Ravi Karandeekar's Pune Real Estate Market News Blog

Revival of Pune real estate market news blog

2025-12-01T19:59:00.000+05:30

Good morning, friends. I am Ravi Karandikar.

You know me as the Pune real estate blogger.

From 2007 to nearly the end of 2019, I was writing Ravi Karandikar's Pune real estate market news blog.

Since then, I stopped writing that blog.

Currently, I am focusing on redevelopment in the Kothrud area.

Why did I stop writing the blog?

Frankly speaking, I was really tired because I had been doing it for nearly 12 years, from 2007 to 2019.

I also got tired because of the physical efforts required.

Another major reason was COVID. During that time, I couldn't move out of my home.

You remember my original way of posting was **ground reporting** I used to visit each and every launch of a project in Pune, Pimpri Chinchwad, and the fringe villages to cover the event and post news about the project.

My content wasn't just coverage. I used to review the project planning, study it, and write about the history of the project or the builder.

Before 2007, I actually worked for developers from 2001 to 2007, so I knew how they thought and operated.

I felt that experience promoted me to enlighten the buyers.

From 2007 onward, I considered myself working for the property buyers in Pune.

People were always worried about builders, as nobody trusts a builder.

They wanted advice on whether a builder was genuine, delivered on time, or had good construction quality.

More importantly, I used my blog and YouTube channel to cover projects where **builders cheated the buyers** and encouraged the victims to speak about it.

Mainstream media never wrote about the wrongdoings of builders because advertising from builders was their main revenue source.

The victims had only social media, and I was their main mouthpiece.

This was stressful; I was fighting against wrongdoings and was threatened from many sides.

Now, I am 70 years old.

I am sort of retired,

focusing on Kothrud redevelopment,

but I miss the entire Pune real estate market.

Now, I am thinking I should pay some attention to the entire market again.

My followers told me that nobody wants to read long blogs anymore.

They prefer to watch videos—long videos, short videos, even Reels.

My followers claimed my advice was helpful, and they feel there is **nobody who is neutral, who is critical, and who has buyers' interests in their mind** right now to guide them to make the right decision.

This is why I have been encouraged to prepare videos on the entire Pune real estate market, and I will do so in English, as I used to write my blog in English

Writing in English I was comfortable with, but talking in English in a video format makes me feel a little uncomfortable.

This is my first attempt at making a video to continue posting on my channel.

I know I am not good at this yet.

I encourage and request you to suggest how I can improve and how I can share useful information with you.

I am looking forward to continuing and renewing our old relationships.

Thank you.

Pune builders are still in denial mode

2019-12-14T17:02:00.000+05:30

Review of Credai Pune Metro Mega Property Festival 2019:

I am a Punekar

1) Suspicion and Mistrust about the Pune Builders:

Builders in Pune are not ready to accept that not the bankruptcy and insolvency but the trust deficit is their number one problem.

For sure, Pune builders know that the 'suspicion and mistrust about the builders' is the main reason we, as far as possible, avoid booking flats in their under-construction projects.

Pune builders know that suspicion and mistrust about them is the main reason for the slowdown in Pune real estate market, still, they refuse to accept and deal with it.

They do nothing to clear suspicion and mistrust in our minds.

They refuse to accept the reality and give up an opportunity - like CREDAI Pune Metro Property Festival - to remove suspicion and create trust in our minds.

Instead of respecting our concerns, Pune builders order us to say -
Say it with Pride
#IAmAPunekar
Pune is Home

2) Negative Impact:

I spent a lot of time - from noon to evening - at Credai Pune Metro Property Festival 2019 - last Sunday, 8th of December.

For me, the property exhibition is an opportunity to meet my blog readers and clients - clients mean the property buyers who have taken my advice about buying a flat in Pune real estate market - as well as builders' sales staff.

Obviously, everyone asked me - "Ravi, have you stopped blogging?".
To which I had a ready reply - "Not stopped. I took a break. Starting soon"

But after this small talk, everyone expressed concerns about some big builders who didn't participate in the exhibition.

The list started with old and established builders like Paranjape Schemes - Kolte Patil and ended with new and noticeable builders like VTP. Some even included out of town builders like Adani, Shapoorji, and Piramal!

Big means deep trouble. Someone said.

Big or small doesn't matter anymore.
In fact, now, no builder is a brand.
Everyone is a commodity.
Everyone is at the mercy of channel partners.
Those who didn't participate are smart.
They didn't waste their money on an unproductive activity like this exhibition.

Whatever may be the reason for non-participation but the impact is the same.

Negative sentiments and increased suspicion and mistrust about Pune real estate market.

3) Emotionally Bankrupt Pune Property Buyers:

All of us know that booking a flat in an under-construction project is risky.
Comparatively, buying a ready possession flat is less risky.
Whereas renting a flat is a safe and sound idea.

Though we know this, some of us become a victim of emotional pressure.

At some point, particularly when they cross 30, they can't defend themselves.

By not accepting their rational ideas, their close ones hurt them emotionally.

When these emotionally hurt brothers start searching home.
They realize that their budget is too less.
This hurts them more.

They realize that their success in education and career has no value in the property market.
As a property buyer, they are nothing but losers.

Today, these emotionally hurt brothers have become the targets of the builders in Pune.

Most of the builders who have participated in this exhibition were offering compact flats that will fit in the budgets of these emotionally hurt brothers.

"This flat fits in my budget. But can my family fit into this flat? It's too small!" our brother asks himself and leaves the exhibition.

Completely disappointed.

Totally hurt. Emotionally.

"How long can you resist? You have no option but to accept what I offer. Surrender or rent. You have no option" - The builder insults our brother.

Visit to a property exhibition becomes an emotional disaster.

This home buying experience bankrupts our brother emotionally.

He stops searching for property. He postpones home buying decision.

He has an option. An option of renting a flat as long as he can.

But the builders in Pune have no option.

Their business runs on the property buyers' money.

The only option they have is being in the denial mode. Till they announce bankruptcy.

When some journalist asks the builder - How was the response to the exhibition?

A builder in denial mode says - "There is a demand. But the buyers are sitting on the fence. All this is because of the slowdown in the economy, low GDP growth, GST on the property, demonetization, job uncertainty, etc."

Most of the products we consume are 'democratized'. Which means that most of us can have what we want. When we want. Because things have become gradually cheaper. Transportation has become faster, affordable and safer. Food and clothing are ample. Then why only housing is such a big issue?

Who is ready to solve this issue? Please, let me know in the comments.

Ready possession 1 and 2 BHK Flats in Kothrud

2019-04-17T07:52:00.000+05:30

Last few ready possession 1 BHK & 2 BHK Flats available at Kharde Patil Kalyani, Bhairavi, and Devyani at Swami Vivekanand Nagar, Survey No. 71, off Mumbai Bangalore Highway, opposite Mahatma Society, at Kothrud, Pune 411 038:

Kharde Patil Kalyani, Bhairavi, and Devyani from NDA Road

Generally, "Last few flats" means "Hurry" "Rush" "Book Today". A statement made to put pressure on the buyer. Right? But here I am not saying this to put any kind of pressure on you.

I am telling this to myself. "Ravi, this may be your last chance to blog about Kalyani, Bhairavi, and Devyani!". In fact, I told this to Mr. Arun Kharde Patil when I visited it a few days ago with my friend Mr. Padmanabh Warade who looks after the sales. So this is about me. Not about you.

I am visiting Kalyani, Bhairavi, and Devyani since these buildings were under construction. At that point, I didn't write about this cluster of low-rise buildings (4 - 5 stories) because Padmanabh told me - "We - Kharde Patil - sell ready possession flats".

Eventually, all the buildings got ready and they started selling. But somehow I didn't write about it. Though I had visited it many times. Though I have learned all about it. Though I have posted about it on my Facebook Page. Though I have recommended it to many.

All these times I was feeling guilty for failing to write about it. That's why this time, when Padmanabh showed me the list of available flats, I realized that this is the last opportunity for me to write about it.

Here is a list of available flats:

1) 1 BHK Terrace Flats - 42 Sq.mt. / 452 Sq.ft. Carpet (approx) + Terrace 6 Sq.mt. / 64 Sq.ft. Terrace (aaprox) for around Rs. 54 - 55 Lakhs - approx all inclusive property price.

2) 2 BHK Terrace Flats - 50 - 60 Sq.ft / 540 - 656 Sq.ft. Carpet (approx) + Terrace 4 - 8 Sq.mt. / 45 - 90 Sq.ft for around Rs. 65 - 85 Lakhs - approx all inclusive property price.

What is so great about Kharde Patil Kalyani, Bhairavi, and Devyani?

Is it necessary to talk more about these cluster of buildings? Haven't I said enough? I have told you that the location is Kothrud. Flats are ready possession. I have given an approximate idea about the property prices. Isn't this information more than enough for you? Maybe. But not for me.

"Ravi, add all the recent photos and publish the blog," I told myself and opened the folder of the photos I had shot on my last visit.

Looking at photos I found an answer for not writing about Kalyani, Bhairavi, and Devyani for so long. I was not procrastinating. I wanted to write an in-depth review of it. The volume of information I wanted to share overwhelmed me every time I sat to write.

But this time I am determined to post. So, instead of writing about all the good things I like about these properties, Padmanabh Warade, and Mr. Kharde Patil, I am going to refer to the photos and talk about my last visit to Kalyani, Bhairavi, and Devyani. I hope this experience will tell you why I am so fond of this property. It happened like this -

As usual, Padmanabh came to collect me. (Both of us stay on Paud Road in Kothrud.) On the way, we will have a look at the progress of the service roads. Said Padmanabh.

As usual, we visited the under construction sites of the service roads opposite Rishabh Heights and Hill Crest Society near Sri Sringeri Shankara Math and Mohite Highschool.

Then we stopped opposite Lohia Jain IT Park on Paud Road to check the beginning of the service road.

Then we turned on the service road which starts from Ved Vihar. On the way, Padmanabh pointed to the buildings which were demolished or going to be demolished.

Of course, he told me all about upcoming projects in that neighborhood - Sobha Nesara (Elanza), Arvind Elan, Amit Ved Vihar Phase 2.

Then we stopped at the underpass opposite Vasudha Etasha.

"Underpass has become operational - while going back I will show you - how easily you can go via Mahatma Society," Padmanabh said.

"Why do you show me all this every time?" I asked him.

"To show you the connectivity to Kothrud," Padmanabh said.

"But don't you get tired?" I asked.

"It's my job to share authentic information," said Padmanabh.

I was not surprised to see Mr. Kharde Patil near Kalyani, Bhairavi, and Devyani. He was doing soil testing at the new plot.

A couple of years ago, when I wrote about Woods Royale, I was impressed to see him personally supervising the construction. "I am an engineer and I enjoy my job," Mr. Kharde Patil had told me. So his presence at the site was not a surprise for me.

While we were admiring the floors and plants and shooting photos of the buildings, Padmanabh's assistant Snehal invited him to the office to meet the flat buyers.

While Padmanabh was attending the buyers, from the terrace of the sales office in Devyani, I shot a few photos of Wonder Futura, Hill View, Mumbai Bangalore Highway, Vasudha Itasha, Sigma One Grand Stand, etc.

After I finished shooting when I peeped inside the office, I saw Mr. Arun Kharde Patil talking with the flat buyers!

You know? Builders avoid meeting the buyers. Not Kharde Patil!

In fact, it was not at all necessary. Padmanabh was there to look after the buyers.

Looking at the family of a flat buyer with sales in charge and the builder made me emotional.

How privileged this family is. The builder is treating them so respectfully.

