Paranjape Schemes' Madhukosh, Dhayari, Sinhagad road, Pune - booking open!

Your Pursuit of Happyness ends at Madhukosh!

In today's Sakal, I saw an ad of Madhukosh, Paranjape Schemes' township of 1 BHK, 2 BHK & 3 BHK Flats at Dhayari, on Sinhagad road, Pune.

Starting with "What is happiness?", the ad told me where i could find it.

Yes, of course, at Madhukosh!

Besides this, the ad said that, Madhukosh has 575 flats. At this point of time, booking of the first phase, which has 289 flats, is open.

Sample flats at Madhukosh are ready, good news, indeed!

In this ad, for the first time, i also saw the elevation of the building!

Yes, now, i have started feeling that, "Here ends my "Pursuit of Happyness"!

Visit to Paranjape Schemes' Madhukosh at Dhayari on Sinhagad Road, Pune

Madhukosh - by public demand!

A couple of weeks ago, we all know that Paranjape Schemes was forced to open the waiting list of Madhukosh at Dhayari on Sinhagad road in Pune.

At that point of time, Paranjape Schemes was not at all prepared to launch Madhukosh. Floor plans and architectural views were not ready. Property rate was not decided. Sample flat was not ready. But without bothering about these petty details, property buyers forced Paranjape Schemes to accept Rs. 25,000 and enrolled their names for 1 BHK / 2 BHK Flats.

Eventually, last Saturday, on 30th of January 2010, Paranjape Schemes printed the floor plans, uploaded them on their website (www.pscl.in), allocated the flats to those who have registered their names and not only that increased the property rate of Madhukosh from 3,300 to Rs. 3,500 per sq.ft.!

Madhukosh - by public desire!

Other day, when i 'discovered' the site of Madhukosh, i understood why public forced Paranjape Schemes to open the waiting list.

I took a share rickshaw at Anandnagar on Sinhagad road, which was going up to Nanded Fata. After crossing the bridge on the canal, just after Dhayari Fata and Sanas School, i told rickshawala to stop and got down. I was little surprised when i didn't see a sign board of Paranjape Schemes or Madhukosh at the expected corner, on the opposite side of the road.

However, when i crossed the road and stood in front of Sinhgad Darshan Building, for the first time in my life, i saw an entrance gate at the expected corner, on my right hand side. I went ahead and asked the security guard whether any "saheb" was at the site. He told me a name of the site engineer and opened the gate.

I didn't ask, "Is this Paranjape Schemes' site?". Because there was no need to ask! The location of the site had already answered my question. Madhukosh is fulfilling the strongest desire of all property buyers on Sinhagad road, a small township on the main Sinhgad road - within PMC limits!

Not far inside from the main road, not in a fringe village like Ambegaon or Narhe, not on Mumbai Bangalore Expressway but on the main Sinhagad road!

This is happening after a long gap. Nearly 2 years after the launch of Darode Jog Properties' Crossover-County. At the same property rate. Rs. 3,300 per sq.ft. for the waiting list and Rs. 3,500 from 1st February 2010. Offering the same amenities - swimming pool and club house. Fulfilling the aspirations of life-style.

Security opened the gate and I started walking towards the site office and sample flat. Walking on the paved road, i started admiring Shashank Paranjape's, Paranjape Schemes' Director, extraordinary talent to understand deep desire of Pune property buyer. His ability & skill to develop a project which will satisfy buyer's hunger for a better life. His shrewd but gentle way to convert property buyer's wish into the booking. Recently, Shashank Paranjape has demonstrated his excellence while he launched Blue Ridge Hinjewadi, Forest Trails Bungalows at Bhugaon and now Madhukosh on Sinhagad road.

Madhukosh - by public choice!

Instead of going inside the site office, i sat on the chair laying on the lawn, looking around and getting a feel of the situation. It was very well evident that Paranjape Schemes was working on this site for a long period of time. Some time in 2009, first they started talking about launching this project, as a budget housing of 1 BHK Flats at the property rate of Rs.2,300 per sq.ft.

Sure, even at this point of time, Paranjape Schemes will need some more time to officially launch Madhukosh. On a Sunday afternoon, from where i was sitting - i could see that, carpenters were comfortably cutting ply in the waiting lounge of the site office and some furniture was dumped in the salespersons cabins. On my right side, beyond sort of a compound, there was a actual site where some activity was going on.

First, should I visit the cottage like site office or visit the actual construction site, i was wondering. When i couldn't make up my mind, i got up, to walk back to the main gate, to chat with the security guard. Looking around, i felt that, by any parameter, this site was not ideal for a budget housing of 2,300 rupees per sq.ft. in 2009 or not even suitable for the 2 BHK Flats in the budget range of Rs. 31 lakhs to 35 lakhs in 2010.

