HUDA Scheme: Residential Plots in Faridabad

huda logo1 Haryana Urban Development Authority has launched a scheme to allot freehold residential plots in Faridabad and other areas like Sonipat, Rohtak, Bahadurgarh, Ambala, Jind, Hisar and Palwal.

Though the scheme is launched for various urban areas, the center of attraction is the allotment of 1,969 plots of various sizes in Faridabad.

Salient Features of the Scheme

  • Faridabad is an integral part of the NCR region and has good connectivity and proximity to Delhi. Though the region has been sluggish as compared to other NCR regions like Gurgaon is terms of appreciation in real estate prices, it does offer ample scope as there are talks of modernization of Mathura Road and work on Badarpur flyover as well as access to Metro in near future will provide facelift to the area.
  • Crime Rate in Faridabad is far less as compared to other popular regions in terms of real estate development like Noida and Ghaziabad.
  • The Rates offered in HUDA Scheme are quite competitive and offer even a good long term investment opportunity for those who want to invest in real estate to create wealth.
  • HUDA Scheme offers facility of payment in Installments. 10% Payable at application, 15% within one month of allotment and balance in Six equal Annual Installments.
  • Interest @5.5% per annum on the amount of earnest money for period beyond six months of closing date of scheme if the draw is not held and earnest money not refunded within this period.
  • Allotment will be made through draw of lots.
  • Any Individual can apply under the scheme provided he has not been allotted a plot of land directly by HUDA in the concerned Area. If you want to apply under reserved category, you must be a domicile of Haryana.

Concerns on the Scheme

  • You earnest money could be stuck with HUDA for as long as Six months without interest and thereafter @ 5.5% p.a. interest.
  • Development on Delhi-Mathura Highway and completion of Badarpur Flyover/ Access to metro is the key to next phase of price appreciation in the region and any delay on this front can take the sheen away for the investors.
  • Faridabad is grappling with pollution like other NCR regions. All the areas of the Faridabad including residential areas, industrial areas and silence zone are in the grip of air pollution. A part of it can be blamed to its initial planning as an Industrial township. Even the quality of water is a area of concern as a recent study has found water levels to be highly polluted and unfit for drinking.

Yamuna Expressway : Residential Plots Scheme 2009

YEIDA Scheme Extended till 15th May,2009

(This article has been further updated on 4th October,2009 )

The notice says that the Scheme has been extended till 15th May,2009 due to demand from Public. However, things don’t look that rosy. The Scheme has not been able to muster good response from investors as expected by the Yamuna Expressway Authority (previously known as Taj Express Way).

About Yamuna Expressway Residential Plot Scheme

These residential plots will be developed along under construction Noida-to-Agra Yamuna Expressway. The proposed site / sector is about five minutes drive from the proposed Formula One Racetrack . The land on which the plots would be developed is under the process of acquisition.

Details of Plots is as under

CategorySize (Sq. Mtr)No. of PlotsGen. Cat.Farmer Cat.Registration Amount
A400010083175,00,000
B2000250206443,00,000
C100010008251752,50,000
D500200016503502,00,000
E300500041258751,00,000

The rate of the land of the residential plots under this scheme is Rs. 4,750 per sq. mtr. The tentative date of draw is 10th August,2009.

Why did the Scheme failed in getting Response ?
  • With the current downtrend in Real estate prices, investors are worried about the returns from the Scheme

  • The Rate of Rs. 4,750 per Sq. Mtr. is considered to be aggressive given that the Scheme may take at least 8-10 years to develop.

  • Investors have doubts about the progress on the proposed Noida - Agra Expressway itself and any dealy on this project would also delay development under the Scheme.

  • The Agra Noida area is more prone to petty crimes and hence reduce the attractiveness of the scheme from Safety point of view.

Update on YEIDA Residential Scheme 2009 Draw

As per the Public Notice issued by the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority, the draw for YEIDA residential Scheme 2009(1) will be held on 14th October,2009 and 17th November,2009.