After the flat buyer family left, I asked Mr. Kharde Patil, "Why the special treatment?".

"Every buyer is special for me. It's my job and I enjoy it," Mr. Kharde Patil said and added, "Did you see that mother and daughter talking to me? They were inviting me for a cup of tea"

"The other day, a few people from PMC were here. Do you know what they said? We visit so many housing projects but feel like buying a flat only with you," Padmanabh told me.

"That's great! What's the availability?" I asked him.

"A few," he said.

It means that Ravi, this may be your last chance to blog about Kalyani, Bhairavi, and Devyani.

And look! I did it!! Hurrah!!!

Pethkar Projects Opens Booking of Phase 2 of Siyona at Punawale

2019-04-05T22:49:00.000+05:30

All inclusive property prices in Phase 2 of Siyona at Punawale in PCMC:
2 BHK Flat for Rs. 61 to 67 Lakhs & 3 BHK Flats for Rs. 79 to 85 Lakhs!

Pethkar Projects Opens Booking of Phase 2 of Siyona at Punawale

Mr. Jitendra Pethkar of Pethkar Projects had already told me that he is going to open booking of phase 2 of Siyona on the same date he had opened the booking of phase 1. The date may be the same - 4th April - but a lot of things have changed between 4th April 2014 and 4th April 2019.

Yeah. You know all about the slowdown in Pune real estate market, demonetization, MahaRERA, GST. But I am not talking about these things and their effects. I am talking about the much more serious problem I was facing.

Since the Siyona was launched in 2014, I was recommending it. Initially, everyone used to thank me for it. Because at the time of launch, 2 BHK Flats were available for Rs. 55 to 60 Lakhs, 2.5 BHK for 64 to 70 Lakhs and 3 BHK for 72 to 79 Lakhs.

But as the construction progressed, the property prices of Siyona went on increasing. Today the ready possession 2 BHK flats in Siyona are available for 74 - 87 Lakhs and 3 BHK for 1.01 - 1.05 Crore.

Obviously, those who needed a ready possession flat or were smart enough to understand the benefits of buying a ready to move in flat could go for Siyona. Only if they have that much budget!

"I liked the project but the price is beyond my budget. Can you suggest some other project which is as good as Siyona?" buyer used to ask me.

"I am offering advice about buying a flat in Pune since 2007. But very very rarely have I ever recommended a project so strongly. Siyona is an exception. I am recommending it from day one. I am always searching for a worth recommending project. As soon as, I find one, for sure, I will write about it. But at this point in time, I am very sorry. I don't know any other project as good as Siyona," I used to say.

That's why I was eagerly waiting for the launch of the 2nd phase of Siyona. The 2nd phase will save me from feeling sorry. It will give me an opportunity to help the buyers to make the right decision. I can do my job well.

I have discussed this concern with Jitu Sir - Jitendra Pethkar. I am tired of saying - "This project is not safe for booking at under construction stage". I want to say - "Yes! This project is safe to book at under construction stage!!" I want to be positive. I want to be helpful."

Jitu Sir had assured me that he will address my concern when he will launch the 2nd phase. That's why yesterday, on the first day of the launch of the 2nd phase of Siyona, I visited the site. And I was glad to see the property prices and plans!

Do you know how Jitu Sir has managed to do it?

He has optimized the size of the flat!

The result is, now, you know that whatever price you are paying is the right price!

For example,

1) Look at the areas and room dimensions of a 2 BHK Flat in the 2nd Phase -

a 2 BHK Flat in the 1st Phase of Siyona at Punawale, PCMC

Carpet Area (MahaRERA Carpet area + Enclosed Balcony): 70.47 Sq.mt. / 759 Sq.ft. + Terrace: 7.24 Sq.mt. / 78 Sq.ft.

1) Entrance Lobby - 4' x 5'1" 2) Living - Dining - 18' x 12'6" 3) Kitchen - 9'6" x 8' 4) Bedroom 1 - 10'6" x 11' 5) Master Bedroom - 11' x 12'6"

All inclusive price is Rs. 60,50,422

2) Now, look at the areas and room dimensions of a ready possession 2 BHK Flat in the 1st Phase -

a 2 BHK Flat in the 2nd Phase -

Carpet Area (MahaRERA Carpet area + Enclosed Balcony): 76.85 Sq.mt. / 827 Sq.ft. + Terrace: 7.54 Sq.mt. / 81 Sq.ft.

1) Entrance Lobby - 4'3" x 8'6" 2) Living - Dining - 18'6" x 13'5" 3) Kitchen - 9'8" x 8'6" 4) Bedroom 1 - 10'6" x 11' 5) Master Bedroom - 11' x 13'5"

All inclusive price is Rs. 74,07,000

What it means?

It means that now, the budget is no more concern. You have an option.

If buying a ready possession 75 lakhs rupees 2 BHK Flat is out of your budget - you can book an under construction 2 BHK Flat in the price range of 61 to 67 Lakhs!

If buying a ready possession 1.05 crore rupees 3 BHK Flat is out of your budget - you can book an under construction 3 BHK Flat in the price range of 79 to 85 Lakhs!

It means that, now, for sure, you can own a property in Siyona.

And own it with full on confidence. Because the first phase is ready. You can actually see what you will get. You can ring a bell and talk with the residents.

Ready possession लो या under construction Siyona मे आपका मन सदैव शांत रहेगा।

(Actually this मन:शान्ति की बात - was not for you. It was about me. When the first phase was launched, my confidence was based on the principles and practices Jitu Sir follows. Now, at the launch of the 2nd phase, there is proof. The 1st phase of Siyona! Which you can touch and see. So, now, you don't have to rely on my opinion. This has made my job easy. That's why while writing this blog I realized that my mind is एकदम शान्त.)

Here are some photos of Siyona, I shot yesterday evening.

The pleasant surprise near Pancard Club at Baner, Pune

2019-03-28T13:34:00.000+05:30

Should I review El-Homes near Pancard Club at Baner?:

Dinesh Jahagirdar at El-Homes, 2 / 3 BHK Flats near Pancard Club, Baner, Pune

Those who know me as Pune real estate blogger will assume that - "Ravi Karandeekar is talking about some housing project near Pancard Club at Baner, Pune". So let me make it clear that I am not talking about a property. I am talking about the people who are developing and marketing that property. I am talking about Mr. R. D. Deshpanday and Mr. Dinesh Jahagirdar. Both of them want me to review their project El-Homes - Entry Level 2 BHK / 3 BHK Homes - MahaRERA Registration No. P52100016546 - between Pancard Club and Kalpataru Jade Residences!

"Really!? They wanted me to write a review! Are you sure?," I asked Vaibhav, my cousin, who is friends with Dinesh.

"Yes! This is Dinesh's first project in PMC. He is new in this market and believes that your review will help a lot," Vaibhav said.

"I am flattered! But flattery from a novice means nothing to me," I said.

"Dinesh is experienced and well established. In the last 10 - 11 years Dinesh was mainly working in PCMC. Mantra Vastu Pvt. Ltd. - Dinesh's sole selling company has marketed more than 20 projects in PCMC," Vaibhav said.

"If he is so experienced then how can he assume that I will write a good review! I am famous for ridicule and harsh criticism. Doesn't he know?" I asked.

"He considers you honest and truthful!," Vaibhav said.

"Flat buyers think so. Not many real estate salespersons or builders!," I said.

"You visit the site and if you feel that it's not worth reviewing - don't write. But at least visit. For me. Dinesh is my friend," Vaibhav said.

"For you - I can visit any project - Don't you know this? Fix an appointment! By the way - who is the builder?" I said.

"R. D. Deshpanday Developers Pvt. Ltd.," Vaibhav said.

"Are Kulkarnis and Deshpandes still in this business?" I said.

"See for yourself!" Vaibhav said.

As per the plan, Dinesh came to collect me. I made it clear to him that I am visiting the site only because he is Vaibhav's friend and I will review only if I felt it worth writing about.

"What makes a project worth writing about? How do you decide?" Dinesh asked.

"Good question! There are 2 parameters - 1) If the concept is good and if I am convinced that the builder is capable of completing the project as planned - I not only write a good review but I suggest that project to the flat buyers who seek my advice. Of course, this rarely happens. In recent times Pethkar Projects' Siyona at Punawale and Little Earth - Masulkar City at Kiwale are the only two examples. 2) If I find that the concept of the project is stupid and harmful - I believe that it's my duty to write a review and warn the flat buyers to avoid that project," I said.

"And when you do that - the builder of that project - takes serious action against you. Right?' Dinesh said.

"Glad to know that you have done your homework!" I said.

"Is it the reason you are not writing much these days?" Dinesh asked.

"No. I was too busy in DSK fraud - so couldn't write much. But now I have relieved myself from it - mainly to concentre on my blog," I said.

"I have tested the project. The flat buyers' response was quite positive. Actually, that gave me the confidence to invite you to write about it," Dinesh said.

"What did you do?" I asked.

"I did a hoarding campaign in Baner. Ran a teaser campaign and then introduced the project. Got a good number of site visits and bookings," Dinesh said.

"Good for you! Is selling the toughest challenge in the sole selling business?" I asked.

"No! Selling happens. Getting a good project of a trustworthy builder who will deliver is the toughest challenge. I take a project only if I am sure that the builder will complete the project, " Dinesh said.

"It means that every project you have taken for the sole selling is complete - not a single project is stalled or left incomplete?," I asked.

"Yes! Some projects are delayed - but the delay was reasonable - in some projects, some flat buyers are less satisfied - but every builder has delivered. I have never failed in my judgment in selecting the project," Dinesh said.

"And all these builders were small - not a single well-known big name," I asked.

"Some were - are - known in their niche - in their neighborhood - who have done or are doing multiple projects - but not a big brand," Dinesh said.

"Mostly at Chikhali - Moshi...." I said.

"And at Chakan, Charholi, Dighi, Thergaon, Ravet, Punawale, Kiwale, Kudalwadi, Dehuroad ..." Dinesh said.

"I know.. I have visited your website. But, what made you sure that this Deshpaday builder will complete the project?," I said.

"I am not a flat buyer to assume that every launched project will be completed. Neither I am a channel partner or a broker to get my commission after the flat buyer registers the agreement. I am there with the flat buyers till they get possession of flats. So, the builder needs to convince me that he has a litigation-free property, enough financial resources and honest intention to complete the project. Mr. Deshpanday did that," Dinesh said.

"Litigation free property - financial resources and intention - rare commodities in Pune real estate market - mostly found in the small local builders - that's why channel partners are in thousands but sole selling companies are not even a hundred," I said.

"And they are on the verge of extinction - aren't they?" Dinesh said.

"Yes! You know? That is the main reason I said yes to visit. In this month - most of the Pune builders have told me that because of these so-called big corporate brands and government policies their survival is in serious danger," I said.

"And the majority of the flat buyers believe that small builders are crooks and big brands are saints," Dinesh said.

"Wealthy saints - despite the fact that their balance sheets don't show profits and though they openly take MahaRERA for a ride," I said.

"Survival of the fittest - brutal reality - to survive a small builder has to become competitive - offer a property which no big brand can offer - says Mr. Deshpanday," Dinesh said.

"Sounds good," I said.

"The concept of El-Homes is like that! The housing solution for the buyers who are in their 30s - which no big brand is offering - at this point of time - at Baner. The initial response from the flat buyers proves this," Dinesh said.

"If it is so - then what is the point in visiting the site and writing the review! Take a U-turn and drop me home," I said.

"Mr. Deshpanday is waiting for you at the site," Dinesh said.

