Eco-Sensitive initiatives: KBMC

HARVESTING RAIN FOR 24/7 WATER:•Kulgaon-Badlapur, one of the faster growing towns in Mumbai, has taken the age-old tradition of rainwater harvesting to a whole new level.•In March 2007, Badlapur residents installed a rainwater harvesting demonstration unit in their town using modern methods. •About 2,000 residents-beneficiaries now get water 24 hours a day, 7 days a week from Badlapur’s rainwater harvesting system, which provides about 100 liters per person per day—more than enough to meet washing, toileting, and other domestic water needs. •It also unburdens the demand for water from the piped system, which is now only used for drinking and cooking purposes. A big plus of the system is that less water is taken from groundwater sources.

• With its own Central Business District, developed over 200 acres, Palava city developed by Lodha Developers will offer over 2.5 lac professionals their choice of employment in luxurious, fully-equipped office complexes that are home to global IT and ITES companies, financial institutions and other corporations.

Challenges: Kalyan-Dombivli• Many competitors in the residential market – Godrej, Lok group, Ajmera group, Mohan group, Deshmukh Brothers, D.S.K. group, Mantri group, Ravi Constructions, Lodha group, Nirmal Lifestyles.• Traditionally developed areas in vicinity of the railway stations are congested leaving no scope for new planned development.• The location of an apt land parcel required for development in the Kalyan-Dombivli belt may be relatively remote in nature.• Providing world class amenities at competitive property rates to be at par with similar projects.• Moreover, these property rates maybe required to be further discounted.• Infrastructure development needs to be at par with the recent trends in Real Estate.• Traffic engineering concept needs to be applied as road infrastructure forms the lifeline of a city.• Un-interupted power supply to be assured and unplanned power-cuts to be avoided as these are major concerns in this area.

Raj group, Marathon, Pranjee & Mohan group. • Developed areas in vicinity of the railway stations are congested leaving no scope for new development.• The region is yet to see an entry by a major player of the real estate sector.• The location of an apt land parcel required for development may be remote in nature.• Developed infrastructure ,e.g. good road network, is absent, as per current situation.• Amenities are scattered and insufficient.• Infrastructure development is steady yet slow.• Transportation options are limited, bare minimum for the existing population.• Un-interupted power supply to be assured and unplanned power-cuts to be avoided as these are major

concerns as this area suffers load shedding for almost 5 hours in a day..

Ranking of selected land parcels:

Inference: Kalyan-Dombivli• Residential property markets in Kalyan-Dombivli witnessed steady demand over last 3-4 years with an

increase in migration of working class population.• Land in prime locations in Khadakpada, Godrej Hill and Shil Phata areas is extremely costly with per Sq.Ft

cost is as high as Rs.3200• Rapid growth is observed in Khadakpada, Godrej hill, Adharwadi, Ambivli, Kalyan-Bhiwandi Shil Phata road

and Nandivli areas.• A strong demand for 2-BHK and 3BHK homes in the range of 900 sft to 1500 sft.• Amenities such as swimming pool, jogging track, Acupressure Park, children’s play area, cycling track,

community hall, etc. are on offer. • Some projects also provide bus service to station. We would also highlight the fact that bus service is one

of the most preferred amenities amongst the prospective home buyers.• The average property rate for residential projects are in the range of Rs. 2100–2900 per sqft. • The average rate for projects in Kalyan-Dombivali belt is around Rs. 2400 per sq ft. and for projects in

Badlapur-Ambernath belt is around Rs. 1700 per sq ft.• We have observed that the property prices of projects located in Mumbai beyond Thane have increased in

the range of 5-6% as compared to previous quarter, possibly a pointer to improving sentiments in the market.

• The area presents various affordable options to home buyers. Most of the buyers belong to the Lower Income Group (household income upto Rs. 25,000/- p.m.) and the Middle Income Group (household income Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 50,000 p.m.).

• Given the base capital value of each type of apartment i.e. 1 BHK (12.75 lacs), 2 BHK (19.08 lacs) and 3 BHK (24.82 lacs), the average monthly income levels required to purchase the property, assuming that the home buyer opts for a home loan equal to 80% of the Property value for a term of 20 years, would be as below –

• 1 BHK @ 12.75 lacs onwards >= 24500• 2 BHK @ 19.08 lacs onwards >= 37000• 3 BHK @ 24.82 lacs onwards >= 48000

• Most of the developers are expecting majority of the transactions to happen during the festive season (Dussera to Diwali).

• Construction quality is largely average.• It is also observed that there is a deficiency of quality Shopping Malls and multiplexes in the area and

hence, of spaces like Lifestyles, In Orbit, Korum mall etc.

