Editor’s Note

Telangana, a long cherished dream comes true

T

The creation of Telangana has raised new opportunities for realtors as well as investors. With Hyderabad as its common capital, the hopes for futuristic development are all high. Properties in Hyderabad currently are highly undervalued when compared to other tier-1 cities like Chennai and Delhi NCR. The realty rates have shown a modest growth of only 12-13% since 2009. Over all these years, the real estate market of Hyderabad had stagnated, thus leaving the prices fluctuating even along the lower side of the graph. But the division of AP has started building up hopes of investors and developers once again.

The rates of properties in Hyderabad, hitherto, refrained from going up because of other factors too. The frequent revision of the repository rates by the RBI resulting in higher home loan interests and the crumbled rupee value against dollar played a dampening effect on buyers' sentiments. Inflation was an all-time high, diluting buyers' sentiments even more. Amelioration of the predicament is expected to put the developers back in action. The city is a vibrant one and shall continue to grow, thanks to its stronghold over IT, ITES, pharma, health services, education, tourism, medium and small scale industries backed by high class infrastructural facilities, connectivity and climate. The posh areas of Chennai, like Poes Garden is trading at Rs 28,00030,000 per sq ft where as similar areas in Hyderabad like Banjara Hills and Jubilee Hills are trading at Rs 7000-9000 sq ft i.e about 30%. The out skirts of Chennai like the end of Old Mahabalipuram Road (OMR) the rates are Rs 5500 whereas in HITEC City and Kondapur which is hardly 8-9 kilometers from the CBD the prevailing prices are anywhere between Rs 4000-5000. So, there is a lot of potential for the prices to go up. Post state and general elections the Hyderabad prices are expected to firm up in a span of next six months. In the south west of the city, the area from Narsingi up to the airport on account of better connectivity due to ORR, service roads and radial roads has seen lot of development upto Narsingi junction. Now several villa and apartment projects are coming up in the vicinity of Narsingi junction. Apart from traditional ribbon development along the national and state highway roads, concentrated developments are coming up in Nallagandla, Tellapur and Kollur ORR junctions as well as Adibatla, Sagar road ORR junction. In this issue of Horizons the ‘Cover story’ is dedicated to the impact on industry and real estate, post bifurcation of AP on the successor states of Telangana and AP, the ‘Special Report’ dwells on the ‘etown planning’ of GHMC and ‘Green Channel’ initiative of HMDA, then we have an interesting piece on home automation under our section on ‘Interiors’, tips on landscaping for the garden lovers besides our other regular features and a dose of realty news under the section on ‘News Watch’.

National Ratings for green field housing

G

reenfield housing projects will soon come under a new rating system being developed jointly by mortgage regulator National Housing Bank and Indian Banks’ Association. The rating is aimed at encouraging lenders to give loans at concessional rates to individuals buying units in projects rated highly by NHB-IBA. This will prompt builders to get their projects rated. As an incentive for builders and lenders, the regulators, including the RBI and NHB, may consider regulatory forbearance or concessions to rated projects through lower risk weightage and lower provisioning as compared to unrated projects. The move comes as part of efforts to stimulate demand in a slowing economy, where

growth rate has fallen below 5% in the last two years from 8.9% in 2010-11. A report on a housing project-specific rating system was recently submitted to the finance ministry by a panel of experts from NHB, IBA, the housing industry and rating agencies. While the Rs 52,000-crore mortgage industry is growing at a brisk 18-19%, the new system will lower costs for builders and buyers, prevent inventory pile-up and speed up new projects. The new rating system will be different from the existing ICRA and CRISIL ratings, which have a builder-specific rating

system and are not project-specific. While the new rating system will cover greenfield projects initially, NHB and IBA may consider ongoing projects. The rating will not be mandatory, but will be incentive-based and demand-driven.