The site of Madhukosh was looking very prime piece of land on which, i strongly felt, only premium housing of high budget specious flats should have been developed. To me, site of Madhukosh looked like sites of Paranjape Schemes' Woodland, near Mahatma Society and Shilpa, near MIT collage, in Kothrud and La Cresta in Sopan Baug, near Empress Garden.

I know, you may think that i am pro-wealthy, but in any industry, you will agree with me that, we always use a right kind of a raw material to produce a product of a certain quality. In a business of real estate development, land is a raw material, very precious raw material, day by day which is becoming very rare, because it is not produced anymore!

Paranjape Schemes should have used this rare raw material not for fulfilling property buyers today's desire. Why Paranjape Schemes didn't go for at least medium budget flats like next door Darode Jog Properties' Crossover-County?

Or, like Darode Jog Properties, who themselves are launching, next to Madhukosh, budget flats in their upcoming Serene-County, did property buyers' current desire over-powered and over-whelmed Paranjape Schemes too?

Released from a sort of hostage like situation in 2008-09 (because property buyers simply stopped booking), at a cost of wasting (or not utilizing for a proper product) precious and rare land, are these reputed Pune builders playing for the gallery? Are these builders developing "budget housing" because of the "Stockholm Syndrome"?

Whatever may be the reason but, for sure, property buyers are getting an opportunity to stay in an area where, in the budget of 31-35 lakhs, it wouldn't have been possible before!

Oh! In this budget, 31-35 lakhs for a 2 BHK Flat, to buy a property in this area on Sinhagad road, probably, this would be the last opportunity. I am sure, those property buyers who compelled Paranjape Schemes to open the waiting list, knew this well! That's why those property buyers who took first initiative, didn't mind much about the property rate of Madhukosh and booked fast and more number of 2 BHK Flats than a 1 BHK!

After PBAP property exhibition in the last month, when salespersons were telling Shashank Paranjape about the huge and unconditional response to Madhukosh, I am sure, Shashank must have realized that this response is not because of the brand power of Paranjape Schemes! But, because Pune property buyers were banking and betting on some important point, which he hasn't considered much! While chatting with the security guard at the main entrance, i found out what was that important point!

The security guard at the main gate of Madhukosh, as any employee of Paranjape Schemes, was quite knowledgeable! He explained me how the new road will be. This road will be parallel to Sinhagad road and go up to Nanded City Pune. Road or no road, i said to myself, starting from this bridge on the canal to Khadakwasala Dam, in the next 10 years we will see one of the best development ever happened in Pune real estate market!

Paranjape Schemes' Madhukosh, Darode Jog's Crossover-County and Serene-County, few upcoming small projects and 700 acre Nanded City Pune will make this around 1,000 acre patch an interesting destination.

Cool residential neighborhoods, not only because of the cool south west breeze but, because of (Thanks to Nanded City Pune!) the upcoming IT/ITES workplaces, entertainment facilities, outdoor life on the banks of Mutha river and on Sinhagad & other forts near by, shopping malls and education institutes, good connectivity to Mumbai - Bangalore highway and may be mono-rail terminus!

When i realized these future prospects of investing in this part of Pune, i understood why Madhukosh was public's choice!

About Blue Ridge Boat Club, Hinjewadi Pune

First ever private boat club created by any developer in Pune:

"Blue Ridge Boat Club marks the fulfillment of yet another promise made by us to our clients who have booked flats at Blue Ridge Hinjewadi.

We had promised them amenities which are unparalleled and unmatched so far, and we have made sure that they were not empty promises.

And we are proud to say that we have been able to make this happen only because of the unstinting faith and support extended to us by our 1000 plus customers, because of whom we have been able to sail past smoothly during the time of recession," Shashank Paranjape, MD, Paranajpe Schemes (Construction) Ltd.

Welcome to Paranjape Schemes' Blue Ridge Hinjewadi:
140 acre township that blends residential housing with an IT/ITES Special Economic Zone (SEZ):

Blue Ridge and it's 1.5 km stretch of Marina:

"We are very conscious of not only preserving the beautiful environment, but also tremendously enhancing it, so we have made sure that there are no motorized boats at our boat club, since they are polluting.

Also, rowing, sculling and kayaking provides good exercise in natural surroundings.

We also are going to give a radical makeover to the 1.5 km banks of the water stretch at Marina with amazing landscaping.

