REASONS FOR REVISION: 1. Increase in flat area from 464 to 486 Sft. for Single Bed Room and from 685 Sft. to 696 Sft. for Double bed room flat to have more functional areas. 2. The site was totally undulated with boulders projecting on site and ditches caused due to carting away of earth. Leveling was done 3. The site is on the down stream of a lake. The soil met with was loose and there was constant seepage of water. Due to this foundation had to be strengthened which consumed more cement and steel. 4. Specifications for tiles were changed. 5. Additional items like paver tiles for pathways, water proofing of the terraces, construction of retaining walls, lightening arresters, generator backup for lifts which were not contemplated originally had to be taken up. 6. There is increase in cost of Municipal water supply and electrical line charges. 7. The common septic tank was originally contemplated considering the requirements of Rajiv Swagruha and Rajiv Gruhakalpa. As the levels do not permit construction of single tank, two separate tanks have become necessary. 8. In the earlier estimates no provision was made for obtaining municipal permissions for which fee etc has to be paid. 9. The compound wall was subsequently taken up to ensure security and safety to habitants etc. 10. Attempt is being made to provide approach road to the colony directly from old Bombay high way is thought in order to add value to the asset and quality in the living of all people with the provision of a gate. 11. Cost of additional land. ANALYSIS OF THE COST IN LOCAL OPEN MARKET: •The market survey conducted in that area shows that the prevailing market rate is Rs. 2500/- per Sft. This rate is excluding water supply, electricity and other taxes. If the cost of these amenities are added, the actual selling price by the private builders work out to Rs. 2683/Sft. • The cost flat of 486 Sft is Rs.13,03,938.00 and 697 Sft flat Rs.18,70,051 in the open market ·        Pl See the comparative statement of costs HOW RAJIV SWAGRUHA IS CHEAPER • The final cost of flat is Rs.1635 per Sft for single bed room and Rs. 1750 per Sft for double bed room including all. There is no hidden cost. • The Government while sanctioning Rajiv Swagruha programme gave a mandate of provision of houses at cost 25% less than the prevailing market value on similar specifications. • Considering the prevailing market value and the revised value for Rajiv Swagruha “Aarambh” allottees the difference works out to 39.04% to 34.77% i.e. more than 25%. • Since Chandanagar is the first project and the income levels of these applicants are low comparatively, the value is fixed as Rs.7.95 lakhs for single bed room flat which works out to Rs.1635 per Sft and Rs.12.20 Lakhs for double bed room flat which works out to Rs.1750 per Sft all inclusive for old applicants. • Thus Rajiv Swagruha gives you premium life style at affordable cost.