Green tribunal stays tree-cutting in eco-zone

T

he National Green Tribunal (NGT) has stayed the further cutting of trees and called for a halt on illegal mining on a 32-acre plot of land in the ecosensitive Western Ghats that was stripped

of over 7,000 trees for a toll booth. If constructed, the toll booth will involve flattening of two hills on either side of a stretch of road along the Mumbai-Goa highway. The Pune bench of the NGT passed an order recently directing the Maharashtra government and a number of government authorities, including the regional transport office and forest officer, to maintain status quo. The order prevented them from undertaking “any activity by themselves or through any agency for the

However, the tree authority of the Sawantwadi forest department issued a circular in December stating that no part of Sindhudurg was ecologically sensitive. But now the same tree authority has complained against the state’s check post authority, which was given permission to cut 1,279 trees but had ended up cutting an additional 5,429 trees.

People living on rent in urban areas

A

s per Census 2011 data, the number of people living on rent in urban areas in the country is approximately 21.72 million. This was stated by Girija Vyas, union housing minister. The minister further stated that no decision has been taken on the recommendations of the task force on rental housing. 'Land' and 'Çolonisation' being state subjects, it is for the states to take necessary steps to address the concerns of the tenants as well as house owners in their tenancy laws. However, the National Urban Housing and Habitat Policy, 2007 (NUHHP) envisages that rent of a housing unit should be fixed by mutual agreement between the landlord and the tenant for a stipulated lease period until which the tenant will not be allowed to be evicted and after the expiry of the said lease period, the tenant will not be permitted to continue in the said housing unit, the minister added.

National FDI to buy farm land in India

T

he urban development ministry is pushing for retrospective application of a significant change proposed in the foreign direct investment (FDI) policy for construction sector, which will allow foreign investors to purchase farm land in India. The Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP) has proposed to relax the FDI rules for construction and housing. It has recommended a company owned and controlled by an Indian and having foreign investment could directly buy agricultural land from farmers. However, a company controlled by a non-resident will be able to buy such

land only after it is converted to nonagricultural land. The ministry wants this provision to be available retrospectively. The DIPP is in the process of floating a note for the consideration of the cabinet. DIPP feels changes under the Foreign Exchanges Management Act (FEMA) can only be done on a prospective basis. A retrospective application will benefit real estate major Emaar MGF, which was issued a show cause notice last year by the Enforcement Directorate for alleged diversion of FDI funds to buy agricultural land. Between April 2000 and October 2013, construction development,

including townships, housing and builtup infrastructure in the country, received FDI worth $22.77 billion, or 11% of the total FDI attracted by India.

Q3 housing demand remains weak

H

ousing demand remained weak in the second half of 2013 on a slower economic growth, coupled with high property prices and steep interest rates, says latest bi-annual report of CBRE, a global realty consultant. High vacancy levels and rising construction costs led to a slowdown in construction activity, leading to a fall in new launches, and a further delay in project completion timeline, says the report. Liquidity issues and an increasing inventory caused developers to shift their focus from new launches to the completion of existing projects. While the premium housing segment saw a steady interest from high net worth individuals and NRIs, end-user demand in the high-end and mid-end segments remained low. The depreciating rupee, which tumbled to a series of record lows in 2013, resulted in an increase in NRI inquiry for property in India. Developers reduced prices across select projects and offered discounts or marketing promotions to attract buyers in micro-markets with high inventory levels.

National Retail lending outpaces corporate credit

R

etail lending at major private and public sector banks is growing faster than corporate advances, as lenders worry about the impact of a slowing economy on business houses, show data until December, 2013. Banks are increasingly relying on retail loans to drive credit growth as they feel their chances of turning into non-performing assets (NPA) are much lower. Retail loans are also an avenue for portfolio diversification, thanks to their smaller size and distributed customer base. According to RBI data, gross outstanding credit to the retail sector as on December 27, 2013 stood at Rs 9.99 lakh crore, up 15.8% y-o-y. In the same period leading

Private equity funds returning to realty space

O

ptimistic about the revival of economy after Lok Sabha elections, foreign and domestic private equity players are now returning to Indian real estate sector, but with caution and will focus on top six-seven cities, say industry experts. Last year witnessed as many as 393 PE deals totalling USD 9.67 billion, out of which USD 40 million were in the real estate sector. "We believe the current sentiment cannot become worse than (in the) last few years. The real estate sector is expected to witness a revival this year. This positive sentiment is encouraging private equity

players to re-look at the sector for investment," said PwC executive director Shashank Jain. Both the domestic as well as international players are looking at investing in the sector, he added. "Improvement in policy framework, banking sector reforms, and increase in construction activities are encouraging investors to look at real estate. There have been investments in real estate asset class, which are giving double digit returns of around 20-22 per cent," Milestone Capital director Rubi Arya said.