"Your Deshpanday is daring baaz," I said.

"Because he is not just a promoter and developer - Mr. Deshpande is a landlord, an architect, and a builder," Dinesh said.

"I am curious to meet him. Very rarely do I come across a builder who can actually build!," I said.

"Here he is," parking at the site, Dinesh said.

"Welcome, Ravi Karandeekar! I am R. G. Deshpanday. Remember me? A couple of years ago, when I bought a property, I took your advice. Ever since, on and off, we are in touch over the phone," Mr. Deshpanday said.

"Wait a minute," I said and called R. D. Deshpande on my mobile.

Showing his ringing mobile, Mr. Deshpanday said, "I told you all about myself except this - that I am a builder - only because - I was waiting for the right time - and today is that time!"

"Sure, it is," I said and asked Dinesh and Vaibhav, "Did you know that we were phone friends?"

"No! He just expressed his wish to show you the project. That's all. The project review was Vaibhav's idea," Dinesh said.

No one realized how the next couple of hours passed by.. Mr. Deshpaday and Dinesh told me all about El-Homes. Showed me the sample flat and all other things.

"There isn't anything like meeting in person! To celebrate this moment, let me take a photo of both of you, " I said.

But Mr. Deshpanday refused. "I am just a गवंडी - a mason, " he said.

But Dinesh Jahagirdar couldn't avoid me. After all, selling El-Homes at Baner is his job.

When he dropped me home, I said, "Considering the location and property prices - I don't think - there is any need to write a review. Am I right?"

"Didn't you find the concept interesting - flexible - customizable plan of a 2 BHK? Considering the size and the budget - Isn't my 3 BHK the best deal in Baner?," Dinesh asked.

"Spot on! What all I have to do is type what you just said and give your company's phone number 7447 766 766," I said.

Are you curious about Child Centric Homes in Gera's Song of Joy at Kharadi?

2019-01-22T17:37:00.000+05:30

Mere emotional appeal?

Last weekend when I saw 2 full-page ads of Child-centric homes in Gera's Song of Joy at Kharadi, I realized that I haven't seen these 'celebrity-led learning academies for sports, performing arts and more designed to help kids pursue their dreams'.

"Ravi Karandeekar, this is not right. How can you ignore Shankar Mahadevan, Shaimak Davar, Anil Kumble, Mahesh Bhupathi, Vishwanathan Anand? Whenever you lift a mug to take a sip of coffee, all of them tell you that 'We are coming to Gera's Child-Centric Homes" Isn't it?"

"Yeah! I got that Mug when I attended the press conference of Song of Joy in May 2014. For me, 'Gera's child-centric homes' was not news. Gera's Emerald City North already had child-centric homes. This time, at Song of Joy, the only difference was the 'celebrity led academies'. It means that 'Child-centric homes' is not an emotional appeal - marketing gimmick - it is a genuine idea. I didn't visit it only because I was waiting for these academies to become operational. Now, I am curious to visit it," I told myself and left for Kharadi.

I got down at Kharadi Gaon bus stop and started walking on the Grand Road.

Mad Millennials?:

"Besides, Celebrity led academies in Child-Centric Homes at Song of Joy, Ravi, you don't know one more groundbreaking concept in Pune real estate market," I told myself.

"Which one?" I asked.

"Guess! I will give you 3 clues - 1) Co-Living 2) Panchshil 3) 30470 per month," I told myself.

"Flo - a next-generation co-living solution for young professionals working in Eon Free Zone - Atul Chordia's latest venture - CoLiving Stories Pvt. Ltd. - at Eon Water Front Phase 2. Right?" I said.

"It means that - Ravi, you don't know anything about today's parents as well as young professionals!" I told myself.

"You got me! I fail to understand Millennials - people born between 1981-1996 - 22-37-year-old. If you care so much for the future of your child - instead of buying 80 - 130 Lakh Child-Centric Home - why don't you rent a flat for 30 - 40 K and save money for your child's education? If you can afford to pay 30,000 per month - instead of Co-Living with flatmates - why don't you rent a flat and live independently? I need to understand. I need to visit both," I said.

Crisil 4 Star Rated Guardian Eastern Meadows:

Around the marketing office of Gera's Song of Joy, Gera's Misty Waters at Keshav Nagar was advertised. At the entrance to the office, some alteration work was going on. One of the sales persons at the gate welcomed me.

"I am curious about your 'celebrity led academies'. When can I visit?" without wasting any time, I asked him.

After the visit was arranged, I asked him "Since you don't have anything to sell in Song of Joy, why did you release 2 full-page ads in the newspaper?"

"Branding! To promote 'Child-centric concept'," the salesman said and added that "Selling is not a problem for us".

"Why?" I asked.

"In the last few years - Gera brand has become very powerful. Plus, the progress of construction is very good, and we have a highly motivated sales team. You know? There was a queue for booking flats in Adara at Hinjewadi - not only that - office and retail spaces in Imperium Rise at Hinjewadi are almost sold out. Soon, we are launching office spaces in Imperium Alpha Kharadi - just across the road," the salesperson said.

Whatever he was saying was all music to my years. With great joy, I took his leave.

In that joyful mood, you know what I did?

Though it was almost dark, I stopped at Guardian Eastern Meadows! (Otherwise, I don't dare to visit CRISIL 4 Star rated projects.)

"Are any flats available for booking?," I asked the salesperson.

"Yes! In the 2nd phase. 2 BHK for approx 67 - 70 and 3 BHK for 98," pointing at the property price list, he said.

"Good for you!," I said. Eastern Meadows was launched in 2015. At that time, cost of a 2 BHK was around 58 Lakhs and a 3 BHK was for 80. The possession of the 1st phase was in December 2018. Now, the revised possession date is December 2020. It means that the sales persons in Eastern Meadows will remain busy for a few more years. Good for them. Isn't it?

What say you, millennials?

Housing society redevelopment training workshop

2019-01-17T15:16:00.000+05:30

Teamwork makes the dream work:

Housing society redevelopment training workshop

My 3 part Marathi YouTube videos series "How to do a successful redevelopment of your Co-Operative Housing Society" with Advocate Mahesh Gajendragadkar has become very popular. Every other day, someone who has watched the videos calls Mahesh on his mobile 91 90110 1118 and invites him to his society. "I have learned a lot about the redevelopment process from your videos. Now, I want you to come to my society and teach all the members" - the caller requests Mahesh.

Sometimes, Mahesh told me that, the caller is not a Chairman - Secretory or even a managing committee member. Still, he takes an initiative because he has realized the importance of following the legal procedure of redevelopment.

It means that there is someone like me in every housing society! I said.

Yes, there are! Mahesh said and invited me to attend a meeting of Janak Society at Badlapur last weekend.

I have seen Mahesh's public seminars on redevelopment. But I have never attended his private training workshop for the society members. That's why I was curious about it. Plus, like my society - this Janak society was small. A single standalone building of some 20 flats. So, I thought that I can learn a lot from this workshop and took the trouble to go to all the way to Badlapur.

After attending Mahesh's training workshop I realized 3 things -

1) Every society has its own unique issues. Mahesh has legal knowledge as well as practical experience of redevelopment - that's why he can address these unique issues quite well.

2) For successful redevelopment, unity is very important. Redevelopment divides society members. That's why in his workshop Mahesh gives a lot of importance to team building. He says - Teamwork makes the dream work.

3) Road map to success. At the end of this 3-hour training workshop, the society members could prepare their own road map to successful redevelopment of their housing society. This was quite a satisfying experience.

To teach the legal way of redevelopment to my society members, I made these videos. And it worked. My society has decided to follow the legal procedure. After attending Mahesh's redevelopment training workshop, I have realized that knowing is not enough. To redevelop my housing society successfully, members training is essential.

Society maintenance charges at Teerth Towers Sus

2019-01-16T17:44:00.000+05:30

Don't become a society maintenance defaulter:

Don't become a society maintenance defaulter

I was shocked to see the list of society maintenance defaulters. There were some 17 flat owners. The total unpaid/overdue maintenance charges were around 10 Lakh Rupees. And this was a list of only 1 building. There are some 320 plus flat buyers in some 6 buildings plus a couple of bungalows in Teerth Towers at Sus Gaon. Guess! What would be the total number of defaulters and unpaid maintenance charges!!

How can a co-operative housing society survive when there are so many defaulters? I asked myself.

No. No. Ravi, you don't bother about the co-operative housing society. You are here to find out why Teerth Towers CHS is doing injustice to Mr. Rahul - your reader. Mr. Rahul expects you to take his side and help him to fight against injustice.

"I have already paid 2 years advance maintenance charges to the builder. I took possession of my flat in 2016. Means I don't have to pay maintenance for the next 2 years. Right?" Rahul asked me.

"Right," I said.

"Then how can the society demand maintenance from 2015?" Rahul asked.

"Why from 2015?" I asked.

"In 2015 the society was formed," Rahul said.

"Okay," I said.

"Not only that! The society is charging 21% penalty interest on the delayed maintenance charges!! 21% is so unfair!!!," Rahul said.

"Rahul, but this is 2019. Why didn't you resolve this issue in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018? Are you facing some financial problems?" I asked.

"Money is not a problem. I am doing well in the USA," Rahul said.

"Oh! The USA is the problem!!," I said.

"No. Society is the problem," Rahul said.

Let me find out, I told Rahul and visited Teerth Towers last weekend. And you know what? As per the defaulters' list, Rahul was number one problem. He was number one defaulter. He hasn't paid since 2015. On 31st December 2018, Rahul's outstanding society maintenance charges were around 1.6 lakhs.

"Is this the case of miscommunication?" I asked the treasurer of Teerth Towers who happened to be at the office.

"Look at this statement. Our communication is in black and white," Mr. Treasurer said.

"But why from 2015?" I asked.

"In 2015 - one fine day - suddenly - the builder stopped the maintenance - withdrew his staff - including the security - so all of us - the residents - flat owners as well as renters - came together and decided to manage on our own - starting with गस्त at night - to protect our families - as much as one can - we pooled our own money - to run the society - then eventually we won the legal battle and formed a co-op society - then we formalized everything and managing well on one side and fighting legal battle on the other side," said Mr. Treasurer.

"But all this time Rahul was not here - so he may be unaware," I said.

"We have informed each and everyone," Mr. Treasurer said.

"But Rahul has already paid 2 years maintenance charges to the builder and he has taken possession in 2016," I said.

"Yes! I know. The builder has given us a list of those who had paid. But he hasn't transferred any money. So, he has to deal with the builder about it. He knows that" Mr. Treasurer said.

"Okay. Why 21% penalty interest on delayed payments? Isn't it too much?" I asked.

"First - It's as per by-laws. Second - You know how much we pay for tanker water? We don't have a water supply line. We don't have a drainage line. We have to run the sewage treatment plant and use tankers to transport overflow. Look at the size of the project and the height of these multistory buildings. Our common electricity bill is huge. Our maintenance charges are too much - still, we collect around 4,000 per month - is it too much?" Mr. Treasurer said.

"Are you repenting?," I asked.

"I am stating facts, please, explain this to Rahul," Mr. Treasurer said.

"Sure," I said and took his leave.

I was very much convinced that Rahul is a dumb ass. Like every NRI. No! He is a double dumb ass. Like every flat buyer who books a flat in a fringe village like Sus, Mahalunge.

"Ravi, this is not fair. You know that Rahul is not a dumbass," I told myself.

"Yeah! Rahul is an ass - not a dumb ass. But, Mr. Treasurer of Teerth Towers is a gentleman. Right?," I asked myself.

"How?," I asked myself.

