There are pros and cons to living here. Let’s start with the negative (just one) so we can end on a positive note :)
Negative:
- Too many rules - Every society has them, but here it’s almost mafia like for example UrbanClap is banned from providing services, apparently there was some incident with one flat of some dispute and now noone can get services from that company.
Another example is when I moved in only "internal people" were allowed to help me carry my furniture upto the flat to avoid spread of Covid19. The movers and packers would charge the full amount but internal people only keep the furniture in the flat, I had to do the unpacking myself. Later on I found out that these "internal people" were actually living outside the society. So that seemed to defeat the purpose and I had to shell out additional money.
There is very little you can do to reason out or use logic and some people can get things done with special permission so that’s really unfair and unfortunate if you don’t know someone in the management committee or are not a high ranking defence officer
Also if you are buying a flat here it requires permission from SV Delhi so it’s a month long process at least, same when selling, the new buyer has to take a permission that process would affect an already difficult transaction of buying or selling real estate
Positive:
Shopping complex - there is an internal shopping complex so most of your needs can be met, there are some good shops close by too so no issues there
Location - Close to main road so get public transport is not that hard
Great view - From most of the houses you get a good view, except maybe Block H, which also has a serious stench issue (don’t know why a septic tank cannot be repaired for 1 year now)
Amenities like water and electricity, maintenance etc have no problems
