Q: Which is a better place to invest Ulwe or Panvel in Navi Mumbai?
My replies to this discussion
HI, Ulwe of Navi Mumbai is the India's best destination for residential flat investment for long term around 5 years. So invest there with a reputed builder and in good location. Annual return would be around 30-35% subject to growth and risk factors. Growth Factors like 1) proximity to Navi Mumbai International airport, 2) it is connected with the important Thane-Belapur Road through the Uran Road,which also connects it with the JNPT Road that goes towards the Jawaharlal Nehru Port.HI, Ulwe of Navi Mumbai is the India's best destination for residential flat investment for long term around 5 years.

Q: Planning to book a 2 BHK flat in SD Bhalerao. Has the project taken off??

My comments to replies
The area Vartak Nagar is old settlement of MIG & LIG folks for past say 35-40 yrs - the social infra is quite good and location is strategic too. You need to be careful while investing in MHADA re-development properties as it takes anything from 18 months to 36 months for the construction to commence and later if the builder is not financially able then the project gets slowed down.
Hi Shreya, But you didn't mentioned the real estate price trend in the locality? Can you tell me what is the current presidential property rate in the locality is going on?

I have read in many threads that there is a delay in possession for this project. Can anyone throw some light in this matter?
You are right Lalit. This all are the unecessary costs which investors have to undertake due to builders mistake. I heard that the builder is facing liquidity crunch and also may not get further CC approvals still they are offering i20 car on bookings. I personally feel that they have utilized the investors money of this project to launch other projects. Still hoping to get the construction in full swimg as soon as possible.

Hi everybody, According to me, the apartments price in Ulwe have remained constant for past 3 qtrs. The developers in the area are cutting their prices a little. So this might be the right time for you to invest in a property in Ulwe. Some of the growth factors in the locality are proximity to Navi Mumbai International airport, well connected with the important Thane-Belapur Road through the Uran Road which also connects it with the JNPT Road.
I think Ketal is right, Ulwe has one of the largest SEZs in India is being set-up in Navi Mumbai, under the careful supervision of CIDCO. Seeing the current real estate market in Navi Mumbai, i would suggest you to go for Ulwe. Ulwe in Navi Mumbai is the India's best destination for residential property investment for long term around 5 years. So invest there with a reputed builder and in good location. Annual return would be around 30% subject to growth and risk factors.

Hi Guys, I have a property in Premier Exotica Kurla Building 3 and am now being asked to pay 3rd installment as well as register the flat. got a letter dated 1st nov. i also got a similar demand notice in oct for which ive paid the installment.

Do not waste your money in this project or any of # DB projects.. There is no commitment, no compensation and negative investment value... i have a 1 bhk and trying to sell at 40 but similar Flats are selling at 32 lacs because of distress sellers. Even Kalyan being so far you will have to shed higher for flats of the same area It doesnt entertain any existing buyers query and not interested in responding on the details. . If you want to know any information just pose as a new customer.. Pathetic group and management.. Completely avoid the investment
Right Sijju, Even i saw a real estate agent is selling 1BHK at 38 lakh in 99 acres.com(Base price). I had call him and confirm the price . Total inclusive will cost me around 52-55lakh. Already project is in delay stage . Is it good to invest?
15th July 2015
Apart from that, there can be several other hidden costs such as unapproved plans, unpaid civic authority dues etc. which further bother the misery of the buyer unless one is financially prepared for the same right from the beginning. Typically a rise of around 25% from the initial layout can be expected when buying a piece of real estate.

Thinking of buying with Lodha group, think 1000 times before putting your hard earned money. They are biggest cheaters. Rakesh, Mumbai
Hi Rakesh, I would say that the product quality is just OK, but not excellent. A few residents have earlier complained about few cracks in walls and water seepage during the rainy season. Amenities wise, Casa Rio project and there is plenty of open space in the society. It seems to me that you havn't got your flat possession on time. However, the main problem is delays in delivering the Flat. People are getting their Flat after 2-4 years of delays than the promised dates.
26th June 2015
I think Shantanu is right. You spend your life time savings in buying flats/apartments. So, you must check and verify all the legal approvals and documents before paying the booking amount. The cause of delay shown by Lodha to each and every customer that they are having problem with labour and materials. But they never missed the opportunity to take the interest of delayed payment even for a single day from you. Why Lodha is not paying to the customer when they are in fault?