1) Rahul is an ass because -

Like every flat buyer, Rahul is delusional - he assumes that he is the owner of his flat.

But the fact is - till you don't repay the home loan you are the tenant of the bank.

For a Co-Operative Housing Society (CHS) - you are just a shareholder and a flat holder. An allottee. Not an owner. The CHS is the owner. CHS owns the land. CHS owns the building.

It means that you can enter your flat because CHS lets you use the staircase or a lift. You can take a bath, wash your clothes and utensils only because CHS supplies water to your flat. You can watch TV in your living room only because CHS supplies power.

Just imagine what will happen if one morning you wake up and find out that all floors below and above your flats have vanished in the thin air.

Rahul doesn't understand that he can survive only because he is one of them. So, it is not only about him. It is about all of us. CHS is a collective living. CHS survives because everyone contributes.

That's why - no one can refuse to pay maintenance charges and hold others for ransom. Put others life in danger.

Rahul, accept the reality. You are not a king. You are just a cog in this machine called Co-Operative Housing Society.

When your spouse, parents, and friends tell you - 'Buy a flat' - 'Invest in property' - they are not interested in your well being. They are just fulfilling their duty. The duty of creating debt. Because the economic engine runs on the debt. And CHS creates big debt very efficiently.

Though you live in the USA, you have fulfilled your obligation by buying a flat in Pune. Now, fulfill your duty by paying maintenance charges so that the residents of Teerth Towers can survive.

2) Mr. Treasurer of Teerth Towers CHS is a gentleman because -

As per the By-Laws, Co-Operative Housing Society has tremendous powers. But it looks like that Mr. Treasurer hasn't used any.

For example - Within 30 days from 31st March of every year, CHS can classify a maintenance defaulter as a 'Non-Active Member'. Not only that! If the member hasn't paid society charges for more than 3 months, CHS can confiscate the shares held by the maintenance defaulter and expel him!

A defaulter cannot vote or contest the election of the managing committee. And CHS has all rights to pass the rules about how to deal with the defaulter. Sometimes, some CHS has even disconnected water and electricity supply of the defaulter - which, of course, is illegal. CHS can't do this because this is inhuman. But, of course, CHS can put restrictions on using common parking space, refuse to give NOC - No Objection Certificate - etc.

Under Section 101 of Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act 1960, a CHS can file a case with Deputy Registrar of Co-operative Societies for the recovery of the dues and get the order to confiscate and auction not only movable goods in the flat but the flat itself.

It only means that Mr. Rahul, the smart NRI property buyer, should not take disadvantage of Mr. Treasurer of Teerth Towers at Sus,

Yes, of course, Rahul can fight for reduced penalty interest, but first, he should clear his dues.

Why only Rahul? No one should become a society maintenance defaulter.

What say you? Am I right? Please, share your views in the comments.

It's all well and good at KUL Ecoloch Mahalunge

2019-01-14T21:25:00.000+05:30

No! It's not about Mahalunge Maan Hitech City!!

Mahalunge Maan Hitech City!

A couple of days ago, Mr. Someone (To protect his identity - I am not mentioning his real name) Whatsapped me good news about KUL Ecoloch.

As per the invitation, I visited KUL Ecoloch last weekend. A few more M/s Someones from KUL Ecoloch (To protect their identities - I am not mentioning their real names) met me outside the main gate. Over a cup of tea, for a couple of hours, they told me everything about the good news.

Not only that! All Mr. Someones put me in their car and gave me a tour of KUL Ecoloch. They showed me the progress and expressed their satisfaction.

Glad to know that they are happy and well, I requested them to let me take some photographs.

"Please, don't blog about the news and the works," they requested me.

"Let the world know that you are doing good.....," I tried to convince them.

"Not now - at the right time - we will let you know!," one of the Mr. Someones said something like this and didn't let me shoot photos.

"As you wish!," I said and took their leave.

So, I have nothing to show and tell you about KUL Ecoloch. Except for one thing - It's all well and good at KUL Ecoloch.

Of course, you can see the photos of Blue Ridge Hinjewadi and the entrance of Khelo India Youth Games at Balewadi Stadium, I shot on my way to KUL Ecoloch.

Some of you may guess that it must be about Mahalunge Maan Hitech City.

No. It is not about it.

It is a little bit about Kumar Builders (the old owner of KUL Ecoloch) and VTP Realty (the new owner of KUL Ecoloch).

But it is more about those 734 plus Mr. Someones in KUL Ecoloch.

And, certainly, not about M/s Sachin, Sapana, Amol and Co who fought for justice.

I love to visit Sinhagad Fort on Sundays

2019-01-05T20:10:00.000+05:30

Jai Bhavani Jai Shivaji:

I take the 5am or 7am bus at Deccan Gymkhana. Get down at Atkarwadi. Start climbing Sinhagad. Generally, in an hour or so, I reach Pune Darwaja of Sinhagad Fort. After a breakfast of Pithla Bhakri, I spend some time at the fort. Then climb down, catch the bus and come home. I love to do this on Sundays.

For me, Sinhagad is 'Me Time'. The time I spend with myself.

I connect with my soul. I connect with my body.

Yes, I enjoy being with me as much as I enjoy connecting with others.

For me, Sinhgad is more of a spiritual experience than physical.

So Sinhagad visit is more about my future than the glorious past of Maharashtra.

Recently, I have started to spare some of my "Me Time" at Sinhagad to improve my photography skills.

Here are a few recent photographs, I shot at Sinhagad Fort.

Please, have a look and show me the ways to improve my photography skills.

How to do a successful redevelopment of your Co-Operative Housing Society

2019-01-04T18:34:00.000+05:30

Give an old mobile phone and get a new one:

How to do a successful redevelopment of your Co-Operative Housing Society

You know why most of the redevelopment projects fail?

No. Not because of the builders.

Redevelopment projects fail because of the flat owners - because of the members of Co-Operative Housing Society.

The members of the Co-Operative Housing Society (CHS) treat redevelopment as an exchange offer.

Like - give an old mobile phone and get a new one - offer.

Give your old flat to the builder and get a newer and better and larger flat for free!

They assume that a builder is a shopkeeper who exchanges new for an old.

Because of this wrong assumption, the society members start looking for a shopkeeper who will give them bigger and better houses in exchange for their old ones.

Obviously, the society members become victims of some unscrupulous builder who takes advantage of their ignorance and greed. The builder fails to fulfill his promises. Society members realize that the builder has cheated them.

Then the society members realize that the builder is not a shopkeeper, like mobiles, houses are not manufactured in some factory and redevelopment of a housing society is not an exchange offer.

What does redevelopment mean in real estate?

As the name says - redevelopment means the homeowners decide to demolish their old building and construct a new one on the same plot of land.

Since the homeowners are only owners. Owners of the land and building. They don't know to demolish and build a building. So they hire services of someone who knows how to do it. That someone is called 'Builder'.

When you hire services, you have to pay for it. In cash. But society never has enough cash.

So it decides to pay the builder in kind.

Just like in the old days, the farmers used to pay grains to their farm laborers!

What is the right way to redevelop your Co-Operative Housing Society?

Reminding a homeowner who you are and what is your role and what are your responsibilities is tragic but necessary.

How to wash your butt - how to make a cake - how to wear Saree - are some of the most popular videos on YouTube. This proves that people like to learn what they don't know.

"Why should not we make a YouTube video "How to do a successful redevelopment of your Co-Operative Housing Society"!," I said to Advocate Mahesh Gajendra Gadkar.

Mahesh knows the law. As the Chairman, Mahesh is leading the redevelopment of his Co-Operative Housing Society. He is conducting seminars on redevelopment. He is offering consultation to the societies. And soon, Redevelopment Project Management Consultant (PMC) is going to become his main profession.

Mahesh said yes. We made a video. In 3 parts. In Marathi. And people found them very useful!

Here they are. Please, watch!

Who stole the playgrounds for kids in Pune

2019-01-03T16:20:00.000+05:30

Where to go for a morning walk in Pune:

When I post photos of my morning walks on Facebook, many find it difficult to believe that such a place exists in Pune. That's why I started asking my friends - "Where do you go for a morning walk?".

My young friends told me that - Morning walk is for the Senior Citizens and Middle-aged couples. Young prefer Zumba dancing, cycling, jogging or gymming.

Yeah! They were right!! The old guys talked about the old places like - Sarasbaug, Parvati Hills, Taljai Hills. So, obviously, the other day I visited Parvati and Sarasbaug.

To my surprise, I came across more young people than the old guys at Parvati. Besides the traditional Yoga, these young once were busy doing some uniquely creative exercise routines. A group of young girls in shorts told me that they were students of some academy which trains young athletes at Parvati.

Even at Sarasbaug, there was an outdoor gym!

While sipping my first-morning tea at a stall outside Sarasbaug, I told the Chaiwalla - "Pune has become a city of young and healthy people who love to exercise wherever they can!"

"What else can they do? They do it wherever they find an open space," the Chaiwalla said.

"I am not talking about young lovers. I am talking about young guys who love to exercise - workout - व्यायाम - कसरत," I tried to make myself clear.

"Today's kids have no places to play. Builders and corporators have stolen the playgrounds of the kids in Pune," the Chaiwalla said.

"Oh! You are talking about kids and playgrounds!! Today's parents are smart. They know that a kid who plays becomes a Chaiwalla like you or a Blogger like me. Not an IT Engineer like his parents! So, when they book a flat - all they look for is - a separate bedroom for a child - where their child can study and play video games - you know? Nowadays- playing a video game is a career option - not a waste of time! That's why you will find playgrounds in the old bungalow societies in Kothrud - but not in newly developed areas of PMC or PCMC - you know? Some smart Hinjewadi IT engineers make it a point to buy flats in the fringe villages where there are no playgrounds!," I tried to update his knowledge.

What say you?

Do you let your kid waste his energy on a playground?

What is the ROI of mingling among the kids of his own age - wasting time playing some random games which have no international recognition or no global commercial potential?

Isn't it stupid to blame the corporators and builders who develop modern commercial ventures out of useless open spaces in Pune?

Yes! Sports and Games play important role in the economic development!! We all contribute to it by subscribing and watching sports channels.

In short - #5MinuteAur and Khelo India Youth Games Maharashtra 2019 is nothing but entertainment for our kids. Right?

What is so great about Metro Jazz, Baner annex, Mahalunge?

2018-11-01T20:23:00.000+05:30

Upgrade to Metro Jazz:

Swapnil and Soumita, proud flat buyers with Karan Sharma, Sales Manager at Metro Jazz

I wrote a long review of Metro Jazz when it was launched in 2014. I interviewed Mr. Vikas Achalkar, the architect of the project, who claimed that Metro Jazz is for the people who want to upgrade to a better flat than their current ones at Wakad, Baner, Balewadi, and even at Kothrud. Mainly because Metro Jazz offers:
1) More carpet area
2) Bigger room size
3) Better space layout & space utilization
4) Better light, ventilation & privacy
5) Better specifications & amenities & enough parking
6) Better infrastructural services & safety
7) Contemporary elevation.

So, when I heard that the first phase of Metro Jazz has received O. C. (Occupation Certificate) and has started giving possession, I decided to visit it, talk to the flat buyers and check how it has shaped up. Here are my findings:

1) Property Centric Decision:

Generally, first time home buyers in Pune take a location-centric decision.
IT Engineers working in Hinjewadi look for a flat at Hinjewadi, Maan, Marunji, Sus, Mahalunge.
IT engineers working in Eon IT Park Kharadi look for a property at Keshav Nagar, Wagholi.
Someone who has relatives in Kothrud goes for Bavdhan, Bhugaon.