  • Draw for All Types (A,B,C,D & E) of Farmer Categories of Plot and General Category A-4000 Sq. Mtr, B-2000 Sq. Mtr. and C-1000 Sq. Mtr. will be held on 14th October,2009 at Community Center, Sector Delta-II Greater Noida at 10:00 AM. This will be a Manual Draw.

Mhada Circular

Update on MHADA Flats Draw result date (4th April,2009)

I have received a number of emails requesting information on draw date. The MHADA website does not provide any details on the draw result date. However, Indian express newspaper dated 14th february carrries following news -

"The wait of those who have applied for a flat under the housing scheme of the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) may last just three more months. The housing board has announced that it will carry out a draw of lots in the last week of May.
The whole process will take about two weeks. “When MHADA had a draw for 870 flats at Malad last year, it took us about seven to eight hours. Taking that into account, it will take at least 12 days to complete the draw for the 42 projects we have this time,” said MHADA’s Mumbai Board chief officer H K Javale. He said the election code of conduct will not hinder the process as the MHADA housing scheme is an ongoing project.
MHADA has also sent a proposal to the state government, stating that the 4.3 lakh aspiring home buyers should be paid interest from June in case the draw is not carried out on time for some reason. MHADA officials said the system to be used for the draw will be tested by experts from Tata Consultancy Services and Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI) to avoid any technical snag that occurred during its last draw. Experts from VJTI and the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) will also be present. "

DDA Housing Scheme gets good response, Allotment Details

The DDA Housing Scheme 2008 has attracted about 3.5 Lac applicants for the 5010 flats put for sale. DDA had a dream run in terms of money collected on Application forms and will earn a interest of about 45 crores in the 3 month period on the Registration amount collected from the applicants. The lottery draw will be held in the Month of December.

Result of Allotment

The results of the draw shall be displayed on the Notice Board of DDA at Vikas Sadan, D-Block, INA, New Delhi-23. In addition the result shall be displayed on the website of DDA with the address http://www.dda.org.in. The result will also be published in the leading national Newspapers.

Allotment Cum Demand Letters will be dispatched through Speed Post/Courier/Registered Post

Waiting List

A separate waiting list of 200 applicants will also be declared in order of priority. The waiting list will be valid only for 9 months from the date of issue of demand letters. The registration money of the wait listed registrants shall be refunded along with unsuccessful registrants. However, before going for the draw in case the same takes place for filling up the vacancies, all such eligible wait-listed shall be asked to deposit the registration money. 15 days time shall be given to them to do so and only those names shall be included who would be depositing their registration money prior to the draw. A draw will be held only once after six months, from date of issue of demand letters, for allotment of the surrendered flats to the wait listed registrants as per the priority decided initially. Only those flats which are surrendered within six months from date of issue of demand letters would be included for allotment to waitlisted registrants. The waiting list is created just to ensure that the surrendered flats (if any) are allotted to same registrants rather than keeping them vacant and the list will be valid only for 9 months, hence it doesn’t create any right of the wait listed registrants if they fail to get a flat from the surrendered ones. If successful, the cost would be the cost of the flat on the date the demand cum-allotment letter is issued.

Interest on Registration money

In case registration money is not refunded within three months from the closure of the scheme, in case of unsuccessful applicants, simple interest @ 5% will be paid on the registration money for the period beyond three months after the closure of the scheme up to the last date of the preceding month in which refund has been made.

Can I surrender my Flats on allotment ?

The successful applicants shall have the options to surrender the flats before the issue of the possession letter. Flat will be automatically cancelled in case payments are not made within the prescribed period. No show cause notice shall be issued for the purpose. In both the cases, amount deposited is refundable without any interest. However, cancellation charges shall be recovered

How to check DDA Flats Draw Results and Application Status ?

