The e-registration for developers for the first property sale will begin on October 2, Balasaheb Thorat, State revenue minister announced on Saturday. This initiative will benefit the citizens.
“The registration department is all set with the software, and the process will be officially implemented from 2nd October. This will be for developers registered with RERA, to whom the department will supply the software after appropriate checks. This allows them to register documents from their offices.”
Orientation program for developers
While the minister had previously said that e-registration would be compulsory for all such developers, Throat said citizens can also register properties at sub-registrar offices. Before the e-registration of all new housing projects started with the Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA) from October 1, the state registration department is ready to test the software next week. 50-60 developers have already begun e-registration in the state. Currently, more than 350 projects and 2,700 documents have been registered by e-registration.
Shravan Hardikar, inspector general of registration and stamps, said, “the upcoming software allows the developer to prepare a project template within 24 hours, this process took time earlier. A developer orientation program will be held in the last week of September.”
Brings more transparency
The department also reflects on the application process. To access the software, the developer must first contact the district registrar. This process expected to result in more e-registrations, the department will also provide for an increase in staff to speed up the e-registration of documents.
Sunil Furde, CREDAI State President expressed his opinion and said, E-registration will be a game changer for developers and customers registered with RERA. “This will bring transparency and clarity to the registration process.” Customers planning to register properties next month said the process would remove intermediaries or middlemen.
Last week Finance Minister R. Ashoka said, that the government is considering revising the guidance value by December. Any reduction will be made in overall Karnataka, with the exception of industrial areas and areas along the highways.
Discussions in the state government about the decline in the guidance values have encouraged developers and potential home buyers. This will spur the real estate sector showing signs of improvement after the second wave of Covid-19.
A lower guidance value is expected to boost the number of property registrations, which in turn will increase government revenue. About 2.1 lakh documents were registered in August, which generated revenue of Rs 1,142 crore, up from Rs 969 crore (1.7 lakh documents) in 2020 and Rs 911 crore in 2019.
What is Guidance Value?
Guidance value is the property’s minimum sale price. The government creates this depending on the area and the type of building. Downward revisions will lead to lower property prices. According to the rules, the government must review the costs every year. In January 2019, the government announced an increment in the range of 5 to 24 percent.
Demands to lower the rates
K.P. Mohanraj, Inspector General of Registration and Commissioner of Stamps, said, the guidance value could not be revised in 2020 due to the pandemic. Since the government wants to accept this year, we started the process. Demands for lower rates have long been heard, which in some areas is very high and leads to overpricing of real estate. For example, the guidance value of a property on MG Road is over Rs 1.9 lakh per square metre. On Lavelle Road it is about Rs 2 lakhs per square metre. Some real estate representatives said that due to the recession associated with Covid, some properties were undervalued and sold.
Government should also provide exemption in stamp duty
MS Shankar, the general secretary of the Forum for People’s Collective Efforts, said a decrease in the guidance value will have an impact on the property tax. The news added to the positive sentiment, especially in the wake of the recent property tax euro caused by BBMP’s erroneous zoning. The government should also consider reducing the stamp duty on property registrations across all price ranges.
Suresh Hari, chairman of CREDAI-Bangalore, said, while we welcome the government’s plans to lower the guidance value, we hope the government also takes into account the underlying realities before concluding the final rates. He added that real estate sales have reached 30 percent from the level before covid.
The Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA) has opened a help desk for citizens to resolve inquiries from home buyers regarding various services. Toll-free numbers are 1800 2103770 and 022-69157100 operate from 7:00 am to 11:00pm every day, except Sundays and public holidays.
MahaRERA’s secretary Vasant Prabhu said the technical assistance was launched when many citizens declared their inability to communicate with the authorities after the pandemic for various problems. A team has been appointed to assist citizens in resolving their concerns. The team will assist them in filing complaints online or checking dates of hearings or other project registration requests. The support service will provide general information. If there are citizens who want to understand more technical issues, a dedicated technical team will help them.
Ramesh Prabhu, chairman of the Maharashtra Society Welfare Association, said, this move would help citizens who are unfamiliar with MahaRERA’s activities. Many of MahaRERA members tried to call the toll-free number and found it very helpful. This move is very advantageous during the time of pandemic. Citizens can contact the support service and check the status of the project before investing in it.
The helpdesk will also help people file complaints under the direction of on-duty staff.
Manjunath Kakkalameli, a district court lawyer, said, even though the virtual hearing took place during the pandemic, there would be a help desk available to help citizens. Section (3) of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act 2016 requires the authorities to introduce an online system for submitting project registration applications.
The demand for duplex house for sale in Bangalore has increased at a fast pace. The outbreak of the pandemic has made the average Indian citizen realize the value of owning a home, especially in major cities like Bangalore. People are increasingly choosing larger homes, like a duplex or 3 BHK apartment, to accommodate a specialized workspace within the living space. As work from home is becoming the new norm, people want a home that has dedicated space that can be used as a workspace without any hassle. As a result more and more home buyers, especially working professionals, intend to shift their decision to Duplex home.
Apart from apartments, Bangalore is also experiencing an increased interest of buyers in independent houses for investment purposes. As people turn towards more open spaces, especially due to the inability to go out at will, the demand for independent houses has also increased in the city. With the change in priorities, the trend towards duplex houses is likely to continue for a long time and for a significant portion of sales in Bangalore. Duplexes can be attractive because they cost more than a single-family home.
So, if you are looking for a duplex house for sale in Bangalore, read this article. We have discussed some tips, pros, and cons of buying a duplex home/apartment in Bangalore.
What is a Duplex House?
The duplex is a structure consisting of two separate family units. The two units share a common central wall but have separate entrance doors. Typically, a duplex home in Bangalore has a kitchen, a dining room, and two apartment blocks located side by side or on two floors with separate entrances. Although there are two floors, they are sold together and owned by the same person. A duplex house for sale in Bangalore usually has a kitchen, living room, and bedrooms on the lower floor, and a master bedroom on the upper floor.