Hi Everybody, Here is a good news for all who were waiting for the affordable home. Have you heard this news that the Maharashtra government will change rules and regulations to help in delivery of affordable housing projects for the millions of the state's poor. Making sure that the offered new housing policy would be "pro-people", Maharashtra CM Fadnavis told the developers to work together with the government in its mission to provide affordable housing for the lower-middle class and the poor people.
Right Sir, As per the Finance Minister Sudhir Mungantiwar, state government would also emphasis on developing infrastructure and the 3000 km long state highways would be developed as national highways. FM asked the developers community to join hands with the government in building a new Maharashtra.

@Manilal, He also said that challenging laws and taxation must go to help the developers, but finally that should also result in affordable housing stocks. But as per him, the new offered Development Control Rules for Mumbai would make sure that the optional powers of officials are decrease to the minimum for increased visibility.

12th May 2015

He all, As per the current news Ambedkarites of Nagpur city too have joined hands to fight with BJP government influenced Land Acquisition Amendment Bill which was recently proposed in Lok Sabha. All their views are seen related to the other key parties who have called the proposed amendments anti-farmer and anti-poor.
True Yogendra, As per Ambedkarites the change bought in by NDA does not look for the agreement of farmers before acquiring their cultivable land, it has attracted a lot of critique not only coming from political circle but also from various agriculture activists where a lot of them had attempted to protest in the city.
26th May 2015
Now, the farmer has made their voice more stronger towards the Govt. A farmer leader has told that government is trying to bring in bunch of corporate companies through this bill, but if that is being bought at the cost of all those farmers who may loose their cultivable land, then they are not going to support this bill.

Thanks a lot Shaunak, Can you tell which among these have the highest rental demand and what are the reason behind it?
Well Suresh, As per commonfloor report and analysis, Powai is one of the famous localities in Mumbai. It has Kensington SEZ, which is an IT SEZ, and the famous IIT Mumbai. It is also being called the start-up hub of Mumbai. The rising population of students and IT professionals in this region is making Powai a good place for rent. Kharghar is located close to the industrial parks in Navi Mumbai and also CBD Belapur.

Hi, Neel Group Builders and Developers is not a very famous builder in Mumbai like, Tirupati Balaji Group, Kalpataru, Adani Group, Lodha Group, Oberoi Realty Ltd. and so on. So, before investing in their project survey the project site, see the construction quality and the amenities promised by the developers. Before signing the agreement check all the legal approvals, visit the local municipal and verify the documents. Better, the advice of a legal expert in this matter. After all it is a matter of your hard earned money.
There are some ongoing projects of this builder in New Panvel, Navi Mumbai. These are Neel Orchid-commercial-cum-residential complex in Sector 10, Khanda Colony, New Panvel, Neel Castle- Sec-3, Near D.A.V. School, New Panvel (E), Neel Samarthya -Sector-8, Kalamboli, Navi Mumbai, Neel Siddhi Enclave- Sec-14, Vashi, Opp. Navi Mumbai Merchant Gymkhana, AJINKYA Co-Op Housing Society-Sec-8, New Panvel, Navi Mumbai, Neel Empire-Sec-25, Nerul , Neel Avenue-Sec-19, New Panvel and Neel Atharva-Panvel, Neel Shrusht-New Panvel etc.

Q: Can you please advice whether it would be a good idea to buy a flat in Bangur Nagar which comes under CRZ? We are not sure under which CRZ zone this area comes under. Please provide your opinion on: 1) Will there be a redevelopment in Bangur Nagar ever? as it comes under CRZ 2) If redevelopment does happen will the new construction get OC due to CRZ norms? Thank You

Hi Amit, I will not advice you to buy property under CRZ Zone because Environmental Ministry has prevented the residential construction on it. They will not issue the builder NOC even the local body will ask for the NOC from the Environment Ministry and in absence of it they will not give builder IOD and CC.Hi Amit, I will not advice you to buy property under CRZ Zone because Environmental Ministry has prevented the residential construction on it.