A cheaper credit line for women

ndia’s first bank dedicated to women has been in operation since November 2013. Bharatiya Mahila Bank is offering lower interest rates on loan products. From car loans to home loans and education loans, women borrowers get to pay lower interest on their loans at the women’s bank. While the bank employs men and also allows men to open an account, preference is given

to woman borrowers and businesses targeted at women. The bank started out by offering a loan of up to Rs. 5 lakh for kitchen renovation at the (current) rate of 12.25 per cent. It later expanded its loan product basket to include standard offerings, such as auto, home and education loans. Now the bank normally gives car loans at a 10.75 per cent interest rate. If either the borrower

or one of the co-borrowers is a woman, the rate drops to 10.5 per cent. This is much cheaper than the 10.95 per cent interest rate on car loans offered by SBI to most borrowers. Similarly, in home loans too, women get a helping hand. The bank normally charges the base rate (currently 10 per cent) of interest on home loans if the loan amount is less than Rs. 30-lakh.

BDA doubles flat rates

A

fter sites, it's now the turn of flats. Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) has arbitrarily jacked up the prices of flats by almost 100%-200%, spiking the common man's last hope of owning a dream home in the city. While BDA plans to sell 2BHK flats of its future projects at not less than Rs 25 lakh, it also served notice to over 3,000 home buyers who've won flats in a recent lottery, to pay an additional Rs 10 lakh to Rs 15 lakh, depending on the type of house. The decision to hike prices was

taken at a recent BDA board meeting, taking into consideration the prices of land and increased construction costs according to BDA. Allottees, who've won 2BHK flats, have started getting notices from the BDA, informing them to pay an additional Rs 10 lakh over the original price of Rs 7.5 lakh, fixed at the

time when BDA had invited applications in 2012. Allottees of 3BHK homes will soon get notices to pay up Rs 15 lakh more. The abrupt increase in BDA flat prices has sent allottees scurrying to arrange for finances, while some have simply given up. Interestingly, some private builders are offering 2BHK flats of better quality and with more amenities, for prices slightly higher than those fixed by the BDA.

Make the most of online property auctions

W

ith the economy tottering, bad loans are piling up at many banks. This is forcing banks to put on

the block assets pledged by defaulting borrowers. Therefore, in adversity lies an opportunity, even if it’s for someone else. Properties auctioned by banks are generally available cheaper than the going market rate — prices could be 1020% lower. Unlike the cumbersome physical auctions of the past in which bidders had to assemble at a predecided venue, banks these days mostly conduct online e-auctions. With

online auctions, it is now far simpler for individuals to scout for cheaper properties across the country. Online auctions are also more transparent. If you win the auction, you have to pay 25% of the purchase amount to the bank by the prescribed period, usually within the same day. The earnest money deposited earlier will be adjusted in this payment. The balance 75% of the bid amount has to be paid within a prescribed time too — usually within 15 days from the date of the auction. Failure to comply with this will result in you forfeiting the 25 % already paid.

For some reason, the project didn’t take off. Given the potential of the industry and presence of animation, gaming and entertainment firms here, it’s the most suitable project for Hyderabad,” said L. Maruti Shankar, founder and MD of the city based gaming firm 7Seas Entertainment Limited. Conceptualised earlier as Digital Entertainment city (DEC) in 2008 it has been rechristened

as GAME city. Touted to be the first of its kind in the country, the DEC was expected to rope in several animation, gaming, film production, music studios, TV studios, training academies, a regulation support office and an entertainment complex at a single location. The project was intended to be

developed in a public-privatepartnership involving FXLabs, Suresh Productions, Gemini TV and DQ Entertainment etc. But for some reason, the location of the project was shifted. The government, on its part, is all set to execute the project on a fast track mode. About Rs 400 crore has been allocated for the project and a developer will be identified to construct the GAME city tower according to APIIC MD Jayesh Ranjan. However, the industry is still waiting for details such as the likely names of the firms selected for playing major role, cost of land to be allocated, likely sops and status of SEZ etc.