The owner of a duplex house can rent out both or a single unit as well. It is mainly connected by an internal staircase. They are good investment opportunities and offer several advantages over apartments or villas. They provide a life experience similar to what you find in a home.
Different type of duplex home in Bangalore-
A duplex house can consist of apartment blocks designed side by side or on two floors. They are usually of 3 types and available in the following categories:
Standard duplex:– This is a two-story house, where the first floor is connected to the second floor by a staircase. On the ground floor there is a living room and a kitchen, and on the upper floors there are bedrooms and children rooms.
Low rise duplex:- This type has large balconies and a ceiling on the second floor. It is usually built in a smaller area compared to other types of duplex houses.
Low or Ground duplex:- These are houses built on the ground floors of the apartments, where the lower floors have a garden and contain bedrooms. The upper floor consists of a living room and a kitchen. This type of house is ideal for homeowners who prefer gardens.
Some best localities to buy a duplex home in Bangalore!
Bangalore has always been an attractive destination for both home buyers and developers. With lucrative options and bespoke budgets, the city is also one of the most popular cities for duplex homes. Some of the best localities to buy a duplex house in Bangalore are:
Tips before you consider a Duplex house for sale in Bangalore-
Cost of the House- Generally Duplexes cost more than single-family homes. Hence, you not only have to pay a higher percentage for the down payment, but the overall cost itself will be higher. So ensure you have enough capital to pay for this extra cost. So if you are planning to buy or rent a duplex house with many rooms, it will be very expensive.
Size or Layout- The number of bedrooms on each floor completely depends on the size of the house. If you buy a larger duplex, you get more rooms, and if you buy a smaller one, you get relatively fewer rooms. You can plan your duplex layout based on the number of rooms you need. Typically, a small two-story home has a living room, hall, and kitchen on the first floor and a bedroom on the second floor. The best thing is that you can customize the duplex to suit your needs and requirements.
Privacy- When you buy a duplex house and live on the same side (either down or up). Your tenants can come to you at any time with questions or concerns about your rental property. You can hear them through walls and they can potentially hear you. In simple words, a duplex house in Bangalore has less privacy.
Privacy/Confidentiality:- Everyone wants to live in a big house and more space and who doesn’t like a big space. A duplex house promises total comfort for its residents. The house plan has advanced features and large spaces that can include outdoor gardens.
Rental income opportunity:- One of the houses in the duplex can be rented out easily. This is especially beneficial if you have purchased a property on credit or loan. Since the rent you receive can be used to pay off the loan. The duplex house has a good resale value and appreciates faster, since the two units are well equipped with separate rooms and entrances.
Suitable for two families:- Duplex is a good option if you want to stay with your family, such as your grandparents. You can let your family or friends stay with you in one of the two units. Sometimes duplex house for sale in Bangalore are much more affordable compared to a single-family luxury home having same bedrooms and carpet area.
Share facilities easily:- You probably do not have access to facilities that are common in residential complexes, such as a tennis court or swimming pool. However living in a duplex means you only have to share the amenities and common space with some peoples, and not a whole group of people.
Office or work space:- With the trend of work from home, more and more home buyers are looking for a house which can provide them an additional space. For those buyers, duplex is a perfect option to consider. In a duplex house you have enough rooms which can used for your work or office space.
Disadvantages of buying a duplex home-
Maintenance responsibility:- As the owner of 2 floors the owner has to check the maintenance and repair work. If duplexes are not managed professionally, they may not guarantee you enjoyment and comfort.
Problem with tenants:- The relationship between landlord and tenant is delicate. If you share a property with another family, perhaps tenants, this can affect your privacy, which in some cases can cause controversy. This applies to any rental, be it a duplex or an apartment, it can be difficult to have an uninteresting neighbor. Understanding this will help you set expectations and hopefully help you avoid negative situations.
Sharing can be an issue:- In case of duplex house for sale in Bangalore, you are likely to share your yard and other amenities with your neighbor. This can be a problem if your neighbor uses too much of these areas or does not respect your space. So, it is best to consider all of these aspects when renting a duplex.
Conclusion-
Duplex houses are more common in areas where there is a significant area of land. Most Indian cities have made room for skyscrapers due to the limited availability of land. Southern cities, especially parts of Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Kerala have duplex houses. These houses are suitable for roommates and families living in the same house who need a home-like environment. Duplex home in Bangalore also sometimes more affordable than single-family homes. So, they can be a smart way to live in a good area for less money.
About 1,824 residential projects in the state were declared as “expired” due to exceeding completion dates set by the Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA).
These projects will now require 51% of the buyer’s consent to ensure that appropriate completion dates are extended. 103 of these projects were completed on time in 2017, 541 next year and 1,180 in 2019.
According to an official, many projects were not completed, even after a one-year extension under section 6 of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act. “All of these projects will now require the consent of 51% of the buyers in accordance with Section 7 (3) of the Act”.
Developers are now restricted to promotions-
Due to the Act, developers of these projects are prohibited from selling, advertising, or promoting them before applying for an extension. Of the 1,824 projects listed by MahaRERA as overdue or expired, 350 project renewals have been submitted. However applications of these projects are currently pending or under scrutiny.
MahaRERA has extended the deadline to September for projects that were supposed to be completed in March. “The rest of the projects had deadlines before 2020 year, when the pandemic hit,” a MahaRERA spokesman said. A majority of the projects are based in Pune, Mumbai, Thane and Raigad.
An additional 1,500 projects may be under the scanner since their deadline expired in March 2021. Developers of these projects may now benefit from a one-year renewal under RERA Section 6.
Strong message to arrogant developers-
The developers felt that the authorities should make decisions appropriately as the market was down and there were difficulties in getting documents on time.