Hey guys, If i am not wrong, Congress want to divert the mind of the UPA because their view in the form of dissent note by Congress has surprised many, as even the original bill that UPA government had brought to the Parliament had the provision that all projects could register with the regulator only if these were developed on plots measuring more than 1000 sq-mtr.
Right Victor, Even i am experiencing the same.....it is also learnt that most of the members are in favour of doing away with provision of treating "bulk buyer" as developers since this may put a brake on the investment flow to the real estate sector.

You are right Ravi........ All's Well That Ends Well is a Idioms that suited this market perfectly. It is true that the bill can help farmers. But, at the same time it will not harm the real estate sector if it is handled in a right manner.
Currently, this Bill has been referred by Rajya Sabha to a select committee on May 6 for its examination with instruction to submit its report by the last day of the first week of the current monsoon session. And it is expected that the 21-member committee headed by BJP member Anil Madhav Dave is likely to submit the report this week.
23rd July 2015

Yes, because real estate developers get land directly from farmers or other land owners at the price fixed by them and they were not losing any money on it. Sometimes, farmers in urban areas get double the original prices, while in rural areas, they get 4 times more.
@Puneet, In spite of that, the government has to handle the matter carefully, though it will take another 3 to 4 years to acquire the land under the bill due to upcoming problems in getting it
20th July 2015

Good evening everybody, The select committee of Rajya Sabha is expected to table its report on the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Bill, 2013 today. Cheers for the buyers....
Hmm.....But one of the major consumer protection measures proposed by the 21-member committee, headed by BJP MP Anil Madhav Dave, is the mandatory condition that developers have to deposit 50% or more of the home buyers' money in a bank which shall be released according to the progress of the construction work. How many of us are agree with this proposal?

Q: Hello everybody actually after SBI Repo rate cut, since it's a great time for buyers i'm planning to invest for some residential project & have heard a lot about Neptune Group so i have decided to invest with them ,so i want to know that which one is more better Neptune 100 Above or Neptune Triveni sangam

My comments to replies
Hi Rohan, Both the project has its own features and it depends on your budget. Neptune 100 above is a luxury project and it cost more than 1.3 crores for a 2BHK while Neptune Triveni Sangam is an affordable project and it cost to you Rs. 37 lacs onward for a 2BHK. Second and the most important point is locality, if you are a working people then you have to select a project which is near to your work station and all the daily basic necessities should be nearby.
I really appreciate what Ravi has explained above........ Neptune 100 above, located at Lal Bahadur Shastri Marg, Bhandup West, Mumbai offers 2/2.5/3 BHK having 30 floors and its sizes are 1125 sq-ft in 2BHK which will cost you Rs. 1.30 crore onward, 2.5BHK in 1390 sq-ft, cost to you Rs, 1.58 crore onward and 3BHK in 1535 sq-ft and price will be Rs. 1.81 crore onward. Whereas, in Neptune Triveni Sangam, located at Ambivali, Mumbai offers 1/2BHK apartment having 18 floors and its sizes are 581-639 sq-ft in 1BHK and which will cost you Rs. 27.30-30 lac onward and 2BHK from 800-916 sq-ft. and it will go up to Rs. 37.60-43 lacs onward.

Marketing guys didn't even bothered to show site before the booking. Even on informing within hours on the same day, they are not returning my booking amount. They are not authorised to forfeit my booking amount as I haven't availed of any services by the builder as it was same day cancellation. Please someone guide me, how can I get my money back?

Hi Suresh, Send a mail to the builder in which it should be mentioned that you are moving to the consumer court for the relief. Take the copy of both send and received mail copy along with while filing in to the consumer court. In cases where the value of goods and services involved is less than Rs. 20 Lakhs in value, you will have to file the complaint in the District Forum constituted in the specified districts of a State. In cases where the value of goods and services involved is more than Rs. 20 Lakhs in value but does not exceed Rs 1 crore you will have to file the complaint with the State Commission constituted in the capital cities of the different states. In cases where the value of goods and services involved is more than 1 crore in value then you can file a complaint with the National Commission which has been constituted only in New Delhi.