That’s not all – we are planning to plant atleast 10,000 trees in the entire Blue Ridge project, which will have a positive carbon footprint, because when we took over this land, there were hardly any trees,” Shashank Paranjape.

A zero discharge of water into the river:

Blue Ridge, 90 lakh sqft constructed space, will have a zero discharge of water into the river flowing by, because there is a high-tech sewage treatment plant, which will treat the water, and the treated water will be used for cooling, gardening and flushing purposes.

Blue Ridge Boat Club: First ever private kayaking facility in Pune and More:

The membership of Boat Club is free for the residents of Blue Ridge Hinjewadi. Now, they are free to enjoy their favourite water sports – boating, kayaking, sculling and punting, over the 1.5 km stretch of Marina, amidst the serene and scenic surroundings of the water belt.

And as one enjoys the boat ride, they will be greeted with a breathtaking view of the river banks, beautified with spectacular landscapes, using local shrubs, flora and fauna, making it truly a place of tranquility and relaxation.

The Blue Ridge Boat Club will, certainly, have lifeguards and all safety aspects will be taken care of.

What’s more – those who do not want to get into a boat in the water, can walk along the marina, where coming up soon are a fruit orchard, a butterfly garden and even a pet zoo!

That’s not all – also on the cards are the barbeque corner and the fishing point, making the marina complete.

Thanks to Usha Karnani, Director, Inspirations!

About launch of Nandan Inspera, 2 BHK Flats at Wakad Pune

Three hundred 2 BHK Flats booked in pre-launch offer!

This weekend, I went to Nandan Prospera, opp. Sadanad Hotel on Baner Road to interview Mr. Shamkant Kotkar, Chairman and M D of Nandan Buildcon Pvt. Ltd. I was curious to know about the up-coming launch of Nandan Inspera, 2 BHK Flats at Wakad Pune on this 26TH January 2010. I was very much sure that it would be a huge happening more than any recently launched project in Pune real estate market.

Yes, of course, one reason was it's Nandan's project and my friends Rugwed and Rutuparna Deshpande of Setu Advertising were in charge of advertising.

Plus, equally important reason was the location of the project. Wakad Pune! The launch of Nandan Inspera, i was very much sure, will bring back the glory of Wakad. Which lost it's shine after lackluster launch of Park Titanium in Park Street Wakad and Kolte Patil's 24K Glitterati in Pimple Nilakh. Completely thrown into oblivion by Celestial City Ravet and Woodsvile in Pradhikarn!

Launch of Nandan Inspera will be a proof, i was sure, that builders in Pune offer all property buyers an equal opportunity to boost the real estate market and boast about it!

At Wakad, Nandan Buildcon is offering an opportunity to IT professionals who are all the time suspended in the transit mode and at present working in Hinjewadi. Whereas, at Dhayari on Sinhagad Road, Paranjape Schemes, Darode Jog Properties and Mittal Group are grounding 'permanently settled down in Pune' type property buyers. All are getting an equal opportunity to boost property prices from Rs. 3,500 per sq.ft. to Rs. 4,000 per sq.ft. Which was not even in the last real estate boom in Pune!

Carrying great expectation about the launch of Nandan Inspera in my mind, i went to interview the builder, Mr. Shamkant Kotkar. Interviewing the builder, particularly on the eve of project launch, i haven't done before. Yes, since i have started this blog, i don't meet builders on my own. Not every builder, even if he called me! Only because, over the years, i have heard them enough. Now, except few builders in Pune, i enjoy hearing you. Any property buyer in Pune real estate market!

My nervousness reduced when the receptionist at Nandan Inspera asked, "Have you visited the site before?"and started searching my name in her computer. "I am not a property buyer! I am a friend of Mr. Kotkar," i said. Yes, this was good, i was visiting this builder because of my long acquaintance, i told myself and sat on the couch.

No! As a blogger i should not feel shy to meet a builder who most of the time is at the site office, i said. Actually, i should feel proud to meet the builder who invites the property buyers to design the flat of their choice, i told myself! Completely convinced about my decision to meet the builder, i started talking to myself, "Mr. Shamkant Kotkar, on the eve of launch of Nandan Inspera, I, Ravi Karandeekar, feel proud about you. After the grand launch of Nandan Inspera, i am, sure whole Pune real estate market will be proud of you..for boosting the market and increasing the property..." till the receptionist told me that i can go in!

"Kotkar Saheb, i have come to interview you on the occasion of launch of Nandan Inspera at Wakad. Can you, please, spare a few minutes for me?," i said, pulling the chair.

"You wasted your time. You should have called me. Now, have a cup of coffee and if you haven't come on the cycle, i will drop you," Mr. Shamkant Kotkar uttered the words with a great difficulty.