Anuj Puri, Anarock Property Consultants chairman said, the MahaRERA’s decision was a strong signal for arrogant developers who were postponing projects. “Home buyers have been waiting to gain possession of projects for the past three years. The last year was unique as the pandemic resulted in disruptions in the supply chain and inaccessibility of buildings. The year 2020 should be considered as an exception.”
Credai Maharashtra President Sunil Furde said, “MahaRERA was right to point out the status of unfinished projects. However, many projects remain “unfinished” for technical reasons. The authorities need to consider and evaluate this aspect as well. In addition, the projects for Credai members listed on the portal were completed on time. The “completion certification” for these projects has been received from municipal corporations before the registered dates. There are projects that have been completed, but completion certificates were received later.”
Developers who collect payments from home buyers without entering into a construction or sale contract are in violation of the TNRERA Act, the state property regulator has determined.
Tamil Nadu Real Estate Regulatory Authority, in a recent order noted that partial payments with “expression of interest” with a promise of refund/repayment were misleading and were intended to circumvent legal proceedings.
The complaint concerns “The Goodwood Residence” in Cenotaph Road area of Chennai, developed by Cenotaph Developers LLP and Olympia Tech Park Chennai Pvt. Ltd.
The complainant’s or buyer documentation stated that Rs 3.63 crore had been paid to developers. It was a part of a “non-binding expression of interest” for the purchase of an apartment in a housing project in 2016. A year later, the complainant/buyer decided to withdraw from the project and demanded compensation from the developer.
The developer after deduction of almost Rs 12.8 lakh returned only Rs 3.5 crore. The developer returned Rs 3.5 crore after deduction of almost Rs 12.8 lakhs as service taxes. However the complainant/buyer filed a complaint to TNRERA and demanded a refund of the amount withheld.
In statements, the developers rejected the allegations, declaring that the claim was prima facie not maintainable for want of jurisdiction.
Collected 80% amount without entering into sales agreement
TNRERA, after listening to the views of both parties, said that developers charged about 80% of the cost without entering into a sales or construction agreement. This is a clear violation of Article 13 of the RERA Act. In 2016, the developers received two cheques of Rs 95 lakhs from the complainant as “expressions of interest”. G. Saravanan, TNRERA Judge said that the receipt of the payment with the promise of compensation was intended to circumvent the legal procedure.
Furthermore, the developers failed to demonstrate that they provided taxable services to the complainants, which was registered with the tax authorities in the service for the implementation of the specified payment in relation to the project. The complainant thus is entitled to a deductible amount together with an interest rate of 10.2% in accordance with the order of the real estate regulator’s.
All allottees in Noida will now be able to request course completion certificates online. In addition, allottees in all categories can independently assess the breach of the building plan rules and pay interest or compounding fees to the Noida Authority online.
Until now, the Authority has only processed online applications of industrial and residential allottees. And to date, over 1,600 Noida allottees have applied for completion certificates through the online platform. On Tuesday, the Authority expanded its online services to all recipients, including commercial, group and institutional housing, options will be available to users from Wednesday.
Officials said there are currently only 21 requests for completion certificates due with the authority and the rest have been disposed of.
According to a representative from the Authority. “Either a completion certificate was issued, or the allottees were asked to submit pending documents to receive it. Currently, only 21 out of 1,626 applications from us are awaiting processing.”
Certificate issued with a digital signature
CEO Ritu Maheshwari said, “It can take up to 90 days to dispose of an application for issuing completion certificate. It is issued online with a digital signature and the applicant does not have to visit the office of the Noida authority.”
“Message alerts will be sent to the allottee registered mobile number at each step. Applicants who have submitted the necessary documents will be notified so that the application remains pending via text messages.”
While residential plot owners have minor formalities to obtain a certificate of completion, 30 to 35 documents must be submitted to other types of plots. These documents contain certificates for no objection from the pollution and fire department. Certificates related to elevator safety, building construction, labour cess registration and rainwater supply.
Before issuing a completion certificate, the authority will review the infringement reported by the allottee. And the original plan, which was approved before a group of planning officials, sent a team to visit the site and see if all procedures were followed.
On Monday, Nirmala Sitharaman, Finance Minister of India, announced a Rs 6 lakh crore National Monetisation Pipeline (NMP). This will unleash the value of infrastructure assets in all sectors, from power to railways and roads. NMP indicates assets and asset classes under various infrastructure ministries that will generate revenue over a period of time.
The center plans to monetize properties worth about Rs 15,000 crore. This includes several residential colonies in the country’s capital and eight ITDC hotels as part of the National Monetization Pipeline (NMP). Seven colony renovation projects were planned during the NMP period.
In the ‘urban real estate assets’ category under NMP. The government has identified revenue generation from seven colonies to be reconstructed, as well as the construction of residential / commercial properties on a 240 hectare land in Ghitorni, Delhi. Government is also planning to monetize eight hotels of ITDC through several routes.
Redevelopment of Colonies-
According to a latest document prepared by Niti Aayog, the real estate in cities has a revenue potential of about Rs 15,000 crore during the financial year 2022-25. The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) owns and manages the land through the Land Resources and Development Office (L&DO).
In this category, the government has identified the renovation of seven General Pool Residential Accommodation (GPRA) areas in Delhi. These seven areas are located in Netaji Nagar, Naoroji Nagar, Srinivaspuri, Sarojini Nagar, Mohammadpur, Kasturba Nagar, and Tyagraj Nagar. The total estimated investment in the reconstruction of these seven colonies is about Rs 32,276 crore.
The center has also identified the construction of residential/commercial units on a 240 hectare site in Ghitorni, Delhi. The project consists of 8000 GPRA units and 3000 units for migrant construction workers. The estimated capital for this project is Rs 15,000 crore.
“The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) owns and manages the land through the Land Resources and Development Office (L&DO), according to the Niti Aayog report.