First, they decide their preferred location and then choose the project of their choice which, of course, fits in their budget.

At Metro Jazz, I met a couple of IT Engineers who's preference was not 'a flat near their office'! Not only that! They stretched their budgets to book a flat in Metro Jazz!!

Why?

Because their decision was property centric. They were looking for a good property.

For example, Chetan Sontakke is working in Kharadi but he booked a flat in Metro Jazz. He said -
1) Today, I am working in Kharadi. But who knows? Tomorrow I may join a company in Hinjewadi. Switching jobs is very common in IT.
2) At this point in time, I am 'single' but tomorrow, I may marry a girl who is working in Hinjewadi!
3) If I continue working in Kharadi - in near future - the traveling time may be substantially less because of Metro. Balewadi Stop of Hinjewadi Shivaji Nagar Metro is near to Metro Jazz.
4) Those who are born & brought up in Pune - do they refuse to take a job because the company is far away from their home? No! People from Kothrud join a company in Kharadi - someone born & brought up in Hadapsar joins a company in Hinjewadi. Isn't it?

You may ask - what is so good about the flats in Metro Jazz?
The answer is
1) The flats in Metro Jazz are spacious -
A) 4.5 BHK Flat - 1972 Sq.ft Carpet
B) 3.5 BHK Flat - 1557 Sq.ft. Carpet
C) 3 BHK Flat - 1207 to 1365 Sq.ft. Carpet
D) 2.5 BHK Flat - 1207 Sq.ft. Carpet
E) 2 BHK Flat - 827 to 933 Sq.ft. Carpet

2) The layout of the flat is efficient

3) Specification are top of the line

4) Good light & ventilation in every room

5) Scenic view from the flat

Because of these reasons, flat buyers like Chetan had stretched their budgets.

On any weekend around 30 families visit Metro Jazz.

Frankly, I was surprised to see such a good response to a project which offers properties in this price range -
A) 2 BHK Flat - Rs. 85 Lakhs to 1.02 Crores
B) 2.5 BHK Flat - Rs. 1.12 Crores
C) 3 BHK Flat - Rs. 1.28 to 1.51 Crores
D) 3.5 BHK Flat - Rs. Rs. 1.71 Crores
E) 4.5 BHK Flat - Rs. 2.30 Crores

But when I talked to Abhishek & Binny, who are the first one to take possession and move in Metro Jazz, I realized that Metro Jazz is far better than the others in this price range.

Plus, the progress of the construction and options of ready possession, early possession and under construction makes Metro Jazz more attractive than others in the same league.

2) Construction Quality is as Good as Kasturi Apostrophe:

In their candid video interview, Abhishek and Binny had compared Metro Jazz with the other projects they have visited in the vicinity of Wakad, Baner & Balewadi.

You know why did they decide to book a flat in Metro Jazz?

Because Metro Jazz is as good as Kasturi Apostrophe at Wakad - where they were renting a 3 BHK flat for nearly 4 years!

Because of Kasturi Apostrophe, their expectations about the specifications, flat design, & finishing were quite high. That's why they went on rejecting projects. Till they found Metro Jazz!

Metro Jazz was comfortably fitting in their budget but there was one serious problem. They wanted 'ready to move in' flat. And at Metro Jazz, they had to wait for nearly a year.

Still, they went for Metro Jazz and went on paying rent plus EMI for one year.

Now, they wonder - 'why didn't we go for a 4 BHK. No problem! Eventually, if we feel like going for it - we can get it in Metro Jazz itself!'

3) Good Customer Care:

When these guys praised Metro Jazz, they didn't only talk about property. They talk about the builder and his staff too.

Abhishek very candidly said that this builder 'listens'!

Both of them have Mr. Nitin Chitodkar's - the builder's - phone number. Whenever they have called the builder, the builder has taken their call. Met them at the site office and resolved the issues.

Same about the staff!

'One evening I realized that one street light was off - I called Arjun - He took care of it' said Abhishek.

This builder is approachable and responsible. That's why though we are the first and only residents - our stay is quite comfortable. Said Abhishek.

We wanted some minor modifications - either the builder did it or helped us to get it done. Said Binny.

The first time home buyers who have stretched their budgets to book a flat in Metro Jazz said that the builder is quite considerate about payment terms & schedule.

No wonder, when I told Arjun Mane, the project engineer, that I want to interview a family who has taken possession, he confidently took me to Abhishek & Binny!

4) Good Water Management:

Since there were so many visitors, Karan Sharma (99230 22163), the sales manager, couldn't spare time for me. So, the project engineer showed me all types of flats and clubhouse. At the end of the tour, I told him that - "Arjun, I am Pune real estate blogger. Not a flat buyer. If you really want to impress me, show the infrastructure services in Metro Jazz - mainly water processing system"

"Sure!," Arjun said and took me to the water filtration and R O Plant in the lower parking of the under-construction B building and explained it.

"Metro Jazz is in Mahalunge - not in PMC - but you know what? - the flat owners in Metro Jazz will feel that they are living in PMC!", Arjun said.

"How is it possible?," I asked.

Because of 2 things. 1 - Road. 2 - Water.

We are constructing - at our own cost - the cement concrete approach road and installing street lights.

We have 10 borewells which supply nearly 5 lakh liter water every day - which is more than enough for the 230 flats in Metro Jazz.

Plus because of this filtration & R O Plant, the quality of the water is as good as PMC water - in fact, a little better.

Now, tell me, if there is a proper approach road and ample good quality water - how come anyone can feel that he is not staying in PMC limits?" Arjun asked.

Certainly, this shows that the builder of Metro Jazz is serious about customer comfort!

To know more about Metro Jazz, please, contact Karan Sharma on +919923022163.

I told you these 4 findings because these are useful to you.
But there is a 5th too. Which is mainly useful for me.
That finding is - Most of the flat buyers who have booked flats in Metro Jazz - nearly 70 % of them - have read my review and found it helpful to make the decision!

This has hugely motivated me to write reviews of the ongoing projects in Pune real estate market.
Otherwise, you know, for a while, my focus was more on my YouTube Channel than on my blog.
So, keep visiting!

Yeah, the concept was good.

When I came to know that Metro Jazz has received occupancy certificate and has started giving flat possession, I was curious to find how it has turned out. So, I visited it last Sunday to have a look and talk to the flat buyers. Since Abhishek and Binny were the first and the only residents, I interviewed them!

Akshar Elementa Society Meetup

2018-07-26T11:17:00.000+05:30

Why did the flat owners in Akshar Elementa invite Ravi Karandeekar?:

Meeting the flat buyers in Akshar Elementa was certainly one of my most pleasant experiences. All I had to do there was to listen.

And listening to their ideas and plans about the formation of the Co-Operative Housing Society and taking over the maintenance management was certainly a positive experience.

At Akshar Elementa, there were some issues but not serious disputes with the builder.

No major complaints about the quality of construction and amenities, or about basic infrastructure services like water supply.

A good number of flat owners were present for the meeting. All of them had done their homework, had their own ideas - which they were expressing with a lot of enthusiasm.

There was no frustration. No dissatisfaction. Not even bitterness.
What all was there was positivity and proactivity.

Of course, there were some concerns. For example the road.

But the Akshar Elementa flat owners were aware that they were living in Tathawade, the recently merged village in PCMC, whose development plan has been sanctioned only recently and its implementation has just started.

Plus, they knew that it's the first phase of Akshar Elementa. A few more phases are yet to come. Obviously, the complete picture is not yet clear.

You know what?

Very rarely I come across the flat owners who are not at all repenting for buying a flat.

Generally, flat owners invite me to their society only when the honeymoon is over.

When they find it difficult to face the reality.

When they realize that they have made a big mistake.

When they accept that their builder is not going to fulfil his promises.

Then they invite me to help them to solve their issues.

They pay me handsomely for guiding them to resolve their issues.

For example - Willows Twin Tower Maan Hinjewadi, Florista County Handewadi Road Hadapsar etc.

But Akshar Elementa Tathawade was an exception.

These flat owners didn't invite me because they were in trouble and needed my consultation.

That's why I am still wondering - Why did they invite me!

Is it because - like talking to me on 919860044110 - before booking a flat - inviting me to a society meetup - before taking over the maintenance management - has become an 'in thing' in Pune real estate market!

I guess so.

What say you?

Please, let me know in the comments.

Banks & politicians can not take the victims of DSK fraud for a ride

2018-07-23T10:56:00.000+05:30

Why did DSK F D Holders go to Bombay High Court against Marathe bail?:

In this latest Marathi YouTube video update, Mr. Vijay Kumbhar talks about the case filed by the Fixed Deposit Holders of DSK - D S Kulkarni Developers Ltd - in Bombay High Court against the decision of Shivajinagar Special Court to grant bail to Mr. Ravindra Marathe, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Bank of Maharashtra.

Victims of DSK Fraud filed a criminal application listing all the 'suspicious' things happened in the bail hearing of Mr. Marathe and raised questions about it. Bombay High Court has accepted the petition and has issued notices to all the concerned parties.

At Shivajinagar Special Court when the bail application of Mr. Marathe was heard, DSK F D Holders realized that the Public Prosecutor Advocate Pravin Chavan was not present to plead their case and that the Investigating Officer ACP Nilesh More suddenly changed his stand about the custody of Marathe - so they had appointed their own lawyer to represent themselves. Though their lawyer couldn't argue - the special court accepted the F D Holders' written say.

By taking these steps - Mr. Kumbhar says - F D Holders have given a loud and clear message to the banks & the politicians that no one can take them for a ride. Banks and politicians can not meddle with the law and try to victimize the DSK F D Holders. Watch it!

1 BHK & 2 BHK Flats for Hinjewadi IT Professionals & College Professors!

2018-07-20T16:51:00.000+05:30

1 BHK Flat for Rs. 44 - 46 Lakhs & 2 BHK Flats Rs. 69 - 72 Lakhs
(approx all inclusive property prices) at
Nandanvan Colina, 40 minutes from Hinjewadi, near Tata Motors,
on Katraj Dehu Bypass Road, Ambegaon Budruk, Pune 411 046

Mandar Pujari in the sample flat of Nandanvan Collina - 1 BHK & 2 BHK Flats for Hinjewadi IT Professionals & College Professors!

The other day, I received a call from Hemant Chhatre, my old friend who has just left Paranjape Schemes. Along with Mandar Pujari, a well known home loan broker, Hemant has taken sole selling rights of Nandanvan Collina (MahaRERA Registration Number P52100014132)

"Ravi, Have you stopped reviewing ongoing housing schemes?," Hemant asked.

"Got it! Can I come down right now? Sorry, Hemant, because of this DSK Fraud case I couldn't visit your project for so long. Today's court hearing is over and I am free. I can reach your site in 2 hours time," I said.

"OMG! I am not at the site! I called just to poke you! Okay. You visit. Mandar is there," Hemant said.

"Fine, I am on my way," I said and started walking towards the SSPMS bus stop near Shivajinagar Court.

"Ravi, I hope you haven't forgotten that this Nandanvan Colina is at Ambegaon Budruk!," I said to myself.

"Yes! I know. But it is in Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) limits. Anyways, for Hemant I am ready to go anywhere. He has started on his own. It's my duty to write a few good words about him. Right?," I told myself. Took Jambhulwadi Bus. Got down at Dattanagar Chowk. Crossed Katraj Dehu Bypass Road and reached Nandanvan Colina, next to Tata Motors.

Of course, I didn't forget to take a photos of under construction building and an approach road to Nandanvan Colina from the highway.

