No Comments Sub Category:Projects,Realty News Posted On: Sep 15, 2014

These days apartments are usually targeted at a particular income groups. But a developer in Greater Noida has narrowed down his focus further into a particular community. The builder, Adarsh Group, is promoting the apartments – Gulistaan Golf View Heights – as dream homes for the elite Muslim brotherhood.

The apartments – 368 in all, priced at between Rs 2,500 and Rs 3,750 per sq feet – are coming up on 3.5 acres in Sports City, Greater Noida. It will have a mosque, a madrassa, and will face Qibla – the direction a Muslim faces when offering prayers.

Construction is likely to begin by the end of this month. While this may be a sound business proposition, questions are being raised on whether this is an attempt at creating high-end ghettoes. But equally, some see this as a practical solution in a country where it is still often difficult for Muslims to rent or buy houses. These are going to be dream houses for Muslims in Sports City, said Saleem Zafar, owner and CEO of Adarsh Group.