PPP Model for redevelopment
Further the Niti Aayog report said, “The PPP model is suggested for the redevelopment of such GPRA projects cross-subsidized through the sale/lease of commercial BUAs (built-up areas).” “The proposed projects are real estate projects that involve mixed-use of vacant lots/old plots in excellent locations in Delhi-NCR. These include the development of residential and commercial office complexes in one of the most privileged areas of the city through a self-financing mechanism.
Considering the privileged location and attractive commercial potential of the project, Niti Aaayog recommended that these projects should be developed with the participation of the private sector. According to the report, this will not only improve business and operational efficiency, it also provides an initial/periodic review of the authorities / Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning.
According to the PPP-based model, the entire plot area for such projects must be transferred to an SPV owned by the authority. With the necessary change of land use, etc when necessary.
Monetization of 8 Major Hotels of ITDC
The Indian Tourism Development Corporation (ITDC) is administered by the Ministry of Tourism. The eight hotels selected for monetization are, Hotel Samrat, New Delhi; Hotel Ashok, New Delhi; Hotel Kalinga, Bhubaneshwar; Hotel Pondicherry, Puducherry; Hotel Anandpur Sahib, Rupnagar; Hotel Jammu Ashok, Jammu; Hotel Nilachal, Puri; and Hotel Ranchi, Ranchi.
“Projects which are pre-obtained by the Authority and housed in the SPV require multiple statutory clearances. The SPV then auctioned under the PPP mechanism through a transparent competitive bidding system, the report states.
The Hospitality Assets section of the report states that, “Total 8 ITDC hotel assets were considered for revenue generation/monetization in the financial year 2022 to 2025.”
“Long-term leases, sales and long-term OMT (operation, maintenance and transfer) can be explored as potential revenue-generating models that can be identified on a case-by-case basis through detailed asset-level due diligence.” the report added.
The Maharashtra town Planning Authority, City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO), has begun geotagging of plots in Navi Mumbai as part of its various sales plans.
This decision will help buyers, and also a step towards the efficient digitization of land records in the scattered southeastern suburbs of India’s commercial capital. Thus, Navi Mumbai became one of the first major cities in the country to begin the process of digitizing cadastral registers, given the uncertainty of ownership and property rights. Most of the lands in India are the subject of legal disputes and might take a century for courts to resolve these cases.
Sanjay Mukherjee, VC & MD, CIDCO, said. “Land parcels geotagging helps to create a transparent mechanism and provide applicants with accurate location information and other related factors”. “By having the correct links to the database, which will be updated real-time. Also the potential for inaccuracies and deceptive information can be avoided.”
Eliminates Unauthorized Construction–
According to a report by McKinsey India, developers are also having trouble obtaining financial assistance. As they cannot offer land without a clear title as collateral for loans. Therefore, most new housing units are built on land already owned by developers or an insider who knows how to speed up the bureaucratic process of verifying ownership.
Ashok Chhajer, CMD, Arihant Superstructures said. “Land Geotagging helps in resolving several problems, including illegal construction on land, which can be tracked and stopped even before completion.” ‘Even the Panvel municipal corporation started working on it, using drones and making a map of the land parcels. It will also attract more investment from various financial institutions, including global organizations as well.”
Optimization of this process and revision of the law on land ownership should stimulate competition in construction. Competitive developers expected to increase their productivity and offer lower house prices. This also helps India’s stagnant construction market to expand significantly.
Payment Deadline Extended–
CIDCO regularly sold residential and used land under various schemes. These areas will be demarcated and fenced. Similarly, each plot will have a panel showing details such as plot area, number, node, and a barcode as well. The panel will help buyers know the exact location, boundaries, and area of the land they choose.
The Town Planning Authority sold land in accordance with the provisions of the Navi Mumbai Land Disposal (Amendment) Regulations 2008. In addition, CIDCO also decided to extend the payment deadline to three months for the first installment and 10 months for the second installment in worthy cases. This extension only applies to buyers in verified cases, together with late payment charges. 2008 Navi Mumbai Land Disposal (Amendment) Regulations have a clause to revoke the land transferred to the applicant if the tenderer is unable to pay the fee, even after renewal.
On Tuesday Yashpal Garg, CEO of Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB) issued an executive order stating that board officials would not inspect a dwelling during transfer time unless a notice of violation of the building was sent to the allottee.
Board CEO Yashpal Garg said: “Based on the significant number of inquiries during public hearings, there is a need to explain aspects regarding inspections by CHB officials during the transfer of dwelling units. In cases where building abuse / violation is not reported on the basis of the available record. The information provided by the applicant in the application form of transfer of dwelling units is used together with the declaration of the transferor and the transferee. In all these cases, the CHB does not carry out a new inspection at the time of the transfer of units.
However, he clarified: “The applicant/transferee is responsible for concealing the facts of the declaration regarding violations and irregularities, and the necessary actions are taken in accordance with the law. In addition, the transferee is liable for any construction infringements that existed at the time of the transfer or committed subsequently.”
Garg also said that in cases where reports of violations were available to CHB, declarations or affidavits of no violations are not accepted and CHB officials will again conduct an inspection.
Can apply for Joint Inspection-
The board also issued injunctions to protect the rights of innocent buyers. The executive order states. “It was observed that the transfer of the unit was in some cases permitted on the basis of affidavits. However officials found that there were subsequently some violations/irregularities. When lawsuits were filed against such irregularities, recipients/transferees felt cheated by the transferor due to erroneous affidavits, while such irregularities existed during the transfer of the housing unit. According to the CHB standard, the existing owner/tenant (transferee) is responsible for remedying violations. Otherwise it will have consequences like cancellation of transfer, etc.
To overcome this situation and protect innocent buyers, the Chandigarh Housing Board has provided an additional mechanism whereby the transferor party and the recipient can jointly request inspection from the CHB and obtain a certificate of no violation at that time. For this purpose, the transferor (current owner) can submit a joint application along with a commission of Rs 5,000 at CHB’s reception.”