    Banks rush to provide loan for DDA Flats Registration

    SBI Offers lowest Interest Charge for financing DDA Flats

    As the last date for submitting the application form for DDA flats is approaching near, the War has begun. Almost all Banks have jumped the bandwagon to offer loans for financing the registration amount of Rs. 1.5 Lacs for the DDA flats offered under the DDA Housing Scheme'08. State Bank of India has come to the forefront by offering the cheapest loan for application money. Interest rates offered by banks for the DDA Housing scheme varies from Bank to Bank and hence investors should be compare these before approaching the nearest branch for a loan. Currently SBI is the best option for availing the loan as it is charging Rs. 5,050 towards interest and processing charges against Rs. 6600 charged by private banks.

    One should go to the Public Sector banks to avail the loan for DDA flats as they are charging less interest rates as compared to the Private Banks. Private players like HDFC, ICICI Bank, IDBI Bank and others  are charging Rs. 6,600 as Interest charge and processing fee.  Union Bank of India is charging Rs. 5,700 while Central bank of India is charging Rs.5,680.

    Interest Rates charged by Banks on Loan for  DDA Flats Registration

    Bank

    Interest & Processing Charges
    State Bank of India

    Rs. 5,050

    Central Bank of India

    Rs. 5,680

    Union Bank of India

    HDFC Bank

    Rs. 6,600

    ICICI Bank Rs. 6,600
    IDBI Bank Rs. 6,600

     

    Important point to Note while availing Loan for DDA Flats

    While the whole idea of getting the deal financed through bank for the Registration amount may sound appealing, there is an important rider which the applicants should keep in mind. The Interest charges mentioned above are for a period of Three Months. If DDA fails to conduct the selection process within three months and delays the lottery date, the applicants would have to cough up interest charges for the further period which may range anywhere in the range of 11-14% depending on bank to bank. Applicants should keep this in kind while applying for a loan.

    DDA flats - An excellent opportunity to invest

    DDA is launching the Housing Scheme'08 on 6th August,2008. There are around 5000 flats on offer. See my post on highlights of the scheme. The question is " Should one apply for the flats under this scheme" ? Investment Guru is of the view that one should apply for the flats under the scheme. It's just like applying for an IPO in the stock markets. You are going to block Rs. 1.5 Lac of you funds and if you get allotment the gains would be significant. If you are cash starved there is another attractive option of getting the registration amount finance and wait for getting lucky in the draw.

    Why is DDA Scheme attractive ?
    The major attraction of the scheme is that the flats are being offered at a price which is around 30-40% lower than the prevailing prices in these localities. The chances of real estate prices going down in these location because of the lower prices offered by DDA is very low, since the number of flats on sale are quite low in comparison to the total real estate matrix of these locations. So an allotment in this scheme is going to generate significant gains for the investors. Real estate prices in locations like dwarka has seen consistent rise and has offered excellent gains to those who have applied in the 2006 Housing scheme. This time around too, people who get allotment are likely to fetch a premium in the range of 2-5 lacs on the DDA prices.

    I don't have money for Registration amount ?
    No problem. As soon as the scheme is launched you will see a flood of advertisements in the newspapers regarding banks and financial institutions offering loan for the Registration amount. In other words, If you don't have money for Registration or if you don't want to block your own cash reserves for this, you can avail a financing option from banks for registration amount. Banks generally come up with a scheme where they fix a Non-refundable amount for financing the Registration amount.

    In 2006, Banks came with a Fixed amount of Rs. 5000 for financing the Registration amount. This year it may be bit more in view of higher interest rates. Suppose banks fixes Rs. 7000 this time around, it would mean that in lieu of putting 1.5 lacs of your own, you would pay nothing but Rs. 7000 to a bank for financing the registration amount. If you do not get allotment then Rs. 7000 would be your loss in terms of financing the deal. If you get allotment, it would a peanut considering the gains for your allotted flat.


    I want to sell on allotment, Can I do so ?
    There is an active market for trading once you get the allotment of flats under the scheme. So, if you didn't intended to hold on to the flat, but just wanted to grab the premium for allotment of the flat, you can sell the flat in the open market.
