Final Stretch of “Delhi-Mumbai Expressway” to open from July 11

One of the largest infrastructure projects in Delhi-NCR, the 21km elevated road from the Gurugram-Delhi Expressway to Sohna has finally reached its inauguration stage dated July 11. Nitin Gadkari along with Union minister Rao Inderjit Singh will inaugurate the six-lane Sohna elevated road next Monday. Since the work on 9km stretch of elevated road between Rajiv Chowk and Badshapur finished this week, this entire portion will be opened to commuters in coming days. Remaining portion was already opened for the commuters from April connecting Badshapur and Sohna. Total budget of the project is Rs. 2000 crore and this project will help in providing ease to commuters as the distance between Gurugram and Sohna will be reduced many a times by solving the traffic issues.

With the opening of Delhi-Mumbai expressway, relief will be provided to commuters as signal-free corridor junctions such as Vatika Chowk will be provided to them. Vatika chowk is mostly congested during the peak office hours due to Southern Peripheral Road running adjacent to elevated road in Gurugram. NHAI officials have recently announced two more access points near Subhash Chowk and Jail Road in the city. Apart from the Gurugram-Sohna connection, the elevated road is expected to cut travel time for the 120km journey between Gurugram and Alwar to less than two hours which earlier used to take more than three hours to cover. This route is extremely vital to Delhi-Mumbai Expressway link connecting India’s two largest urban centers via Haryana, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat.

Construction of package 1 of this Delhi-Mumbai Expressway link completed earlier in the budget of Rs. 944 crores and it was opened from the month of April whereas construction of package 2 will cost around Rs. 1000 crores and this part will open from July 11. Construction of package 2 was repeatedly delayed due to pandemic disruptions, ban on construction in NCR during the heavily polluted winter months and issues with shifting existing infrastructure on the route.  Residents are awaiting this project from long time and are relieved that finally the construction is over. They are hopeful that this expressway will resolve traffic congestions, not just on Sohna road but also at intersections like Vatika Chowk.

Over 100 farmhouses demolished on Gurugram outskirts in one year

In fact, in the past one year, the department’s enforcement team has razed more than 100 farmhouses carved out on 200 acres of agricultural land in Sohna, Wazirpur and other areas of the city.

GURUGRAM: With unscrupulous builders targeting the city outskirts to carve out illegal farmhouses amid the pandemic, the department of town and country planning (DTCP) has stepped up its action against such illegal constructions on agricultural land in areas like Sohna and Wazirpur.

In fact, in the past one year, the department’s enforcement team has razed more than 100 farmhouses carved out on 200 acres of agricultural land in Sohna, Wazirpur and other areas of the city.

As per Haryana government policy, the minimum area for low-density farmhouse colonies is 25 acres but many of these developers carved out farmhouses on smaller land without permission from the authorities.

District town planner RS Batth said that the department is now planning to intensify action against such illegal farmhouses and verify the documents of the existing farmhouses in Sohna and other areas.

“Taking advantage of the pandemic and the consequent lockdown when our officials were busy with Covid-related duties, some of these builders not only laid a network of internal roads but also erected electric poles and constructed boundary walls. The builders also wooed prospective buyers by projecting the same as an attractive investment citing their proximity to IGI Airport and the Delhi-Mumbai road corridor,” he said.

When asked about the mushrooming of illegal farmhouses particularly in Sohna, Batth said, “There are mainly three reasons — the land cost is low, then there are already resorts and farmhouses in the area, and the place is scenic and full of greenery.” “Timely action saved a lot of innocent investors from getting duped as these builders were all set to sell one-acre farmhouses on 20-acre land under the name of Nature Valley.”

One of the major demolitions took place on June 8, when some 80 illegal farmhouses, being developed in two colonies of 30-acre each, were demolished in Kiranki village near Westin Sohna resort in Sohna. Similarly, farmhouses were being carved out on a 12-acre land in the Budhera area under the name of Verma farms.

The land located in Gurgaon will be used to develop a high-rise children-centric residential project. The land with a development potential of 21 lakh sq ft will mark Ashiana Housing’s foray in the Gurgaon real estate space. The firm plans to develop over 1200 units—1750 and 1800 sq. ft—over the next 4-5 years.

Ashiana Housing had bought a 22 acre land parcel in sector 93, Gurgaon from Ramprastha Group in a deal valued at over Rs 200 crore.

The land located in Gurgaon will be used to develop a high-rise children-centric residential project.

The land with a development potential of 21 lakh sq ft will mark Ashiana Housing’s foray in the Gurgaon real estate space.

The firm plans to develop over 1200 units—1750 and 1800 sq. ft—over the next 4-5 years.

“The acquisition has been funded through internal accruals and issuance of debenture to International Finance Corporation and bank debt,” said Varun Gupta of Ashiana Housing.

He, however, refused to share the exact deal value.

Real estate consultancy firm Shearwater Ventures brokered the deal.