Clearing clouds of uncertainty, Telangana the 29th state of India is finally seeing the light of the day.

Cover Story Andhra Pradesh finally heaved a sigh of relief following the release of the gazette notification dated 1st March, 2014, declaring the bifurcation of the state of Andhra Pradesh into the successor states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Telangana the 29th state of India will come into existence on 2 June, 2014. Hyderabad city will be the common capital of the successor states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh for a period of 10 years. Until its exclusive integration with Telangana, law and order duties in GHMC area will remain under the common governor. High Court at Hyderabad will be common for both the states till a separate HC is set up. Existing admission quotas in all government and private institutions of higher, technical and medical education shall continue for ten years. Clearing the clouds of 'uncertainty' over businesses, the industry at large and developers and realtors too, rejoiced the end of political uncertainty in the state, especially Hyderabad, which they stressed, was at the root of the crisis prevailing in the property market over the last few years. Bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh is expected to see increased economic and business activities in both the states but there is a need for early resolution on sharing of resources and clarity on the new capital, say industry and bank officials.

Industry Reactions on bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh Ashok Reddy, Chairman, CII Andhra Pradesh reacted cautiously in view of the several unanswered questions relating to the distribution of resources like water and power as well as state government policies and tax benefits. "After 10 years, the question of which city will be the capital of Andhra Pradesh may again become the bone of contention between the people of Rayalaseema and Andhra, impacting the growth prospects of the new state in case that decision is not taken quickly," Reddy cautioned. FAPCCI said the end of the political impasse would improve the industrial climate and usher in stability in both the regions. "Now, the FAPCCI hopes that an excellent and good new industrial policy will be formed by the new governments in both the states and we will have a conducive climate for industrial growth," A Krishna Kumar, Managing Director, SBI said the objective of bifurcation of any state would be to enhance growth of both the regions. "And we take this as an opportunity because of the fact that once these two states are created, there will be additional opportunity for banking, economic activity and growth." Goutham Reddy, Executive director, Ramky Group said, "The industry was awaiting clarity on the issue. We will now have to build and nurture an entrepreneurial spirit in the Telangana people so that they can contribute to the development of the new state.”

Sundeep Kumar Makthala, founder of Telangana Information technology Association said, “Most multinationals that wanted to invest in Hyderabad had put their plans on hold due to uncertainty all these years. Now with the state formation, investments will flow into the city. However, since all development in Telangana has been Hyderabad-centric, there is an urgent need to develop tier-II cities such as Warangal and Karimnagar as IT centres."

Bhagawantha Rao, Managing Director, State Bank of Hyderabad said, “The expected new capital, surrounding infrastructure and other developments in Andhra Pradesh will be a good opportunity for new business. Definitely it spells good business in the infrastructure, construction and other related areas.”

On the other hand, G V Prasad, chairman and CEO of Dr Reddy’s Laboratories, does not view it as a big deal. “For a while now, manufacturing units have been moving towards Vishakhapatnam. This is not because of Telangana, but due to lack of clearances from the pollution control board to set up sites around Hyderabad. I don’t see much of a hindrance as we do business all over the world,” he said.