I was glad to see that some 8 - 9 slabs of the building were cast.

When I was taking photos, I realized that once the service road of the highway is ready the project will have direct access road to it.

In short, though the Nandanvan Colina is in Ambegaon, basically it is a home on a highway. The highway offers good connectivity to nearby neighbourhoods - like Katraj and Sinhgad Road - as well as, to the faraway industries and offices located on this major bypass in the west Pune.

"Welcome, Karandeekar Saheb!," shaking my hand, said Mandar Pujari (MahaRERA Registration Number A52100008058).

"Let us do it again. I will go out - enter your office - you get up and greet me - once again - something like action replay - OK?," I said.

"Why? Aren't you Ravi Karandeekar?," He asked.

"I am Ravi Karandeekar and you are Mandar Pujari. But something is unusual. Don't know what. So let us do it again," I requested Mandar.

"I know what it is!," Mandar said.

"What?," I asked.

"We were not expecting someone like you in the sales office of a housing scheme in Ambegaon Budruk - You know what? We have decided to book in this project only because of you. - most of the buyers who have booked flats in this project have already told this to me many times. You also felt the same. I am the unusual - unexpected - surprise. Am I right?," Mandar said.

"Yes! You are!! You know? When Hemant told me about this - sole selling and all - I was happy - but a project in Ambegaon Budruk? I was very much disappointed. You deserve a premium project in some hot location - not some run of the mill project in some downmarket location - both of you are experienced & successful professionals - this is like an IIT Graduate running a tyre puncture repair shop on the highway. I am very upset. I am here only to find out why did you take this project for marketing?," I said.

"Have a look at the sample flat and tell me whether my decision is right or wrong," getting up Mandar said.

On the way, Mandar told me about the builder and the layout of the project. I liked the 2 level parking and the floor lobby.

There are 3 + 3 flats on the each floor - 2 units of 2 BHK - approx 741 - 789 sq ft carpet + 1 unit of 1 BHK - approx 453 - 483 sq ft carpet.

He opened the door of the sample flat, and invited me in. For a moment I stopped at the entrance lobby of the sample flat and went on looking - I do not know for how long. I took out my camera and went on taking photos.

I liked the efficient layout of the flat. Yeah, this is not one more run of the mill project in Ambegaon Budruk. Certainly, it is a thoughtfully designed flat for those who are on the rise.

"Who are your buyers?," I asked.

"All intelligencia - professors, professional, Hinjewadi IT engineers, investors from Kothrud - Satara - Wai - Kolhapur," said Mandar.

"Why?," I asked.

"Connectivity of the highway," Mandar said.

"No! Because they like to deal with Professor Mandar Pujari," pointing at his photo on the screen of my camera, I said.

What about you? Does highway connectivity matter to you?

If yes, please, call Mandar Pujari on 91 92255 00747 and visit Nandanvan Colina near Tata Motors on Katraj Dehu Bypass Road.

Mandar Pujari - Visit Sample Flat of Nandanvan Colina, Ambegaon Budruk, Pune. 1 BHK & 2 BHK Flats for Hinjewadi IT Professionals & College Professors!

Available! Ready possession 2 BHK Flats on Baner Pashan Link Road at Meadows Habitat!!

2018-07-18T12:27:00.000+05:30

Meadows Habitat Pashan - Co-Operative Housing Society of the heroes, by the heroes, for the heroes!

Ganesh Tikhe, 91 94220 02525 - Meadows Habitat Ready Possession 2 BHK Flats - 871 sq ft. - 1169 sq ft. approx for Rs. 70 - 95 Lakhs approx - on Pashan Baner Link Road Pune Maharashtra India

"Ravi Karandeekar, please, remove those YouTube videos - you have posted in 2012. Whenever someone Googles 'Meadows Habitat Pashan Pune' he sees those videos," Ganesh Tikhe said.

"Good! Then, why do you want to remove those videos?," I asked.

"Those videos are about the problems our society was facing in 2012 - over the years we have solved those problems - now, in 2018 - we are one of the best co-operative housing societies in Baner - Balewadi - Pashan. We have to convince this to everyone who wants to buy a resale flat - or a brand new flat - unused flat - investor's flat - builder's flat - landlord's flat - in our society," Ganesh Tikhe said.

"Yes! I know!! So many buyers have called me and asked - 'Is it safe to buy a flat at Meadows Habitat?," I said.

"Yeah....that's the problem.....those videos are history....delete that history....remove those videos....it will make Meadows Habitat attractive property," Ganesh Tikhe said.

"No. Sorry. I will not remove those videos," I said.

"Why?," Ganesh Tikhe asked.

"There are 3 reasons," I said.

"First - I don't delete a blog or a video - once I publish it. That's my rule. That's why those videos are there - what's your guess - in the last 6 years - from 2012 to 2018 - nobody has ever told me to remove my blog - my video?," I asked.

"What is your second reason?," Ganesh Tikhe asked.

"The second reason is - No! It will not make Meadows Habitat - attractive - best buy!! You know why? Because - when you book a flat - you consider - trustworthiness - reliability - of the builder - whereas, when you buy a ready possession flat - a resale flat - you consider who are the residents in that society - how are they - their social - cultural - financial profile - the quality of life in the society - how is the society managed - how is the society maintained - all those videos prove that you - the flat owners in Meadows Habitat - are the brave people - heroes - who have the guts to fight for their rights - you are heroes - and we love heroes. Everyone wishes to live like a hero. If we remove those videos, how come a new flat buyer will come to know that Meadows Habitat offers an opportunity to live like a hero?," I asked.

"But it takes time to explain - we have to take a lot of efforts to convince the buyers...," Ganesh Tikhe said.

"That's the point.....we have to make a video which tells the story of your heroic fight - we have to make a video which talks about how you are doing today - if we we do that, selling ready possession flats in your society would be easy - because that video will tell the buyers that Meadows Habitat is the best place to raise a family - what say you?," I asked.

"That makes sense - you know? We have some 20 - 25 flats - all spacious 2 BHK Terrace Flats - 871 to 1169 sq ft approximate saleable - in the price range of - say - 67 to 95 lakhs - what is the 3rd reason?," Ganesh Tikhe asked.

"The 3rd reason is - in those videos you talk about the problems you faced at the time of possession in 2012 - those are common problems you face in most of the projects - but very very few flat buyers have guts to open their mouth against injustice - your videos along with videos on Willows Twin Tower at Maan - Hinjewadi and Florista County on Handewadi Road at Hadapsar - not only create awareness about the problems of booking a flat in under construction project - but tells what precautions one should take while booking a flat and while taking a possession of your flat. By asking me to remove your videos - I feel that - you are acting against them - you are putting their life in danger - do you want to do that?," I asked.

"No! In fact, I want to show the way to fight for our rights - I want to help the flat buyers who have become the victims of builders - let us make a video about our fight and teach them how to fight for their rights - how to manage the society - done!," said Ganesh Tikhe.

This is the short report about my meeting with Ganesh Tikhe of Meadows Habitat on Pashan Baner Link Road.

What say you?

Are you interested in knowing what to do when the construction quality is not good
- amenities promised in the brochure are not provided
- completion certificate is obtained but the project is not complete
- approach road is not proper
- basic infrastructure services in the project, like sewage treatment plant, are not working
- society is not formed
- conveyance is not done
- maintenance charges are too high - etc?

Are you interested in knowing what to do when the builder avoids to solve those problems?

By the way, please, tell me in the comments -
if you are working in Hinjewadi

A) instead of booking a flat in some under construction project in a fringe village like Maan, Hinjewadi, Marunji, Sus, Mahalunge
- where basic urban infrastructure services are not available
or
B) in any under construction project in areas like Tathawade, Punawale, Ravet, Kiwale
- where urbanization has just started

wouldn't you like to buy a resale or a ready possession flat in Meadows Habitat on Baner Pashan Link Road if your budget permits?

I would also like to know -

If you want to buy a flat in Aundh, Pashan, Baner, Balewadi
- in which project would like to buy a resale or a ready possession flat?

A) In Meadows Habitat where the flat owners have not only discussed their problems in the video
but also solved them successfully and are living happily

or

B) In some society where flat owners are still suffering silently and are living a life of a victim
- who are still not the true owner of their property because the conveyance is not yet done
- who are paying exorbitant maintenance charges
- in a society which is not managed properly
- in a society where their is no unity - no strong bond among the flat owners?

I am sure, you will prefer Meadows Habitat!

In that case, please, contact Ganesh Tikhe on 91 94220 02525.

Property Prices in Western Pune

2018-07-10T22:05:00.000+05:30

Rashan ki Dukan v/s Shopping Mall of Properties:

Ravi Karandeekar with Hemant Chavan and his family at the stall of Radhika Constructions - www.radhikahomes.com - at IREE Indian Real Estate Expo - Showcasing Properties in Western Pune - Orchid Hotel, Balewadi, Pune, 7th & 8th July 2018

Visiting property exhibition has become a boring experience.
Not only for me but for all flat buyers in Pune.

Even builders are fed up with it.
That's why very few builders participate and a very few flat buyers bother to visit.

Still, I enjoyed the property exhibition organized last weekend.
It was called something like - IREE Real Estate Expo - Monsoon Dhamaka - Exhibition of properties in Western Pune.
A few participating builders didn't disappoint me.
A few visitors didn't discourage me.

After spending a few hours at the exhibition - I asked myself - "Ravi Karandeekar, why are you enjoying this exhibition so much?"

"Look around.... this exhibition is like a shopping mall of properties.... look at the huge stock of properties....look at the vast range of property prices....fitting in every pocket...abundant supply and affordable prices...any property buyer will enjoy the experience of shopping in this exhibition!," I told myself.

"Are you out of your mind? There are very few builders and very few flat buyers....it's almost a flop show," I said.

"The numbers may be less - but the experience of this exhibition is much more exciting than the experience of standing in a cue in front of the 'Rashan ki Dukan' - what say you?," I challenged myself.

"Rashan ki Dukan? Are you talking about the Rashan ki Dukan of Godrej Elements at Hinjewadi?," I asked myself.

"Yeah! Compared to that experience - isn't this experience more enjoyable? Token..standing in a que is humiliating....allottees....sounds like beggars...we are investors ... stakeholders ... partners .... shareholders .... owners of the project - isn't it? ..... and there is no scarcity of housing...no rationing of houses...in fact, there is oversupply," I said.

"Yes, of course! Compared to that 'Rashan ki Dukan' - this exhibition is a mall! Have a great time! Enjoy shopping!! Enjoy the abundant stock of properties! Exercise your choice! The days of scarcity are over. Now, it's buyers market," I told myself.

"Yeah! Here customer is king!!," I said went on enjoying the experience.

Here are some of the properties, which grabbed my attention. Have a look!

"Treat me as a flat buyer," I requested Hemant Chavan of Radhika Constructions.

"That's how we treat every visitor," said Hemant and told Varsha, the sales executive, to attend me.

"Elysium is a 12 Story Single Standalone Building Project of 2 BHK & 3 BHK Luxurious Homes at Marunji - in the vicinity of Hinjewadi IT Park - it has all essential amenities like - clubhouse, landscaped garden, children's play area etc," Varsha said.

"Do you give a video door phone?," like an intelligent IT engineer, I asked.

"Yes, of course! Video door phone as well as CCTV for the security," Varsha said.

"You are really luxurious - how much for a 2 bhk?," I asked.

"2 BHK Flats are in the price range of Rs. 47.16 to 63.42 Lakhs and 3 BHKs from 76.61 to 79.53 Lakhs," pointing at the property price list, Varsha said.

"Negotiable?," I asked.