"Oh! Sore throat!! Sorry to bother you. Please, don't trouble yourself. I will call you tomorrow to talk about the launch," i said.

"Don't call me. on 26TH we are not launching but starting the works...pre-construction..because those 300 property buyers who have booked and designed their flats are going to construct it too..." Mr. Kotkar said.

"What does it mean? Design your flat...construct it...and live in it.....! Sounds interesting!!," i said, without understanding what it really meant!

"Come over some time in the coming week and i will tell you," Mr. Kotkar said. "Anytime for you, sir!," i said and took his leave.

"Now, what should i post?," i asked myself. To confirm, i called Setu Advertising and asked, "Is it true that there is no big launch of Nandan Inspera on 26TH, as declared?"

Rugwed said, "Yes. No big launch. You know 300 flats are already booked. He is not pulling your legs!"

"That's fine! But what about other builders? Who will boost the market in Aundh annex?," i said without expecting any answer from him.

Oh! My god!! I didn't ask about the current property prices of Nandan Prospera and Nandan Inspera. At least, i could have written about it, i realized and called Nandan Buildcon's office. Here is what i have learned:

Nandan Propspera: - Property rates
1) up to 7TH Floor - Rs. 4,500 per sq.ft.
2) From 8TH to 11TH Floor - Rs. 4,800 per sq.ft.
3) For 12TH Floor - Rs. 5,300 per sq.ft.
4) Only few 3 BHK Flats, costing around 90 lakhs, are available.

Nandan Inspera Wakad - Property rates:
1) Rs. 3,300 per sq.ft.
2) Only 2 BHK Flats - Saleable area - 973 sq.ft. & 1100 sq.ft.
3) Living room - 12' x 16'
4) Bedroom - 12'x 14'
5) Specifications of Nandan Inspera - as per Nandan Prospera
6) Price of 2 BHK Flat - Rs. 40 laks - Rs. 43 lakhs

In short, property buyers have done a good job! They have not only designed the smaller version of Nandan Prospera for themselves at Wakad but property buyers have made Mr. Shamkant Kotkar's job easy! Yes, ultimate truth is: Only property buyers can increase the property prices, boost the sales and revive Pune real estate market! Are you listening Aditi?

Paranjape Schemes' Madhukosh at Dhayari Phata on Sinhagad Road - Hurry! Waiting list due to be closed soon!!

Upcoming residential projects in Pune real estate market:

Do you know that Paranjape Schemes still have a system of waiting list? Yes, I am talking about that old system of paying Rs. 25,000 to M/s Paranjape Schemes' (Construction) Limited and enrolling your name for their upcoming project!

News is, after enrolling more than 200 names, Paranjape Schemes' has decided to close the waiting list of Madhukosh. Their upcoming project on the banks of Khadakwasala canal, near Dhayari Phata on Sinhagad Road.

It means, if you are not on Paranjape Schemes' waiting list you wont get an opportunity to pay a lesser property rate than the launch rate and a special privilege to book the flat of your choice.

View Ambegaon - Narhe - Dhayari - Sinhagad Road in a larger map

If you are on the waiting list, for your 1 BHK / 2 BHK / 3 BHK Flat at Madhukosh, property rate would only be Rs. 3,000 per sq.ft. Substantially, less than the launch rate of Madhukosh.

Missing an opportunity of enrolling your name on the waiting list of Paranjape Schemes' Madhukosh would be a serious mistake of your life. Because, Paranjape Schemes' Madhukosh is the only budget housing project on Sinhagad Road.

So, don't take a chance. Remember what happened on 10TH January 2010, at Mittal Group's Sun Universe, a mega township of luxurious 1 BHK, 2 BHK, 3 BHK Flats and Twin Bungalows, off Sinhagad Road, next to Navale Lawns. At the property rate of Rs. 3,001 per sq.ft., booking of the first phase opened and closed on the same day. Now, you have to wait till 15TH of February and book your flat at Rs. 3,301 per sq.ft.! If this can happen at Mittal, just imagine what will happen at Paranjape Schemes' Madhukosh!

So, point is, hurry, enroll yourself on the waiting list of Paranjape Schemes' Madhukosh. Otherwise, you will be forced to book at the neighboring project. Darode Jog Properties' upcoming township of 2 BHK Flats, Serene-County. Where property rate is Rs. 2,800 per sq.ft.

If you don't act now, who knows, you may not be able to fulfill your dream of owning a home in Pune. Because, right after Paranjape Schemes' Madhukosh and Darode Jog's Serene-County Pune ends and Nanded City Pune begins!

Hurry!