It would comprise of 17 Lok Sabha seats and 119 assembly constituencies. Situated on the Deccan Plateau, in the central stretch of the eastern seaboard of the Indian Peninsula, the region is bordered by the states of Maharashtra to the north and north-west, Karnataka to the west, Chhattisgarh to the northeast, Odisha to the east and Andhra Pradesh to its south. The region has an area of 114,840 square kilometres with a gender ratio of 987 females per 1,000 males and the literacy rate is 59 per cent. Economy of Telangana 45 per cent income of the existing state of AP comes from this region. Telangana is estimated to have 12,308 industries with the bulk of it concentrated in and around Hyderabad; the rest of the region is devoid of much of industries. Its economy is likely to bank upon the information technology (IT), health, tourism, pharmaceutical and other manufacturing sectors. Efforts now need to be made to give a push to the manufacturing and other segments in the region, including Hyderabad. People in power have to ensure the development of the districts particularly Warangal, Adilabad, Karimnagar and Nizamabad, which are at a distance of 150 km and above from the city. The mainstay of some of the districts has been food processing, poultry, dairy, weaving,

Connectivity Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi International Airport one of the major airports in Asia is the jewel in the crown and the only existing commercial airport in the region. The region is well connected by railway network. Secunderabad being the major hub with the South Central Railway headquartered here provides a wide network of connectivity between the north and south of India. While Warangal is a nodal railway junction on the Hyderabad-New DelhiVijayawada-Chennai-Kolkata route and part of the South Central Railway zone of Indian Railways. All the districts are well connected by the railways except Medak from where the nearest railway station is 17 kms away at Thippapoor and Karimnagar is not at all connected with the rail network.

The region has numerous lakes too. There are also extensive coal deposits, which are excavated by the Singareni Collieries Company, for power generation and industrial purposes. The limestone deposits in the area feed the cement factories here. Significant deposits of manganese, bauxite, china clay, granite, feldspar and mica are available here.

52% of the capacity in Telangana lies in hydro power, which is available only when reservoirs receive good inflows, while just 48% capacity is available through coal-fired power plants. Currently, APGenco is building 3,210-MW capacity plants. Of these only 30% (960 MW) is coming up in the Telangana region. NTPC, a state-owned PSU has an installed capacity of 4,610 MW of which 2,610 MW is generated in Telangana. It is gearing up to add 1,320 MW in the region. There is an urgent need to develop power plants in Telangana as the IT industry needs uninterrupted power supply. As such the Cabinet recently decided to bring an amendment under which 85% of the electricity generated by central units will be allocated to the two states as per population and only 15% will be allocated based upon their actual consumption pattern of the last five years.

Power Scenario

The Hyderabad Advantage

Telangana may face problems on the power front as the region largely depends on lift irrigation schemes for agriculture and drinking water, which consumes a lot of electricity. According to experts, Telangana is likely to face power shortage of up to 2,000 MW after the state is formed. Of the 8,924.86MW installed capacity of state power utility APGenco, about 54% (4,825 MW) is located in Telangana region. However,

Telangana has the advantage of having a readymade capital with all the necessary infrastructure and ecosystem in place. Hyderabad with a ‘worldclass infrastructure’ including the Outer Ring Road, connecting radial roads and the upcoming Metro Rail will kick start growth which was stalled in and around Hyderabad for the last five years. The city will continue to grow on account of outstanding infrastructure,

Economy of Andhra Pradesh The State is estimated to have 13,284 industrial establishments across sectors and sizes. Agriculture, mining and international trade through the ports along the long coastline are the mainstay of the economy. The ports continue to reap rich harvest by way of export and import of commodities such as iron ore, coal, crude oil, sulphur and other products. Vizag is on an expansion mode and aims to become a major sea port in South East Asia. Thermal and hydro-electric power production, oil and natural gas, especially endowed with huge reserves in the Krishna –Godavari basin drive prosperity here. Other key revenue earners for the state include pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, automobile, tourism, textiles, retail, leather, IT, Iron and steel, mining and religious tourism.

The real estate segment too eyes better scenario and opportunities out of the developments. While the industry was divided on the issue of Hyderabad losing some of its business to other major cities in the SSAP, but they unanimously maintained that the joint capital would see a drastic correction in realty rates that had touched rock bottom lately.

Its cosmopolitan culture suits multiple industries. During the last two months, we have seen that several people from neighbouring districts of East Godavari, Vizianagaram and Srikakulam have started investing in Vizag. Earlier, people from Vizag alone would buy flats or plots here. But now it is changing."

ample land for further expansion, located at the centre of AP, well connected with all major towns and cities in South India, availability of abundant groundwater, two railway divisions, medical colleges, teaching hospitals and universities make it an ideal place for the capital.

