Hi Himangi,
I came to know from news that both housing schemes are suitable for people. People actually preferring both schemes. But major thing is both schemes have some advantages & disadvantages . The concept of housing scheme is aim to provide houses to those EWS or LIG category people. So according to me , this scheme is bringing some major changes in India Real Estate.
Yes Mr Thakur, This initiatives taken by Govt. is bringing a lot of changes in India. DDA housing scheme launched 25000 affordable housing units,for this more than 10 lac people have applied. But people are also saying a DDA unit at the rate of Rs 6,000 to 7,000 sq ft in locations like Najafgarh, Narela or Rohini can actually appear a costly , if we compare it with the Haryana government’s scheme in adjoining NCR zones.
As per my knowledge, HUDA ’s affordable houses in the neighborhood are cheaper by near 50% to 60%. HUDA ’s scheme is offering housing units at the rate of Rs 3,600-4,000 per sq ft in NCR locations like Gurgaon, Sohna Road, Sonipat, Faridabad and Palwal. Yet another factor that goes in favor of HUDA is the resale of a property.
Yes Mr Gautam , i agreed with you. In my point of view, one more disadvantages is in DDA flats, an allottee cannot sell his or her unit before five years after possession, the HUDA flats can be resold one year after the possession .
HUDA scheme has a provision to set prices of the unit on carpet area while Indian developers have a practice of selling units by charging on the surface area. Charge on the carpet area would help buyers save around 25-35% of the prices over other private or DDA units.
I think, both DDA & HUDA are best in their respective locations. If HUDA offering the houses at 60% cheap , that doesn't mean DDA should do the same. DDA appropriate authority should check & investigate to make some new attractive changes in their housing scheme. My opinion is DDA should not be dragged by this HUDA scheme. Making profit should not be motive of DDA.
Hi Himangi,
In my point of view, for people who work in the primary locations of the National Capital Region (NCR), DDA flats would be a better option but for industrial employees and other buyers residing and working in outskirt areas like Sonipat or Panipat, HUDA’s projects will be a better option. Flat maintenance is another key area where HUDA may have scored over its Delhi counterpart.
While maintenance issues routinely plague DDA’s erstwhile dwelling units, the Haryana authority has been quick on the draw to rope in private developers to deal with the prickly problem. In return, the developer would be allowed to develop 4% of the land for commercial purposes.
