But as per the CIDCO officials, hike is an annual standard procedure. Since, 1985, the town-planning agency has been fixing the reserve price of land through revision of reserve prices in each node every year.
Hi Pradyuman, In 2014-15, reserve rates in Airoli, Ghansoli, Koparkhairne, Vashi, Sanpada, Nerul, Belapur Kharghar, New Panvel, Kalamboli, Kamothe, Dronagiri and Ulwe were Rs. 6810/5910/7940/11600/9680/9960/6980//6980/5910/4500/4500/5070/4500 per square meter respectively whereas in 2015-16, these rates are Rs. 7500/6500/8735/12730/10650/10930/7680/7680/7100/5400/5400/5580/4950 respectively.
Hi Ananya, Reserve price calculates the average land development cost, but it does not include any profit gains. The agency's board has approved this hike between 20-25% in reserve prices of plots in Navi Mumbai.
Good question Ananya, The base price is calculated after adding several factors, including the reserve price and the FSI of a particular plot. This means that there would be a 2.5% hike in the base prices of residential plots. And if this continues, the concept of affordable houses in Navi Mumbai will never become a reality.
Right Supratim, Realty rates across the satellite city are set to go up by close to 2.5% as the town planning body CIDCO conducts its annual hike of reserve prices of land across 15 nodes in Navi Mumbai.