But now it is time for various realty projects to take off, which were on hold due to the prevailing uncertainty and ride the growth wave.” Kolla Syam, Secretary, Builder’s Welfare Association, Guntur said, “Now in anticipation of Vijayawada becoming the capital people even from Hyderabad and Vizag region have started investing here. With the immense business potential of the region, Vijayawada is poised to emerge as the financial capital of the new state just like Mumbai is to Maharashtra and maintain an upsurge in the real estate prices in the VGTM region,”

Telangana may lose out on access and opportunities to eastern coastline, which has major ports. While AP could lose a major market inherent in the huge population, business and market concentration of the city of Hyderabad. Given the indications, there will be development of massive infrastructure in AP region in future which in turn would lead to industrial development especially in and around its new capital, scripting a golden period in the history of AP with a lot of growth centres springing up along the coastline. While the Telangana region will be benefited in the form of right valuation of the physical assets owing to political stability which was stalled in and around Hyderabad. It would decongest Hyderabad leading to a decentralised pattern of growth in the region very much the need of the hour according to industry heads. However, it all depends on how the funds are pumped by the Centre for the creation of new AP capital city, creation of social infrastructure and connectivity of the regions with the external world, the industry opines. jydip.mukherji@gmail.com

Ownership document, plans are also required to be submitted at the time of applying for permission.” While on the other hand the 'Green Channel' initiative has been recently launched by HMDA for speedy disposal of layouts. As a part of the initiative, layout approvals would be given to property developers within seven days from the date of submission of application. The applications would be accepted at Citizen Facilitation Centre (CFC) at the HMDA head office on mondays and thursdays between 10.30 am and 1 pm. Neerabh Kumar Prasad, HMDA commissioner in an exclusive interview to Horizons informed, “Earlier when Green Channel inititative was launched by HMDA in 2009 it did not do well. At that time many new developing areas were added to HMDA. Realising such an initiative involved reengineering of all the processes we were unable to change the time taken in the whole process. Therefore we looked at it once again. This time we called it modified Green Channel and have launched only for layouts. Gradually in phased manner it would also be initiated for giving permissions for group housing and multi-storied complexes, industrial, institutional and other categories too. The process would enable to study how this takes off and help us evolve the mechanism for other categories too.” Neerabh Kumar Prasad giving details of the initiative further informed, “The applicant should approach a licensed architect and a document auditor (advocates) empanelled by HMDA for scrutiny on the

memos for scrutiny and check memos for points of inspection have been prepared by HMDA. Within seven days the intimation letter for draft approval of layouts would be issued. Subsequently for fulfilling the conditions precedent like execution of mortgage deeds and payment of balance fee if any, another seven days would be given. A 'Help Desk' has been set up at CFC where all queries will be answered and guide the applicants to fill the applications and other technical aspects will be explained.

ownership of property, who would check whether the plans are in conformity with relevant rules, regulations and master plan. Then the application from an applicant duly approved and attested by licensed document auditor and a licensed architect is received at our office. The document auditors are advocates enrolled with the bar council to give a prima facie clearance that the land title is clear.” Prasad added, “The authority would not charge any fee for disposal of the applications under Green Channel. However, the licensed architect has been asked to calculate fees towards development charges applicable on a project. The applicant has to submit the application along with fees in DD. The processing fees for the application will be deposited in cash in the special bank counter along with the application in our office. Now the whole application proforma has been reengineered based on this concept of licensed architect and document auditor. And the role of town planning wing of HMDA is to cross check; hence a new application format has been laid out. Check

