Delhi-NCR home to artificial price appreciation

Pritam Yadav bought an apartment in Noida at Rs 3,000 per sq ft in an upcoming location three years back. The developer had then promised that the price will appreciate to no less than Rs 4,500 per sq feet within 18-24 months. It actually appreciated to Rs. 5000 within couple of years. However, circumstantial exit effort made him realise that the appreciation was only a castle in the air.

This doctor could not find any buyer at the appreciated price point. Forget Rs. 5000 sq feet price that the developer was advertising, he could not get any taker in the secondary market for even Rs. 4000 per sq feet.

First time home buyers: Prone to be sorry than safe

In the real estate market consumer activism in India may have been high in recent times, but consumer awareness is pretty low. Most of the first time home buyers even fail to differentiate between what they want and what they need in an apartment, forget about their knowledge with regard to legalities and necessary checklist.

Gaurav Kapoor booked a flat in one of the newly launched projects of Delhi-NCR in early 2007. He was promised the flat would be ready for possession within three years with a grace period of six months. To play safe Gaurav even opted for a construction linked payment plan to the developer but six years have gone and he is yet to get his flat and every time he has approached the developer, various reasons for delay have been cited from macro economic conditions to funding woes and approval delays on part of the government agencies.

Justice delayed and denied

One-sided builder-buyer contract, late delivery of the possession and poor quality of construction is an accepted reality in the Indian real estate. A prominent developer in Noida Extension is reportedly forcing its buyers to sign the modified apartment buyer contracts with extended possession date and reduced penalty for delay in handing over the apartments. “Otherwise, we are ready and willing to refund the entire booking amount along with 11 per cent interest, without any deductions,” says the forwarding of the letter sent to the buyers.