The deal holds significance as most funds and builders are now opting for a joint development model to acquire assets rather than investing in land.

Ashiana Housing, a leading player in the development of senior citizen projects, currently has around 4 mn sft of projects under development across Chennai, Jamshedpur, Jaipur and NCR. The firm also has 6 mn sft of projects in the pipeline.

“The sales had slowed down in April and May but we see a revival starting June,” said Gupta.

Gurugram development body will get over Rs 350 crore per year from stamp duty

Author: +91-7765906259
Categories: Gurgaon Property News & Real Estate Updates

The department of urban local bodies had approved the proposal for sharing of stamp duty charges between GMDA and the municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) in April this year.

GURUGRAM: The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) is likely to get over Rs 350 crore from stamp duty charges every year. This comes as a huge relief to the cash-strapped government agency.

The department of urban local bodies had approved the proposal for sharing of stamp duty charges between GMDA and the municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) in April this year.

While GMDA was earlier estimated to receive Rs 250 crore from MCG, it is now set to receive stamp duty charges from the Municipal Corporation of Manesar (MCM) as well. A proposal in this regard is already underway. MCM officials said just like MCG, the rules would be applicable to MCM as well.

“We had estimated receipt of Rs 250 crore from MCG alone. Now with MCM in the picture, we expect Rs 350 crore to Rs 400 crore from stamp duty charges annually,” said a senior GMDA official. He added that the charges will be paid to GMDA with effect from April 1, 2021.

The metropolitan authority had first written to the state government over splitting of stamp duty charges with MCG in 2019. A notification in this regard was finally issued in April this year. Prior to the notification, MCG collected 2% stamp duty charges.

The proposal had met with opposition from the municipal councillors and mayor Madhu Azad, who stated that the move would impact the development works in the municipal areas. Chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar, however, approved the proposal during a GMDA meeting last year.

The money from the stamp duty charges will help GMDA in bridging the gap between its expenditure and income for the current fiscal year. The budget for the fiscal year 2021-22 has been estimated at Rs 1,848 crore, whereas the expected receipts for the year are around Rs 1,200 crore — a shortfall of around Rs 600 crore.

“The collection of external development charges (EDC) and stamp duty charges together should be able to fill the gap. We are depending on the state government for the remaining amount,” the GMDA official said.

In order to make the civic body more independent, chief minister Khattar had also announced earlier this year that GMDA as well as the Faridabad metropolitan authority would be gettingEDC directly from the developers, thereby eliminating delays. All the EDC charges for Gurugram and Faridabad will go to GMDA and FMDA, respectively.

Gurugram: Suncity residents struggle to get rainwater pits operational

Categories: Gurgaon Property News & Real Estate Updates

The residents complained that the Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon (MCG) had initiated the construction of four RWH pits in the colony in September 2019, but the contractor left the work mid-way which is causing a lot inconvenience for them.

GURUGRAM: At a time when depleting underground water is a major concern in the city, residents of Suncity are struggling to get four rainwater harvesting pits (RWH) operational since last one year.

The residents complained that the Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon (MCG) had initiated the construction of four RWH pits in the colony in September 2019, but the contractor left the work mid-way which is causing a lot inconvenience for them. They alleged that several complaints have been made to the concerned officials, but it has fallen on deaf ears.

Kusum Sharma, a member of the RWA said, “The contractor has left the work unfinished and since then we are trying to get this completed. Two half constructed RWH pits are in the greenbelt area and the rest is in two parks of the colony. This is really sad that on one hand the administration is creating awareness of the RWH and spreading the word to conserve water but on the other hand the reality is very much different. We are wasting precious rain water around 10 lakh litres.”

MCG took over Suncity Township in April 2019. The residents complained that the huge dug pits are left open which could pose serious risk to their safety, especially children playing in the park. Besides, the stagnated water in the pits has also become a breeding ground of mosquitoes, the residents said.

Developers Focus on Low-Rise Development in Gurgaon, Faridabad

Author: +91-7765906259
Categories: Gurgaon Property News & Real Estate Updates

Gurgaon and Faridabad will see an investment of nearly Rs 7,000 crore in construction of independent floors as many developers plan to focus on low-rise buildings following the launch of a government scheme.

Developers including DLF, M3M, Birla Estates, BPTP, Trehan Group and ILC group have applied for the licence under the Haryana government’s Deen Dayal Jan Awas Yojna (DDJAY), which allows developers to construct up to four floors and sell them independently.

“Gurgaon has always focused on luxury housing, with nothing much to offer to people looking for below Rs 2 crore property. With about 20,000 independent floors on offer in next one year by these developers, Gurgaon will offer properties in mid-segment also, as these independent floors will be available in the range of Rs 50 lakh to Rs 1.75 crore,” said Anckur Srivasttava, chairman, GenReal Property Advisers.

Developers say high-rises take five-seven years to monetise and that amid the ongoing liquidity crisis, the real estate sector is looking for quick monetisation of assets.