Garg added that they issued similar orders on August 27, 2019, still many property dealers deceiving innocent buyers, so new orders were issued on Tuesday. “In the event of a breach of instructions of inspection of August 2019, strict measures will be taken against the CHB officers involved.”
The Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority has stated that a simple conditional permit to convert an agricultural land into non-agricultural non-urban areas without providing any infrastructure can only qualify as an ongoing project and therefore must be registered under RERA.
A permit to convert a plot of land from agricultural to non-agricultural is only the beginning of the process and ends when tehsildar registers, that all imposed conditions are met and constitutes a “completion certificate”, MahaRERA explained.
Dealing in “plotted development” outside urban areas, MahaRERA instructed a developer to immediately register a project on August 10. It was found that the conditions imposed over a nearly decade-old nod for non-agriculture (NA) use by the Raigad collector remained pending.
No Advertisement before registration-
Ajoy Mehta, MahaRERA chairperson, said, the actual nomenclature of the completion certificate means that the premises are finished and suitable for human habitation. The use of Non Agricultural land starts when tehsildar corrects that all conditions are met.
Mehta ordered the developer not to advertise, sell or approve non-agricultural bookings in a project called Amarai in Kolad for sale. Until it is registered under Section 3 of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act (RERA). He also imposed a fine of Rs 50,000 for non-compliance with the provision of the law and failure to register an ongoing project. “The amenities that were promised and those listed in the NA judgment were not delivered. So, the property remains deprived of the amenities to allow a buyer to use it. Therefore, the project has no CC until the date,” said the order.
Mandatory to give Amenities stated in agreement-
Last year, the Amrai Kolad Plot Owners Welfare Association filed a complaint against Sai Developers, and others. According to their lawyer Zaman Ali, in May 2012, the Raigad district collector gave conditional NA permission to the developer to build infrastructure facilities, including roads, storm drains, sewerage, water supply and open space development within two years. Shortly after receiving permission, the developer started advertising the project, promising infrastructure services and a possession period of development costs of Rs 50,000 per plot. The complaint is that despite the payment “the project remained unfinished”.
After RERA went into effect on May 1, 2017, in October 2017, the developer announced new announcements for the remaining unsold plots offering services including the pool. But if infrastructure and services are not provided, the project will fall under RERA as an ongoing project that requires registration, the association said.
The developer, through his lawyer Tanmay Ketkar, argued that the project was completed in 2014, met all the conditions of NA and all plots were sold. So this is not an ongoing project, and the complaint is a “mala fide” harassment.
“In case of planned development, it is “imperative” that all agreed amenities should be completed, said Mehta.

However, the market share for 2 BHK units is really high compared to 1 and 3 BHK units. 1 BHK units are much smaller in size and account for about 18% of the market share. The area is dominated by 2 BHK units with 39% availability, followed by 3 BHK units with 33%. About 38% of Yamuna Expressway projects launched in the price range of Rs 3,000 to Rs 3,500 per square foot. About 18% of the projects in the price range of Rs 2,000 to 3,000 per square foot and Rs 3,500 to 4,000 square foot each. So, these are some of the reasons to invest in Yamuna Expressway.
On Friday, the Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA) gave builders a six-month relaxation to complete projects. Authority has accepted the demand to apply the force majeure clause due to the second wave. This is the second time during the pandemic that the authorities have provided such assistance to developers in the state.
“All projects registered by MahaRERA for which a completion date, revised completion date or extended completion date expire April 15, 2021 or later. The validity period for such projects is extended by six months, authority said in a notification.
Further authority said it would issue revised project registration certificates and revised timelines for such projects as soon as possible. It also made it clear that the renewal will not apply to projects that were to be completed by April 15th.
The notification said that on April 13, the state government issued instructions to restrict the movement of people due to another wave of infection, adding that the wave was more deadly. The lockdowns halted the construction activities due to labor shortages and impact on the movement of building materials. A six-month period of “force majeure” has been announced from April 15 to October 14.
Other authorities should also follow same process
The order was issued to help the government control the damage caused by COVID-19. Also to ensure that the implementation of the project is not affected.
The conditions or time limits for the implementation of projects that expire at any time during the force majeure period will be automatically extended till the expiration date. However the rights of allottees will not get affected through the order. The notification said that an association of promoters had presented themselves before the authority for help in view of another disruption ravaging the industry.
Developer Niranjan Hiranadani, National president of realty industry body Naredco, said, “This is a step in the right direction and the sector hopes that other authorities besides MahaRERA will follow the same thought process and provide the same relief.”
The Uttar Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority (UP-RERA) has decided to grant an additional nine months of registration extension for projects with first registration ending December 31, 2021 or earlier. In the NCR region this extension is of nine months and for six months in a non-NCR region.
The decision was made to remove restrictions and facilitate the development of stagnant real estate projects. This will speed up construction and help the allottees of these projects deliver their homes within a reasonable time frame.
However, the extension is subject to the authority’s close monitoring of these projects and will be granted under certain conditions.
If the project completion date is after 31 December 2021. The developer will be instructed to speed up development work and complete the project within the existing registration period. These extensions can only be granted at the request of the promoter of the project, accompanied by an affidavit. The affidavit states that the developer must complete the project during this extended registration period. Also provided that the developer presents a compelling financial plan from project financing or from own sources to complete the project.
Authorities said giving a little extra time to complete projects would help complete a series of projects that would result in a large number of pending home buyers being handed over for delivery.
Sign MOU if developer is not in state to complete project
Before taking any decision on the promoter request, the authority first checks the physical progress of the project. The project must be verified through its technical division to ensure the authenticity of the promoter’s commitment in this regard.
In the event, the promoter is unable to complete the project during the additional extended registration period. Then he needs to enter into an agreement or memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Association of Allottees (AOA). In addition, he also needs to contact the authorities for additional time to complete the project in accordance with the terms agreed between AOA and the developer.
