I recently visit my flat (Ignis E). Wings D, E & F are complete. Wing A & B look 6 months away. Wing C looks one year away. Lodha expects handover of keys from Jan ’13 – they are waiting for temporary water connection (a mystery as they say OC is in process and going to take six months) Good News – Flat construction quality seems good. Passage road was under construction. Noise issue due to ongoing construction activity was not that bad due to acoustics of large open area. Disappointing News: Cluster clubhouse area is quite small for 450 odd flats. Swimming pool is a bad joke – it’s basically a 10x10 feet pit. Btw, I don’t care for the clubhouse .. this has been a painful journey – just waiting to get rightful possession..

My comments to replies
The customer service people are not giving a straight answer regarding the possession date and also regarding the status and progress of the project. Does anyone have a clearer picture?

Q:
For Casa Univis (or is it now Splendora?) Egnis E, I once again got a call urging me to take Fitout possession. They are not offering any information on OC and consequently the final possession except to say that they have applied for it. But they are trying to get more money out of me by offering fitout possession.
Also, on CAM they are saying that it will start from Jan 15, 2013. When I don't have possession of the flat how can they expect me to pay for maintaining it? Also, they have not addressed the issue of doubling the maintenance charges from what was agreed upon.
Also, when I asked them if the clubhouse, pool and other infrastructure is ready, they haven't answered in the affirmative. These, by the way, are what this maintenance charge is supposed to be going towards. So, basically Lodha expects the buyer to pay for maintaining infrastructure that isn't ready yet and that the buyer doesn't legally have a right to use.
Virkram, Rajesh is right - all the hill top clubhouse, cluster club house was marketing gimmick - they are the marketing genius - you have to give it to them. As far as the plans, brochures - there is one beautiful "*" that says terms and conditions apply. These terms and conditions state they can change the other plans without notice .. bla .. bla.. so technically, its difficult to prove them on wrong in a legal suit. In certain cases you clearly can - like delay , but one has to be prepared to take on the fight and put sustained efforts.

Expect anything between 14K to 17K, less than 10K is not the correct estimateExpect anything between 14K to 17K, less than 10K is not the correct estimate