"Fixed," Varsha said.

"Everyone is negotiating - offering discounts," I said.

"If you are working in Hinjewadi - I can give you a better deal - A 2 BHK Flat for around 40 Lakhs - 10 minutes from Hinjewadi - on Pirangut Road - at Ambarwet," Varsha said.

"Does it comes with a video door phone?," like an intelligent IT engineer, I asked.

"No. But I will install one in your flat as a special exhibition offer," Varsha said.

"Done. What is the name of the project?," I said.

"Srinivasa," Varsha said.

Actually, it didn't happen like this. I made it up. Writing about property prices is very boring. So, I entertained myself by writing an imaginary incident. However, Radhika Constructions really has two on going projects - 1) Elysium - MahaRERA Registration Number - P5210004478 and 2) Srinivasa - MahaRERA Registration Number P52100015587.

TCG Real Estate:

In just 3 minutes, Varsha, the sales executive in the stall, gave me the complete idea about 'The Cliff Garden' - www.thecliffgarden.com - MahaRERA Registration Numbers P52100004906 & P52100015759 - TCG's affordable housing project located at a walking distance from proposed Metro Station at Hinjewadi Phase 3.

1) The Cliff Garden is planned in such a away that all buildings have free access to wind flowing from west & north-west. That's why every flat will have good ventilation.

2) Because of the distance between the buildings you get 'privacy' & 'good view'.

3) The project layout is designed keeping in mind the sun's path so that every room in every flat will have sufficient daylight.

Not only that!

4) The Cliff Garden is constructed by using the latest precast construction technology - beams, columns and slabs are manufactured in the factory and assembled at the site - which assures speedy construction and timely possession.

5) The 'Eco-Friendly' Cliff Garden will harvest - conserve & recycle water, will have solar street lights & water heaters, Organic Waste Composter and even Electric Vehicle Charging Ports!

"WoW!" I said.

"And we have made it very very very easy for you to buy a flat in The Clif Garden!," Varsha said.

"How easy?," I asked.

6) "No Pre-EMI till possession - No Processing Fee - No Infra Charges - No Premium View Charges - No Floor Rise - Pay only 5% or 10% now & the rest on possession! 5-85-5-5 and 10-70-10-10 payment schemes from HDFC," pointing at 'Smile Fest' leaflet, Varsha said.

Godrej Elements Hinjewadi receives moderate response

Godrej Elements Allottees, you are so brave!

Godrej Elements Hinjewadi receives moderate response

At last, somehow I managed to gather strength to conquer fear and visited Godrej Elements' flat allotment event at Radisson Hotel on Sunday evening.

The allotment event was almost over.

Thank God! Only a couple of families were there.

Means, I didn't have to face the big crowd of brave people who have the guts to apply for a flat in Godrej Elements.

Menas, I didn't have to feel shy about me. I didn't have to feel inferior human being. No one was there to remind me what a coward I am.

"How was the response? You face tells me that you must have alloted all 525 units. Right?," I asked an executive doing something on his laptop.

"I am not sure. But, someone from CRM, told me around 250 - 300," the executive on the laptop said.

"That's huge!," I said.

"Considering the ticket size & competition - it was a good response," the executive on the laptop said.

"Hatts off to you! Only Godrej can sell 80 lakhs to 1 crore 2 bhk flat in Hinjewadi!!," I said.

"Yes! Godrej is the number one brand in Indian property market," the executive on the laptop said.

"And can offer a discount of 4 lakhs!," I said.

"Yes! No 3,00,000 Clubhouse Charges - No 1,00,000 MSEB Charges - No 25,000 Legal Charges - the discount offer worked," the executive on the laptop said.

"That's the benefit of going with the corporate developer. A good small local builder in Pune can't give you this type of a discount. Because a good small local builder in Pune does not charge separately for Clubhouse - MSEB - Legal!," I said.

"Yes! Godrej is the number one brand in Indian property market," the executive on the laptop said.

"Yes, of course! Can you tell me where can I find Mr. Kumar?," I asked.

"I am 'channel partner'. If he is an employee - you can find him upstairs," the executive on the laptop said.

"Thanks!," I said and took his leave. Wondering whether Mr. Kumar - whom I met last time - was an employee or 'channel partner'!

"You are late - look - the event organizers are packing and moving - if you had come in the afternoon you could have seen all hoopla - entertainment - food - excitement - all that jazz. Now, I can't even offer you a cup of coffee," Mr. Kumar said.

"I have seen all that at Godrej 24 event but failed to understand the purpose," I said.

"Godrej is the number one brand in Indian property market - whatever we do - we do it in a style," Mr. Kumar said.

"But buying a home is a serious decision - how can you make a serious decision in this atmosphere - halla gulla - high pressure - situation that triggers anxiety?," I asked.

"When you make a decision to go with Godrej - it's not a serious matter - it's a time to celebrate - because Godrej is the number one brand in Indian property market," Mr. Kumar said.

"Yes, of course, Godrej is the number one brand in Indian property market. But, why is Godrej hell-bent on booking all flats on one weekend - at the launch?," I asked.

"Two reasons. 1) Because Godrej can! In fact, every builder in Pune would like to do that. But they can't. 2) 100 per cent bookings - means the builder does not have to put his own money - the builder keeps on getting flat buyers' installments - assured interest free money supply!," said Mr. Kumar.

"Good for the builder! But what is the flat buyer's benefit?," I asked.

"100 percent bookings - means non stop construction and timely possession - win win situation," Mr. Kumar said.

"Total focus on completion of the project - what about 'profits' - what about 'property appreciation' - no 'property rate' difference between the launch and completion of the project?," I asked.

"Property appreciation - property rates going up - all history - no more reality - don't cash on the future - no tomorrow - only today matters - only we have realized this and are acting on it - that's why Godrej is the number one brand in Indian property market," Mr. Kumar said.

OMG! Godrej Elements didn't receive 100 percent bookings. Now, what will happen to those who have booked? I asked myself. Suddenly, I started trembling with fear.

Panic attack! I got the same kind of panic attack when I visited the site office of Godrej Elements at Hinjewadi, a few days ago.

The executive who attended me - I don't know whether she was a staff or a channel partner - told me that the theme of Godrej Elements is #LiveFree. To let you enjoy worry free life, we have incorporated 21 elements of assurance which ensure freedom from worry for your loved ones - that's why this project is called Godrej Elements.

And then came the list of 21 elements -

1) Auto Volt System -

"It's not safe to keep your jewelry at home. Not even at the locker in the bank."

"Why bank lockers are not safe?" - I asked.

"Because of the human element involved in bank lockers. And humans are not trustworthy. So we have robot managed volts. Unlike humans robots are reliable"

"OMG! I need to go home. I am worried about my wife's jewelry" - I said.

2) Vehicle Management System -

"Car parking is - when you leave for the office and return home - time consuming and troublesome. Fights with a neighbor over a car park are frequent, damaging and denting a parked car is usual phenomenon, everyday thieves steal cars. Right? That's why vehicle management system!"

"Yes! Are you finished? I am worried about my car parked outside" - I murmured.

3) Visitor Management System -

"Thieves - rapist - pedofiles - enter as visitors - or a visitor can steal - rape - molest. Not only that! Your maid - newspaper-wala - milkman - can commit a crime - that's why visitor management system"

"Got it. Visitors, maids, newspaper-wala, milkman all are dangerous," - I said.

4) Access Control System -

"Anyone can walk in and do anything to you - even use your amenities - that's why Access Control System"

"World is a dangerous place," - I said to myself.

5) IP Series Video Door Phone -

"What if some criminal succeeds in reaching your door? Don't worry. There is an IP Series Video Door Phone!"

"I will always hold it tight. Will never keep it down," - I thought.

6) Master Monitoring App -

"You are in your home. How will you come to know if something dangerous is happening in your society? No problem. Master Monitoring App is there!"

"My one eye will be always on the app - even in sleep," - I told him.

7) Geo Tags for kids -

"Crimes against kids are rising. Kids are committing suicides. Kids are running away. Kids are doing drugs. Kids have become a big headache. No problem. Make them wear geotag bracelet"

"Same about spouses - husbands and wives - are worried about each other too. What about them?," - I asked.

"Put geotag bracelet on your spouse - plain & simple"

"Yeah, living bodies have become unpredictable," - I thought.

8) Kid-Safe Railings -

"Kids can break the glass railings and can fall down accidentally or kids can intentionally jump down - so kidsafe steel railings"

"Kids are a dangerous species," - I told myself.

9) Latches on Toilet Seat Covers -

"Kids fall in the commode - so the latches on the toilet seat covers"

"Really! Do they fall in the commod?," - I asked.

"Yes, research has proved that!"

"Kids are big nuisance," - I felt.

10) Child-Safe Locks on Kitchen Cabinets -

"Kids can not eat or drink something which they are not supposed to eat or drink - that's why child-safe locks on kitchen cabinets"

"Yeah! There are no more 'Butter eating Bal Krishna' - what we have are freaking C section babies," - I thought.

11) ShockProof Switchboards -

"Electricity and shock are inseparable. So, there are ShockProof switchboards"

"Yeah, considering our ever increasing need of power outlets - a home has become an electric trap," - I said.

12) Child Friendly Locks on Doors -

"When your kid locks himself in - you have no option but to break the door or call the fire brigade - so, child friendly locks"

"Kids are problems," - I realized.

13) Motion Sensor Lights -

"Save power - save electricity charges - but it doesn't mean that at the middle of night you have to go to washroom in the dark - because there are motion sensor lights"

"Yeah, electricity is very expensive," - I said.

14) Personal Medical Alert System inside Home -

"Heart attacks are common - not only among elderly people but among young IT professionals too - so, for any type of personal medical emergency there is an alert system"

"Yeah, no one comes with an expiry date," - I said to myself.

15) Handrails inside Bathrooms -

"Bathrooms are well known for accidents - so, there are handrails"

"Yeah, no place is safe - there is a danger in every nook and corner of your home," - I thought.

16) Coarse and Anti Skid Tiles in Toilets and Terrace -

"To prevent you from falling and breaking your bones - there are anti skid tiles in the toilets and terrace"

"Why are our bones are so fragile? As fast as we can, we need to evolve as boneless creatures," - I said to myself.

17) Shuttle Services Armed with CCTV & Security Personnel -

"We have tackled fearful situations inside your home as well as outside your home - that's why an exclusive bus service - armed with CCTV & Security Personnel"

"Is moving around in Hinjewadi so dangerous?," - I asked.

"Don't you read newspapers? Crime rate is increasing day by day"

"Are you finished? I gotta go. I am not feeling safe anymore," - I said.

18) 4 in 1 Biometric Accesses to Home Entrance -

"House-breaking is rampant - so one lock is not enough - that's why there will be 4 in 1 biometric access"

"Look at my house keys - for years my house has 7 Lever Godrej Navtal Locks - for the first time in my life - I am worried about my home - please, let me go," - I requested.

19) Biometric Access to Clubhouse -

"Don't get frightened - face the fear - upgrade yourself - days of levers - nuts - bolts - spanner - are over - that's why even a clubhouse has 'biometric access'"

"Means - days of innocence - humanity - trust - are over - world has become a dangerous place - our life is constantly threatened - mostly by other human beings - and ultimately by material things we possess or consume - I got it - but you know what? - I am frightened. I haven't experienced so much fear even when while watching horror movies on my laptop. Please, let me go," I
begged the executive of Godrej Elements. Staff or channel partner. Whoever it was.