“However, developers need to be careful as there could be an oversupply. It will not be a cakewalk and the developer has to target the right buyer. In Gurgaon, people were unable to take the credit link subsidy scheme, so developers offering a floor within Rs 45 lakh will attract buyers,” said Srivasttava.

DLF, the country’s largest real estate developer, had said in its quarterly that it planned low-rise developments including independent floors and plotted developments in some parts of Gurgaon.

Of the total upcoming planned development, 44% will be plotted and low-rise.

“We have planned independent floors at three locations in Gurgaon and Faridabad with an investment of Rs 500 crore,” said Amit Raj Jain, senior vice president, BPTP.

Real estate developer M3M plans to invest Rs 4,000 crore in developing 10,000 units in various locations in Rs 60 lakh-1.75 crore price range.

Trehan Group plans to invest Rs 150 crore in developing 1,000 units.

“For a developer, monetising high-rises takes a lot of time and effort. With the attractive scheme of Haryana government, where it offers rebates in developing independent floors, it makes sense to go for low-rise development,” said Abhishek Trehan, executive director, Trehan Group.

Experts said the government scheme and multiple builders offering competitive priced flats would help curb unauthorised construction too.

“In the next two years, independent floors will dominate the real estate market and developers will keep on offering better projects and amenities to lure the customers, keeping in mind the need and desire of the end users,” said Ashish Thapar, managing director, T and T Realty Services.

According to property consultants, independent floors will account for 75% of the total launches in Gurgaon, while it used to account for less than 10% earlier.

Some developers are even converting the group housing licence to DDJAY.

“We have applied for licence change after seeing the demand for floors. We have planned a township of plotted developments and are acquiring more land. We plan to invest Rs 100 crore in the construction of 600 units,” said Rehan Huck, vice president – retail, ILC Group.

Gurugram: Notices to 35 owners in DLF-5, Sushant Lok-1 over violations

Author: +91-7765906259
Categories: Gurgaon Property News & Real Estate Updates

The department of town and country planning has granted one week’s time to the property owners to clarify their situation failing which a sealing and demolition drive will be carried out against them.

GURUGRAM: Twelve residential properties in DLF-5 were served notices for running commercial activities like saloons, clinics, property dealer offices and grocery shops in violation of the rules.

Another 23 notices have been issued to residential property owners in Sushant Lok-1 who have made violations by doing addition and alterations after obtaining Occupation Certificates.

The department of town and country planning has granted one week’s time to the property owners to clarify their situation failing which a sealing and demolition drive will be carried out against them.

District town planner RS Batth said the property owners in DLF-5 might be paying commercial taxes to the civic body but this does not entitle them to change the nature of plot from residential to commercial, as it is a gross violation of sanctioned layout of colony as well as the OCs issued to them. Batth said if the property owners failed to restore the violations, the department will not only seal or demolish the violations but also lodge a police complaint against the owners.

“Many residential buildings are being used to run commercial activities, causing loss to the state exchequer to the tune of several crores every year. As per rules, commercial activities are not allowed in residential areas, be it licensed colonies that come under DTCP or plots in sectors falling under Haryana Shahari Vikas Pradhikaran (HSVP),” he said.

Last year in December the DTP had proposed around 10 times the existing fee for desealing of properties found running illegal commercial activities and violating building plan in licensed colonies. The department had also proposed huge penalty for the property owners, who carry out unauthorised construction or excess coverage then the prescribed floor area ratio (FAR).

Some don’t pay upkeep fee, maintenance hit: Mayfield Garden residents

Author: +91-7765906259
Categories: Gurgaon Property News & Real Estate Updates

The society has around 400 flats, out of which over 50% people are not paying maintenance at present, according to the RWA. Water supply was discontinued a few days back and it was restored only when some of the residents came forward and pooled in some money.

GURUGRAM: Disputes between various groups of residents and non-payment of maintenance charges has emerged as a major problem in several housing societies of Gurgaon, causing disruption of essential services. J-Block of Mayfield Garden in Sector 51 is one such society. The society has around 400 flats, out of which over 50% people are not paying maintenance at present, according to the RWA.

Water supply was discontinued a few days back and it was restored only when some of the residents came forward and pooled in some money. The society’s water and electricity bill dues amount to lakhs. “Those paying maintenance charges regularly have to face problems because of non-payers,” said Ashok Gulia, former president of J-Block RWA.

Commander Satyavir Singh (retd), resident of Mapsko Casa Bella in Sector 82, said delay in payments of maintenance is directly affecting services in their society too. “People like us who are paying it timely suffer if few residents don’t pay on time,” he said. AK Singh, president and CEO of maintenance company Enviro — which is in charge of maintenance of several residential societies in the city — said non-payment of maintenance charges is a big hindrance which impacts quality living.

“Long delays in the payment of maintenance fee is a major obstacle which impacts the overall operations and maintenance of any realty project,” said Rahul Singla, director of Mapsko Group.
