.

What is the new law saying?

As per the new law, the authority will grant NOC to developers according to the dues cleared. It means if a developer has paid 50% of the total dues then the authority will issue the NOC for 40% of the land area and keep 10% as a deposit. This will allow some of the buyers to get possession even if the developer has not paid the full dues to the authority.