Prasad said, “Within the next seven days the approved plans are handed over. We have even gone to the extent that if the applicant doesn’t come within 7 days to collect the approved plans, on the eighth day it will be dispatched by speed post to the applicant’s address. These plans may be or may not be inspected by HMDA within seven days. The maximum time allocated by HMDA to verify whether these documents are prima facie in order is 30 days. Incase documents are not in order letters with the points of clarity asked for will be sent to the applicant within thirty days. Incase the applicant is not in agreement with the points raised, he can have a one to one meeting with the chief planning officer or director planning to resolve with the objections raised.” Commenting on the initiative, M Vijaya Sai, secretary general, APREDA said, “It was a long standing demand from the developers. We are happy and welcome the decision of HMDA to launch this initiative. It is a step in the right direction and I am quite confident the success of this initiative would encourage other states to take it up.” In respect of layouts near water body, heritage sites, airport, the chief planning officers of the respective areas have to inspect the sites. In case, the application does not confirm to rules and regulations or the submitted documents are not in conformity, it could be rejected. The authorities might also call the applicant to seek clarification. In such cases, the applicants have to resubmit the application along with the processing fee again to the authority, he said. The developers would have to pay Rs 2 per sq metre fee to the respective gram panchayats for releasing


Special Report them as HMDA would only give technical approvals and final plans would be released by panchayats on payment of their fees. M Sridhar Rao, governing council member, APREDA, commenting on the initiative said, “Green channel initiative of HMDA is a step in the direction of ushering in good governance and is going to boost the morale of the builder developer community, which is at a low ebb because of the prevailing market conditions. It would foster an era of transparency and eliminate time lost earlier in the process of attaining sanctions and approvals. And as the saying goes time saved is money earned. But the process of collecting fees at the gram panchayat level for layout approval can be eliminated and it could be collected at the HMDA itself. Also they could go a step further to a single window clearance system where approvals from various utility departments like power, water works and sewage could all be facilitated on a common platform.” The commissioner informed for group housing and multi-storied complexes there could be a time frame of 14 days as it needs little more working. The ultimate aim is to bring everything under the green channel mode. HMDA is maintaining the record of licensed architects and auditors. Incase any application is rejected a copy would go to them. It helps to monitor their performance and take a call on renewing their license. In case of any deliberate misrepresentation as per the licensed agreement, there is a clause to take up the matter with the

council of architecture and bar council. The commissioner is talking to JNFAU, Institute of Town Planners, Institute of Architecture to introduce a week long certificate programme so that these licensed architects are well aware of the rules and regulations. Once the Green Channel is crystallised the normal mode would be discontinued. The normal mode has still been kept open until the process of Green Channel stabilises. Neerabh Kumar Prasad appealed, “On this occasion I would look forward to bodies like APREDA and CREDAI to set up Green Channel Seva Kendra with availability of licensed architects and document auditor, so that the applicant can process their papers and then send it to our office. It could be real service that they could provide to the community of developers and builders. Once all these development permission are put in place under the Green channel it would be a great help to the developers and HMDA

to reduce the timelines and for HMDA to focus on other town planning and policy decisions.” Speedy disposal of applications will benefit applicants to put an end to their never ending trips to department offices. It will ensure faster clearance of planning permissions and accelerate service delivery mechanism to the applicants. A total revamp of the existing scrutiny system, the new facility has standardised format for application, scrutiny performa and intimation letter devised for a transparent approval procedure. It could act as a model of interaction between the government and public that could be replicated by other departments, which is so apt with the changing times. It is a bold initiative of HMDA that would enable to move towards an era of self autonomy from the traditional system where there was over dependency on the executive to scrutinise the veracity of documents submitted.

A time will come when home automation can clean the whole house, wash utensils, clothes and arrange them in their respective spots, cut vegetables as you like. And yes, take care of the little ones, too. The rest I leave it to your imagination.

Selection of trees for your garden When selecting trees, one should first know what they want the tree to do, should it provide shade or block certain views or act as a focal point in the garden. Once the purpose of the tree is decided, the selection becomes easy. Basically there are two types of trees, Deciduous and Evergreen. Deciduous trees sprout new leaves in spring and carry them throughout the summer. Evergreen trees on the other hand retain their

Triangularis Palm has large pinnate blue-grey leaves that grow on three sides of the trunk and forms a spectacular and unusual crown shaft. The triangle or swirl formed by the leaf bases looks very dramatic and attractive. Raphis Palm also known as lady palm is a dense palm with multiple stems bears dark green and glossy leaves.