My comments to replies
Hi all. I am not getting you all. What is this means? Can you describe little bit more so that it will help me while go for property buying near airport?
@Kishore, See, till now, building height permissions around the airport depended upon the height of the already existing structures in the area concerned. So even if a structure put limitations on the use of a runway because of its location and height, other buildings in the vicinity were granted similar height permissions. These obstructions along the flight path meant that a landing aircraft was forced to touch down deeper into the runway. That is, the entire runway could not be used for a landing. Hope, you understood.
4th December 2015
Now you will find that the October rules have also prepared a colour-coded map for the city , classifying it into five divisions based on the permissible height restrictions on buildings around the airport. The AAI will also introduce an online system, where a citizen can directly check the height restrictions in an area where they plan to buy a flat, irrespective of the promises by the builder.

Q: Parking is on of the most important space while buying a home or renting an apartment.

My comments to replies
Hi all, The developer will charge for the car parking based on the common areas defined. The limited common areas assigned to each unit include a patio garden, attic storage, a crawl space, an entrance area, and a driveway parking area, which are chargeable. Even, the builder can charge you extra price if he is offering you a stilt car parking space, which falls under the limited common area facilities. The open car parking has to be free of cost as the open sky space is under common area facilities.
Son, you mean to say that if someone is buying flat and looking for parking then they should go for stilt car parking, as it is a cost efficient parking and can save our pocket as well. And those who are buying a covered car parking, normally it ranges from Rs 2 to 3 lakh or may vary according to the project and the developer brand.

My comments to replies
Hi Mahesh, The real estate industry is one of the most heavily taxed industries in the country. Property Purchase Taxes in India, both those paid directly by the home buyer while buying a property as well as those paid by the developer during construction constitute nearly 35% to 45% of the cost of the property.
Apart from that, a buyer is to deduct a TDS of 1% on the total purchase value of 50 Lacs including Service Tax. The TDS deductions would required to be deposited in the Central Government Account via s Challan Form (Form No.26Q) within 7 days from the date of deduction is made. Delayed payments deposit in the Government account would be subject to interest payments.

Hi all, In such a situation, investors are turning their attention to areas such as Panvel, Nhava Sheva and Uran, which are affordable and will soon be easily accessible from the mainland. The mood is quite upbeat, but there is also an element of fear because Over the past decade, Navi Mumbai has been at the receiving end of promises which haven't come through for a very long time.
Yes Kalki, Ulwe and Dronagiri, located near the JNPT, stand to gain a lot from the proposed sea link project. With the sea link, it will be possible to reach these areas from Sewri in 15 minutes, as opposed to the present travel time of 2-hrs. This factor has doubled real estate prices over the past year, which have rised rapidly from Rs 800/sq-mt to Rs 1500/sq-mt.

And these funds were spent on two central schemes:- Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) and Rajiv Awas Yojana (RAY). They have together facilitated the construction of as many as 4.04 lakh houses so far between the 2012-13 and 2015-16 financial year.

It is also said that an amount of Rs 6301.21 crore was released by the Union government cumulatively towards that end.

HI Ashok, In budget 2015-16, it was proposed that a home buyer will pay a service tax of 14% while buying a property that is under construction instead of the current 12.36%. It is not charged on the entire value of the property but only to the extent of cost of construction. This means that cost of land is excluded.
Yes, and VAT is charged at the rate of 1% of ''agreement value'' in Mumbai and Pune. For the purpose of calculation, 25% of the gross value of an under-construction unit with value less than Rs.1 crore is considered to be the cost of construction, and service tax is applied on this. Properties valuing more than Rs.1 crore attract service tax of 30% of the gross value.

Visit the developer's office and ask for the possession. As it was a FSI and CIDCO approved project and almost all the major bank and financial institutions had approved it. If there was any such issue with OC, then people had must discussed on it but there is no such information found in any real estate forum sites.

Hi Bhavin, Registration to be done on your name by going to Sub registrar office (You and buyer will need Photo ID and PAN Card, passport Photo) 2-witness with Photo ID and photo. Better if you approach the MHADA agent who is doing the MAHADA flat registration work. Many Agents do the Registration work and they will let you know you the more and it is easy through them, they charge about 4 to 5K . Once registration is done legally you become the owner but for MHADA Flat you also need Mhada Flat transferred on your name by MHADA. For MHADA Transfer you have to fill up the form from MHADA and official fees around 35000 DD to be paid, copy of Registration to be attached. if your are going directly for Mhada transfer after Registration then it may take 6 month but if you go through Mhada Agent then it can be done in 15-20 days( you have to pay the bribe to Mhada about 15 to 25 thousands) .Hi Bhavin, Registration to be done on your name by going to Sub registrar office (You and buyer will need Photo ID and PAN Card, passport Photo) 2-witness with Photo ID and photo.