The authority, after receiving such a joint request from the developer and the AOA, makes an appropriate decision to allow the developer to complete the rest of the project.
The Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA) has banned the sale of a total of 644 residential projects in Maharashtra. Several units were stopped due to late completion and delivery, with Pune accounting for almost 30%.
According to data released by MahaRERA, most of the blacklisted project developers are smaller players with less than 100 units per project. Apart from some projects of well-known developers in the region most of them belong to small developers. Approximately 85% of blacklisted projects had an average of 70 units in each project. Such a blacklisting means that the project cannot be advertised, marketed or sold in any condition.
The list also consists some of the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) projects promoted by the state government.
Most apartments are sold!
Anarock real estate analysts report that 80% of the apartments in 644 projects have already been sold. According to MahaRERA, 16% of the projects were to be completed in 2017 and the rest were to be completed in 2018. Due to market size, Mumbai topped the list with 274 blacklisted projects, or about 43% of the total, followed by Pune with 29%. The rest are in smaller markets like Aurangabad, Nagpur, Kolhapur, Nashik, and others.
A developer in the region states the condition of small or new developers. He said “ the smaller developers are increasingly struggling with RERA compliance, e.g. proof of capital and due diligence for land. Banks, NBFCs and housing finance companies are often reluctant to lend capital to such agents for fear of low or inadequate securitization.
Anuj Puri, the chairman of Anarock, said, this move by MahaRERA is a strong signal for disobedient developers who are constantly delaying projects. Homebuyers have been waiting to take over home ownership since 2017 or 2018. In the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) there are at least 496 projects (launched in 2014 or earlier) that have been delayed or stalled so far, while in Pune almost 171 projects have been delayed or stopped.
On Friday, developer Supertech said it will deliver about 8,460 apartments to buyers by December 2021. More than 16,000 units in the ongoing projects in Noida, Greater Noida and Meerut by 2023. Supertech has a total of 13 projects in the NCR region. Four projects are located in Greater Noida, five projects in Noida, two projects in Meerut and Yamuna Expressway. According to Supertech, they are planning to hand over about 16,041 properties from December 2021 to June 2023.
The announcement came two days after Supertech met with UP-RERA officials who reviewed the developer’s pending projects. Supertech Group said in a meeting with UP RERA that it will deliver around 8,463 units by December 2021. About 7,347 units by December 2022 and 231 units thereafter for their various projects in Uttar Pradesh.
RK Arora, Supertech Group President said, the delay was due to two unprecedented waves of the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected all real estate projects. The Group will implement these projects through internal accruals, and the group has a positive net worth to meet its financing needs.
Every Homebuyer should get a home
Projects that completed and ready to deliver include Crown Towers, North Eye, Supernova, Romano, and ORB in Noida. Eco Village I, Eco Village II (Phase I), Eco Village II (Phase II) and Eco Village III in Greater Noida. Upcountry and Golf Country along Yamuna Expressway, Meerut Green Village, and Meerut Sports City.
UP RERA chairman Rajive Kumar said, RERA’s goal is to ensure that all buyers get their home on specified time. We occasionally check the status of all projects and this month met 60 promoters who have participated in about 150 projects in the state. “Supertech projects have also been reviewed and verified in relation to RERA orders. This group announcement was part of RERA’s work.”
According to the schedule provided by the real estate company, 8,463 units will be delivered in December 2021. About 2,308 units by March 2022, 1,132 by June 2022, 3,907 by December 2022 and 231 in 2023. Many of these projects in Noida and Greater Noida have long been delayed, as Supertech often faces protests from home buyers and harsh legal orders.

According to real estate associations Naredco and Credai, the completion time of apartments in different phases of construction in Delhi-NCR could be extended up to two years. The impact is primarily from two consecutive waves of the pandemic and the consequent disruptions in financing and employment.
It also prolongs the wait for the delayed apartments for a longer time. According to a recent survey by real estate consulting firm Anarock, there are more than 3 lakhs of such apartments in the major cities of Delhi-NCR. Apartments are considered delayed if they were launched in 2014 or earlier. Construction started after this period is in progress.
Delivery times for “ongoing” projects will also be affected. Completion time for more than 3 lakh apartments in the NCR may be affected by a two-year delay due to two waves of Covid-19. Real estate agencies Credai and Naredco say buyers and regulators should be ready to face at least a two-year delay. According to Anarock, around 50% of the delayed apartments are located in Greater Noida alone.
Relief package may help to boost construction
Real estate companies cited labor and supply chain problems during the pandemic as cause for the delay. The lack of cash flow also affected the construction work. This was reported by R.K. Arora, CMD of Supertech and President of Naredco, UP. “Since March 2020, project implementation has developed very slowly due to labor shortages, raw material shortages and related problems. Delivery time is delayed by approximately two years.”
Pankaj Bajaj, president of Credai (Delhi-NCR), said, Real estate is one of the worst hit sectors as a result most projects are likely to be delayed by about two years. We hope for relaxation to help us tackle this problem. In addition, to give construction a boost, the government should announce a relief package and provide last-mile funding through banks.
Additional six months registration validity
Prashant Thakur, head of research at Anarock said, According to a survey by Anarock, about 3.29 lakh flats launched in the NCR region in 2014 or earlier have now been stuck or delayed. The pandemic is one of the major reasons for the delay. All were to be delivered by June 2021. 50% of these units are in Greater Noida, Noida has about 16%, Gurgaon has about 12%, and Ghaziabad has about 10%. The remaining 12% are in Delhi, Faridabad and Bhiwadi.
UP-Rera member Balvinder Kumar said the solution was invented. Last year, we gave builders a six-month relaxation or waiver for registration restrictions when the pandemic broke out. According to current rules, all registrations can be valid for one year from the expiration date. We decided to extend the additional six months validity extension to registration of builders.