"You took me wrong. I am not trying to frighten you. I was offering solutions to the current problems we all are facing. You know? How risky our life has become? Visit Hinjewadi police chowki or read the newspapers to know the crime rates in this part of town. We are here to help you to live worry free life. #LiveFree is our theme. Don't forget that we are the owners of GoodKnight brand which keeps you safe from the mosquitoes - and now, - we want to protect you from all other dangers in this world," the executive said.

"You are right. But I am frightened. Please, let me go," I said and literally ran out of the office.

There was no one on the road. The cars and bikes were zooming fast. Somehow, I managed to cross the road and reached the bus stop at Phase 1.

After sometime, I realized that I was less frightened.

"Ravi, you are a Pune real estate blogger. Not a flat buyer. The fear frightened you. Who knows? The same fear may motivate some flat buyer to take an action. Motivate him to apply for a flat!," I said to myself.

"May be....," I told myself. But my fear went on spirling.

Dealing with an imaginary fear of an unwanted visitor entering your housing project or a thief breaking in your flat is easy to deal with. Because, the builder has offered you a solution to solve that imaginary problem.

But, what about the real threats?

What would a flat buyer do when he will face the real threats?

Because the builder has not offered him any solution to deal with the real threats.

The real threats of living in a fringe village which has no basic urban infrastructural services - like drinking water supply, garbage management system, sewage management system, fire fighting system, no proper roads, frequent power failures, no storm water management etc.?

"What is so fearful about it? In India there are thousands of villages in which lakhs of people are living. They are surviving. Isn't it, Ravi? So, stop worrying!," I told myself.

No I couldn't stop worrying. I couldn't overcome the fear. At last, somehow, I managed to gather strength to visit the allotment event of Godrej Elements. Only after, the brave flat buyers had left the venue.

Looking at the moderate response to Godrej Elements - I conveniently assume - there are a few more people in Pune - who are like me. Who can't deal with a fear of living in a fringe village.

DSK Fraud & Bank of Maharashtra - It's just bail. Not an acquittal.

2018-07-01T20:27:00.000+05:30

DSK F D Holders, Don't get upset. Bail is a rule. Jail is an exception.

In this week, Special Judge S N Desai of MPID Court Pune granted bail not only to Ravindra Marathe, CEO & MD, but to other top officers of Bank of Maharashtra - Executive Director Rajendra Gupta, Zonal Manager Nityanand Deshpande, former CMD Sushil Muhnot.

Yes, this was disheartening.

But dear DSK F D Holders, don't get depressed.

It was just bail.

The special judge didn't pronounce the top officers of MahaBank 'Not Guilty'.

The Indian Judiciary System believes that bail is a rule and jail is an exception.

The Supreme Court of India, has recently urged all judges to show 'Humane Attitude' while dealing with an application for remanding a suspect or an accused person to police custody or judicial custody.

Of course, we have noticed that some unusual actions have taken place and as per law we have filed a complaint against it in Bombay High Court.

We are going to take actions against those politicians who are meddling with judiciary.

But the point is granting bail is not going to affect our case.

Our Special Public Prosecutor Advocate Pravin Chavan and Investigating Officer ACP Nilesh More are as motivated and as dedicated they were before.

So don't get too emotional about bail to MahaBank officials.

Says Mr. Vijay Kumbhar in this Marathi YouTube video update about DSK Fraud.

DSK F D Holders, don't lose faith in judiciary

"F. D. Holders, we might have lost the battle but not the war"
- Vijay Kumbhar

In this week, we lost a court battle against the unholy nexus of corrupt Indian banking industry, big business houses and politicians.

ACP Neelesh More had to let go Ravindra Marathe, CMD, Bank of Maharashtra.

Special Public Prosecutor Pravin Chavan was absent.

Our, DSK Victims', advocate Amit Deshpande couldn't speak in the court but the judge has accepted his written objections.

Overall feeling is F D Holders were overpowered.

Will SPP Pravin Chavan continue to represent us? F D Holders are worried.

Will ACP Nilesh More be removed from our case? F D Holders are worried.

In the absence of these two dynamic & dedicated officers of the law, will we get justice? F D Holders are worried.

If this unholy nexus continue to protect the accused bankers - how can we get our money back? F D Holders are worried.

True. The case has taken a wrong turn. Situation is worrisome. Feeling hopeless is an obvious reaction.

But don't forget that they can avoid the arrest but they can not give clean chit to the accused.

Because proofs are solid. And, ultimately, justice prevails.

So, do not give up.

Do not think of hurting yourself.

Cowards end their own life.

Braves keep fighting till they are alive.

True we have lost a battle. But we will win the war.

Don't lose faith in judiciary.

In spite of all pressures & pulls, Ravindra Marathe is still in the custody!

Says Vijay Kumbhar in this Marathi YouTube Video update of DSK Fraud. Please, watch.

DSK F D Holders raise objection against out of the way bail granting plans to CMD of Bank of Maharashtra

2018-06-25T09:35:00.000+05:30

DSK F D Holders' complaint to Bombay High Court against granting of bail to Ravindra Marathe, CMD of Bank of Maharashtra, in the Pune District Court of Hon. Judge Sardesai:

DSK F D Holders complaint to Bombay High Court against granting of bail to Ravindra Marathe, CMD of Bank of Maharashtra, in the Pune District Court of Hon. Judge Sardesai:

"What is the urgency to save fraudulent people from law & order?" question DSK F D Holders in their complaint email to Bombay High Court.

"If the courts function like this in doubtful manner, going out of the way, not following the procedure, common man will lose faith in Judiciary." warn DSK F D Holders.

"In view of the foregoing, these proceedings before the Hon'ble Sardesai Court should be suspended & moved to some other place." request DSK F D Holders to Bombay High Court.

Here is the complaint email sent to Bombay High Court:

Subject: Out of the way bail granting plans to CMD of BoM Mr. Marathe.

To: hcbom.mah@nic.in

To: 1)Hon'ble Chief Justice, Bombay High Court, Mumbai
2) Hon'ble Registrar General, Bombay High Court, Mumbai.

Respected Sir/s,

Subject: Objection for granting of bail to Bank Of Maharashtra's CMD Mr. Marathe in the Pune District Court of Hon. Judge Sardesai.

D S Kulkarni investment scam is to the tune of 2064 crores. In this fraudulent matter, a criminal case has been registered with Pune Police. During the investigation, Police have arrested several persons. In this matter CMD of Bank Of Maharashtra & others have been arrested.

Earlier bail application was not pressed by thr said Mr. Marathe. Fresh application was moved for bail, at 5.40 p.m.on 23rd June 2018.
Before that, Mr. Marathe was arrested by Pune Police and remanded to Police Custody.

In the said fresh bail application, surprisingly,
Police Custody was converted into Magistrate Custody and it was done only in this case as a special case.

As per our Information, no medical reports issued by any Doctor of Government Hospital for admitting Mr. Marathe in Hospital for Medical Treatment.
Thus, without obtaining any medical report, Mr. Marathe was shifted to a private hospital at 7.00 p.m.

When in the Fresh Bail application of Mr. Marathe was moved, Hon'ble Judge Sardesai passed an order for say of the Public Prosecutor and Investigation Officer on the said bail application.

Government of Maharashtra has appointed Special PP Pravin Chavan in this matter, but he was not present for this matter. Local PP was allowed to represent this matter, who according to us, was not well informed about the facts of this case.

Hon'ble Judge Sardesai asked the PP for filing immediate say in the matter.

Your Honour, travel time in each direction from the District Court to Police Commissioner's office is minimum 20/25 minutes. Preparation of documents, paper work, report etc. takes approximately one hour.

We have no knowledge whether proper say was given and objection taken or not.

After that Hon'ble Judge Sardesai has asked the Advocate representing Mr. Marathe, said that if you ask for bail, only then I will be able to grant it. Hon'ble Judge asked PP for State's NOC to grant the bail to Mr. Marathe.

Now this matter is posted for hearing on 25th June 2018 at 10.30 a.m.

According to our information, Hon'ble District Judge, Pune was also present in the chamber of Hon'ble Judge Sardesai.

All these proceedings were conducted in the chamber of Hon'ble Sardesai.

Surprisingly, the day when these proceedings were conducted, i.e. on 23rd June 2018, it happens to be 4th Saturday, which happens to be a government holiday. Even then proceedings were conducted for reasons not known to us.

We also understand that the bail application was not registered and cannot be traced online on the official website of Courts & still the hearing was conducted by the Hon'ble Judge Sardesai.

If the courts function like this in doubtful manner, going out of the way, not following the procedure, common man will lose faith in Judiciary.

When the courts open at 11.00 a.m. what is the need to keep the matter for hearing at 10.30 a.m. on 25th June 2018, is the biggest question in our minds.

What is the urgency to save fraudulent people from law & order. We feel that, in this matter lots of illegal things are happening & have happened previously.

According to our information, to grant bail to Mr. Marathe, all arrangements are in place & also the order for granting bail is awaiting signature of Hon'ble Judge Sardesai.

In view of the foregoing, these proceedings before the Hon'ble Sardesai Court should be suspended & moved to some other place.

Kindly look into this seriously.

Thanking you,

DSK Flat Buyers & F D Holders, get ready to fight with the corrupt Indian banking system

2018-06-23T10:23:00.000+05:30

The only way to get possession of your flats & recover your life saving looted by Bunty aur Babli (DSK & Hemanti Kulkarni) is to defeat corrupt Indian banking industry backed by the big business houses, politicians & bureaucrats:

After Special Public Prosecutor Pravin Chavan and ACP Nilesh More arrested Bank of Maharashtra Chief Executive Officer Ravindra Marathe, an executive director, Rajendra Gupta, Zonal Manager Nityanand Deshpande, and former CMD Sushil Muhnot, entire banking industry opened war against them. All national mainstream media was flooded with the news stories attacking the officers of the law.

Bankers suspect foul play in arrest of Bank of Maharashtra CEO - said The Economic Times. Quoting an anonymous chief executive of some bank, the news said - “More and more bankers come under investigative net without any proof of malfeasance. A person can be taken into custody if he is not cooperating. But when the senior official of a bank cooperated with investigative agencies, there was no need for the arrest. This shows that there is an element of foul plan which is going to affect the morale of bankers.”

The anonymous chief executive conveniently forgot that the Judge S N Sardesai of Special Sessions Court has sent the bank executives to the police custody!

Arrest of Bank of Maharashtra officials unwarranted: Indian Banks’ Association (IBA) - was the headline of The Hindu Business Line. Why was the arrest "Unwarranted"? Read this - Senior officials of the bank (Bank of Maharashtra) have been arrested for criminal conspiracy and in violation of the Maharashtra Protection of Interest of Depositors (MPID) in Financial Establishment Act, 1999. Underscoring that the Act is not applicable to banks, Kannan explained the banker is not concerned with the activity of taking and repayment of deposits by the company (DSK Developers in the case of Bank of Maharashtra). Hence, the arrest (of the MD & CEO and ED) is unwarranted.

While making this statement, the chief executive of IBA conveniently forgot under which sections of Indian Penal Code (IPC) these bank officials were booked. BOM executives were booked under these section of IPC - 120(B), 406, 409, 420, 465, 467, 468, 471, 109 r/w 34 IPC & 13(1)(c) r/w 13(2). Not under MPID.

Point is, dear DSK F D Holders & Flat Buyers, now, your enemy is not only DSK but the entire corrupt system. So, unite and support Special Public Prosecutor Pravin Chavan & ACP Nilesh More and get ready to fight against the entire corrupt system. Says Mr. Vijay Kumbhar in this Marathi YouTube video. - https://youtu.be/D7Am5ttueME