Inference: Ambernath-Badlapur• Residential property markets in Ambernath-Badlapur witnessed steady demand over last 3-4 years with an

increase in migration of working Middleclass population.• A strong demand for 1-BHK and 2-BHK homes in the range of 400 sft to 900 sft.• Also, a healthy supply of 3-BHK homes and Row houses is noticed.• Amenities such as swimming pool, club house, children’s play area & gymnasium etc. are on offer. • We would also highlight the fact that bus service to station would be one of the best selling points and a

preferred amenity amongst the prospective home buyers.• The average property rate for residential projects are in the range of Rs. 1200–2100 per sqft. • The average rate for projects in Badlapur-Ambernath belt is around Rs. 1800 per sq ft.• We have observed that the residential property prices in the Ambernath-Badlapur belt have increased

by 20-25% over the previous year.• The area presents various affordable options to home buyers. Most of the buyers belong to the Lower

Income Group (household income upto Rs. 25,000/- p.m.) and the Middle Income Group (household income Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 50,000 p.m.).

• Given the base capital value of each type of apartment i.e. 1 BHK (11.77 lacs), 2 BHK (15.93 lacs), the average monthly income levels required to purchase the property, assuming that the home buyer opts for a home loan equal to 80% of the Property value for a term of 20 years, would be as below –

• 1 BHK @ 11.77 lacs onwards >= 22,716• 2 BHK @ 15.93 lacs onwards >= 30,745

• Most of the developers are expecting major transactions to happen during the festive season.• Construction quality is largely poor to average.• The value of land parcels in the green zone or in the vicinity of green zone is comparatively cheaper than

that in the residential zone, especially the ones in vicinity of river Ulhas.

Recommendations: Kalyan-Dombivli• The residential property market in Kalyan-Dombivli is highly attractive for immediate commencement of

a large integrated township development supported with world-class amenities.• Large size land parcels are available at and around Khadakpada/ Godrej Hill area & Kalyan-Shil Phata

areas which are highly suitable for the proposed township development.• Good connectivity and fast developing infrastructure facilities support immediate development and

project take-off, keeping in mind the improving sentiments of the real estate sector.• An Integrated Township with a combination of 1, 2 & 3 BHK homes targeted towards LIG/ MIG with good

amenities and open spaces will be successful even in remote locations like Adharwadi and Nandivali and can be classified as a premium residential project in the Kalyan-Dombivli belt taking into account the amenities offered in the project.

• Such areas have good future potential owing to the current projects in Khadakpada and Kalyan-Bhiwandi Shil Phata road, respectively and ongoing projects of a simlar kind have received a very good response.

• The average property rate of projects with similar amenities is in the range of Rs. 2900 – Rs. 3100 per sqft.

• However we opine that, to arrive at a competitive rate to be at par with similar kind of residential development, this rate may be discounted on account of the reasons given below-

• Location: Considering the location of the proposed township which may be comparatively remote; the rate prevalent for such kind of development in Kalyan-Dombivli needs to be discounted.

• Stage of Construction: The construction of the project is yet to commence, thus we opine that there is a need to discount the property rate further.

• On account of all the above-mentioned factors, even after considering the amenities provided, overall the property rate for the proposed township needs to be discounted by 10-15%.

• The competitive rate thus works out to be in the range of Rs. 2610 - 2790 per sq ft.

Recommendations: Ambernath-Badlapur• The residential property market in Ambernath-Badlapur is highly attractive for development like a large

integrated township development.• Large size land parcels are available at and around Badlapur village that are highly suitable for the

proposed township development.• Good connectivity and developing infrastructure facilities supports such an investment in land parcel.• An Integrated Township with a combination of 1, 2 & 3 BHK homes, Villas, Bungalows, Row houses

targeted towards LIG/ MIG with good amenities + open spaces will be successful in remote locations like Badlapur village or even Shirgaon for example.

• It will be considered as a premium residential project in the Ambernath-Badlapur belt taking into account the amenities offered in the project and will have a good future potential + land value appreciation.

• The average property rate of projects with similar amenities is in the range of Rs. 1200 – Rs. 2100 per sqft.

• However we opine that, to arrive at a competitive rate to be at par with similar kind of residential development in the future, this rate may be discounted on account of the reasons given below-

• Location: Considering the location of the proposed township which may be comparatively remote; the rate prevalent for such kind of development in Ambernath-Badlapur needs to be discounted.

• Stage of Construction: The construction of the project is yet to commence, thus we opine that there is a need to discount the property rate further.

• On account of all the above-mentioned factors, even after considering the amenities provided, overall the property rate for the proposed township needs to be discounted by approx. 10%.

• The competitive rate thus works out to be in the range of Rs. 1080 - 1890 per sq ft approx.• It would also recommended that discounted rate is to be provided only if the development in this

region is of the same nature and competence level.