P. Murthy, Tamil Nadu Minister for commercial Taxation and Business Registration held a review meeting with registration officials to discuss the possibilities of increasing income through property registration after the second wave of Covid-19. Last year the land registrations were affected for four months during the first wave of Covid-19.
During the meeting, the focus was on the measures to be taken to increase revenue. As the resumption of the work of the registration offices took place faster than in 2020.
The pandemic fiscal year 2020-21 recorded revenue of Rs. Rs.10,643 crores from stamp duty and registration fee between April 2020 and March 2021. Revenue decreased by approx. 3.6% in the corresponding financial year 2019-2020, when Rs 11,028 crore was generated as revenue.
According to the sources, officials were ordered to ensure that temple properties under the jurisdiction of the Hindu Department of Religious and Charitable endowments department, and poramboke land are not registered under Section 22-A of the Registration Act (Tamil Nadu Amendment Act). The law makes it easier to re-register land if in a previous land transaction they were called “house site”. The sources added that the return of documents on the same day was also considered to stop any delays. Measures to prevent staff from arriving late at the office and the newly opened grievance control room were also reviewed.
According to the official statement, the meeting was attended by the Registration secretary B Jothi Nirmalasamy, the General Registrar MP Sivanarul and senior officials of the registration department.
The decision was taken in light of the fact that the developer did not carry out a large number of its projects on time specified by UP-RERA. They also did not comply with a large number of orders from the authorities on complaints from home buyers projects from promoter companies.
The Uttar Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority (UP-RERA) has rejected an application for registration of two proposed Supertech projects under RERA Section 5 with Section 11 (4)(B) and Section 4 (2)(B).
Rejected projects applications are Supertech Golf Country GH01-Phase-1B and Supertech Golf Country GH01-Phase-1A.
Authorities asked the developer for a detailed report on the fulfillment of his orders and a convincing action plan to complete its projects. However, the authorities also decided to give the developer a second chance to apply for registration of the two projects again, after it can largely comply with the authority’s previous orders.
UP-RERA didn’t receive any written or oral responses
During the trial, R.K. Arora, Supertech Chairman, told authorities the company was trying to complete projects as well as enforce government orders.
However, UP-RERA did not find the promoter’s written or oral response satisfactory. The authorities concluded that it would be inconvenient and that it is not proper and not in the interests of home buyers to register the company’s two new projects. The company was unable to complete a large number of its projects already registered with RERA, nor was it able to complete a large number of orders approved by the company’s affected homebuyer’s assistance authority.
UP-RERA chairman, Rajiv Kumar, said, The organizer did not comply with the authorities’ orders and there was no noticeable improvement in the status of unfinished orders at the end of the promoter. They also failed to come up with a convincing action plan to implement their ongoing projects. As a result, a large number of home buyers with the developer forced to approach the authorities with claims for compensation. Not only did the developer fail to speed up its projects, it also did not comply with government orders, further exacerbating the homebuyer’s suffering.
In order to revive stagnant projects in Greater Noida, The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) has announced two policies. These policies can be used by construction companies until 31 August. The decision to propose a restoration and reschedulement policies was taken at a meeting of YEIDA’s Board of Directors on 28 June.
According to the deferral or reshedulement policy, the developer must pay 5% of the amount owed in advance. Once the revised payment plan is established, the developer must pay an additional 5% of the amount due to YEIDA. To restore the canceled land or plot, the developer must pay 10% of the current land premium to the authority.
According to YEIDA officials, all payments must be made till August 31. The applications asking for restoration of land will be discussed at the next board meeting.
For the past four year the developers who took YEIDA’s land to build skyscrapers owed about Rs 4,000 crore to authorities. There are currently 10 public and municipal housing projects in various construction stages in addition to the Jaypee Sports City project near the expressway region. About 16,000 buyers have invested in these projects and are waiting to receive possession. While 12,000 housing units were placed in 10 housing projects. About 5,000 units were offered under the Jaypee Sports City project.
Policies at a glance
Reschedulement Policy– This policy states-
Developers must pay 5% of the amount owed in advance. The remaining 5% will be paid within 30 days of the proposed revised payment schedule.
In case of non-compliance with three installments after taking reschedulement, the lease will be canceled.
Restoration Policy- This policy states-
Restoration charges at the rate of 10% of the prevailing plot premium to be paid. The transfer of the plot is not allowed until the winning bidder receives a proof of completion.
The request for restoration of the plot will be sent before the next board meeting for decision after the payment is made.
Applications must be submitted by August 31st.
Projects don’t have basic amenities-
RK Arora, Uttar Pradesh president of realtor’s body, Naredco,said, Shortly after the filing of the Gajraj case in October 2011, where it was decided that farmers should be paid a compensation of 64.7%. About 700 landowners who had to manage their land in the Yamuna highway area moved to various courts and forums. YEIDA was unable to provide land to developers for four to five years.
For some projects, connections to basic services such as sewerage or electricity were not provided on time.
YEIDA has consistently requested a land premium along with interest. We have asked the UP government to give developers zero-period benefits so that they are exempt from paying interest during the period when they could not take over the land that was provided to them.
No estimate of sold lands-
Arun Vir Singh YEIDA chief executive officer said, Construction companies and Developers must pay a certain amount in advance. We process requests as soon as we receive the minimum amount, and then issue a revised payment schedule for them.
From August 2012, shortly after the commissioning of the 165-kilometer expressway. Private developers began implementing projects in the Greater Noida and Dankaura districts. Between June 2010 and March 2015, 31 developers, including the Jaypee Group, purchased land from YEIDA to build skyscrapers along the road.
But later, many builders left their land or lost it because they were unable to clear dues. The Jaypee Group could also benefit from the restoration policy. Another three developers who have lost their project due to non-payment of fees are also eligible to participate. But payment must be made by August 31st. YEIDA does not currently have an estimate of the number of apartments sold by the three developers.