Can you suggest few safe options which can yield decent rental returns as well as price appreciation in near future. Thank you for your assistance.

Yes, and specially the luxury segments. The luxury and high-end segments of residential real estate will also see a major impact from this exercise, since it is another area which has seen a lot of payments done in cash. The legal banking/financing channels have accounted for only a small part of all transactions in this space. The demonetization move is likely to result in luxury property prices dipping by as much as 25-30% as sellers struggle to offload properties to generate liquidity.Yes, and specially the luxury segments.

Hi Anubhav!! The Wing-A has come up to plinth level and the Wing-B foundation has been done. They did not get the environmental clearance and hence the construction was stopped. This July'14 they got it however they still needed the Construction Certificate to re-start. I was told in Sep that the construction will start in October End I passed by a couple of days ago and still seems no movement. I don't know when they will start the construction.Hi Anubhav!!

Hi Anubhav!! I have visited the project site last year in October. The Wing-A has come up to plinth level and the Wing-B foundation has been done. They did not get the environmental clearance and hence the construction was stopped. This July'14 they got it however they still needed the Construction Certificate to re-start. I was told in Sep that the construction will start in October End I passed by a couple of days ago and still seems no movement. I don't know when they will start the construction and hand over the flat possession.Hi Anubhav!! I have visited the project site last year in October.

Q: Date of posession promised while booking the flat was sept 2014 while in the contract they mentioned dec 2015 as a late date. Even after that we are waiting for the posession. Builder is not replying to mails and gives rude response over phone calls. They are saying it is delayed due to delay in power grid making by the govt authorities and they are not responsible for it. ON WHAT BASIS THEY PROMISED POSESSION OF SEPT 2014. We are staying in a rented flat and paying EMIs for this long awated flat.

Hi Gaur, A home buyer, who fails to get the possession of his property on time, can resort to several provisions under India’s civil, criminal and consumer laws, to take action against the developers. You can send a notice to the builder, claiming refund of the amounts paid along with interest and/or damages. You can also file a consumer complaint for "deficiency in service" as defined under the Consumer Protection Act, 1986 against the builder.Hi Gaur, A home buyer, who fails to get the possession of his property on time, can resort to several provisions under India’s civil, criminal and consumer laws, to take action against the developers.

Q: The conveyance to my society was not given by the builders. Although society already won a case against builders in civil court, the builder fraudulently sold the conveyance to third party and third part name is appearing in Index 2 at the registration office. This was done by one of the partners of the builder and now society is forced to litigation in high court. Can the society file for deemed conveyance under this circumstances or when matters are pending in High Court? Please opine

Yes, i am agree with Manish. As per the Housing Society bye-laws, the main objective of formation of the Society is to obtain the Conveyance, and if Conveyance is not given by the Builder within four months from the date of registration of the Society, a case can be filed against the Builder to obtain the Conveyance.Yes, i am agree with Manish.

Q: We have seen many flats in Thane majiwada, mulund as well as bhandup. Need to know how is Kalptaru Crest, senroofs,Wadhwa atmosphere and Rustomjee Azziano (thane).

Hi Lakshmi Kant, I recently visited Sunroof project. They are asking 30% as black money. Price similar to Wadhwa, they also want floor rise charges. I also have some doubt regarding the project land but quality of construction and interior are superior as compared to Wadhwa Atmospere, HDIL Majestic Towers and Runwal Greens. But price range seems to be on the higher side. They are telling major flats have been sold. And it is not approved by MAHA RERA. So, be careful before booking ur unit.
As far as Wadhwa Atmosphere is concerned, construction linked payment will be at Rs.25000 and subvention will be approx Rs.30000. Obviously, GST has increased the cost of under-construction properties. Try RTM in Runwal Greens (investor resale), save on GST - 12% and Pre-emi - 15-25%, so even if it is 25% expensive, it's worth more than under-construction... Runwal forest 950 carpet area is for Rs. 2.4 crore all inclusive and 1080 sq-ft. carpet is for Rs. 2.85 crore all in construction linked.