Several real estate developers and industry associations have called on the government of Uttar Pradesh to develop pragmatic policies for industrial development bodies. The policy is especially for the cities of Noida and Greater Noida, so that they can quickly resolve insolvency projects.
Decisions on multiple projects have been put on hold as the authorities want to be financial lenders, not operational lenders. So they can make an impact and not take commissions on projects that are stuck.
According to the Confederation of Real Estate Developers Associations of India (CREDAI). Approximately 190,000 properties stuck in Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad, worth 1 lakh crore. At least 36 property projects are facing bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings in Greater Noida alone. This has affected about 50,000 home buyers and withheld about Rs 7,000 crore in administration fees.
Investment cycle may resume!
Insisting on interest rates, fines and other fees can ultimately make full settlement plans financially unstable, experts say. In addition, the investment cycle in these areas will be resumed if the established insolvency cases are resolved.
Developers will have to pay around Rs 40,000 crore dues to three different NCR authorities, including Noida, Greater Noida and Yamuna. The dues have been pending since 2010, but given the new interest rate, the amount likely to reduced to Rs 25,000 crore.
According to the CREDAI’s letter, several property developers involved in the insolvency process. The list consists of big and reputed developers including Jaypee Infratech, Amrapali, BPPL, Granite Gate, Subhkamna Buildtech, etc. CREDAI also stated that if development authorities continue to challenge settlement plans in court without applying a pragmatic decision-making structure that addresses the issues described above, it will not only delay the process but ultimately lead to settlement.
Proper policy framework needed
Sahil Vachani, MD and CEO at Max Ventures and Industries Ltd said, “To accelerate the process of insolvency proceedings, in the Greater Noida and Noida area and to cope with the high land dues of industrial development authorities, a pragmatic policy framework is needed. In the absence of such a policy, the restructuring of insolvent corporate debtors is not economically feasible.”
Abhishek Tripathi, managing partner, Sarthak Advocates and Solicitors said, “Authorities like Noida and Greater Noida need to aware of the fact that dues paid to them by developers have the character of an operating debt and make them acting creditors. Past commission fees or dues must reviewed in accordance with a resolution plan approved by the Creditors Committee and the NCLT.”

Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) assured to extend or renew the credit notes offered to developers after the standing committee approved the proposal. From now onwards these notes can be used to pay property taxes, sky sign department tax, water taxes, and road digging charges. The proposed roads and bridges built through this initiative are located in Hadapsar, Kharadi and Mundhwa.
The civic body only allowed credit notes for building permits when they were first approved in the month of January. These notes are provided to road contractors in public-private partnerships. Roads are being built without paying cash to developers, as Pune Municipal Corporation has lost a good chunk of revenue due to the pandemic. The PMC only planned to allow the exchange of these credit notes for the payment of a building permit or charges.
Developers can pay different charges / fees
PMC planned to develop roads and bridges on the basis of public-private partnerships. As part of this initiative, credit certificates issued for the development of facilities. Developers can use these certificates to pay a range of fees. These fees associated with building permits, such as development fees, building permit fees, and surcharges fees.
If land is not available in the PMC, then developers must take it from private landowners using FSI or TDR. To avail these notes the developer should have possession on at least 80% of the land. The PMC said that the credit notes issued in stages depending on the progress of the road works. Developers will be able to spend approximately Rs 200 crore annually via credit notes.
Chairman of the standing committee, Hemant Rasane, said, the sources of income for the civic body is limited for now. We need to find options like credit notes because they can help to boost the development projects.
BJP corporator Mahesh Wable, who gave the supplementary note, said. “In order to encourage the developers, we need to allow different modes of payments through credit notes. This helps to get a good response to the policy.”
As the Covid-19 pandemic has affected the demand for commercial real estate, several real estate agents have turned their commercial projects into residential projects. This year, about 25 commercial projects in Ahmedabad have been transformed into housing schemes.
There is demand for housing and this segment has also provided some cash flow to developers. As a result many developers convert their commercial projects into housing projects. A new reform in the building plans has been approved for 20 commercial projects. These commercial projects comes under Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC). Also five more projects in Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority (AUDA) areas transformed from commercial to residential.
AMC and AUDA added that there were many commercial projects in 2018 and 2019. However the trend completely changed in 2021. Currently, approx. 80% of the building plans, which must be approved by both AMC and AUDA, are for housing projects.
According to some real estate industry experts, work from home, high inventory levels, lets companies hold their expansion. Also the territorial restrictions and lower crowds in showrooms and shopping malls due to Covid-19 have affected the demand for commercial and office space projects. Building plans were revised for three commercial projects in 2018-19, up to seven in 2020. However, in 2021, their number will increase sharply, AMC officials said.
Project location is ideal for residential purpose
Venus Infrastructure, Ahmedabad based real estate company, converted its commercial project behind the Rajpath Club in Bodakdev into a luxury housing project after receiving approval for a revised building plan. Rajesh Waswani, CEO of Venus Infrastructure said, we have invested heavily in our commercial project however the demand for commercial space dropped dramatically after the outbreak of the pandemic. The location of the project has always been suitable for living. So we decided to change our plan and switched to the housing project.
Apartments as well as Showrooms
Chitrak Shah, a city broker, also vice president of CREDAI-Ahmedabad GIHED said,we have transformed our commercial project at the Panjrapole crossroad into a housing project. The project currently offers 3 BHK plus work from home flats as well as showrooms. We revised our plan because there was a good demand for housing units in the area.
Converting commercial units to residential is a smart stepfor now
Balbirsingh Khalsa, national director of industry and logistics and director of the Ahmedabad branch to knight Frank India, said. Converting a commercial project to a housing project whenever possible is a smart step in the right direction.
On the one hand, office vacancy is high, rents are falling, and the prospects for commercial space remain weak due to fear of pandemic. On the other hand, the demand for housing is good and the number of residential units is also very low today. So, for now it makes sense to shift from commercial to residential real estate.
