Realty Market : A balloon set to burst

In Delhi and Mumbai, buying interest in real estate market is seen going down and new dealings are less. In a survey brokers say there is decline in deals done by them.

In metros, money from politicians, builders and under world pushed the prices of property to new highs, and the hike was not natural. A positive effect in the market was due to ever increasing Sensex. Those who earned from share market invested in real estate. Now the Sensex has slipped from 21,000 to around 13,000. Interest rate on home loan has also increased. In such a scenario, the real estate market has to fall.

In sub-prime crisis in USA, Indian IT companies are in problem, because they were getting BPO business from multinational companies in USA. To cut the expenses, IT companies may reduce their staff or stop increment in salary. The company will not need any more property for their office. This is the reason, prices in properties are declining faster at Bangalore and Hyderabad, IT hubs of India.

In Mumbai, figures from registration office, indicates that new deals in properties is less by 12000 during the year. This decline is about 20 %.

In Mumbai, 1992-1996 was a bullish period for estates and then in 1996, bearish phase triggered which extended upto 2003. And again 2003-2007 was bullish. The pattern of increase in price was similar during both the bullish period. For the latest bullish period, besides share market, decrease in rate of interest was also the prime reason. Rate of interest from 16 % in 1996, decreases to 7 % in 1993. Low interest rate prompted employees with good salary to buy a home on loan instead of staying in a rented house. Now interest rate on home loan has gone to 12 %, that forced the employees to sell the flat and go for rented house again.

In 1995, when share market got down, there was 30-40 % decline in estates all over India, and that too is feared again now when share market is not in a good position.

But yet, big builders who are capable of holding, do not sell properties at lower price, but offer discounts to the purchasers. Swastik Builder of Thane offered a car against sell of a flat. Even that was not enough to attract buyers, the builder arranged with a co-operative bank which passed loan at 8 % for the purchaser.

The rents are reduced by the owner of flats and this is an indication of the bearish phase in real estate. And if this happens it will continues at least for more 7 years as the last period.

Stamp Duty

STAMP DUTY is a tax similar to any tax one pays to Government. And other taxes, it should be paid on time and must be paid fully. Any delay in the payment attracts penalty. If it is not paid time or not paid fully, it attracts penalty at 2 % per month on the deficit amount of the stamp duty. However, maximum stamp duty can be 200 % of the deficit amount. It is payable on the day or before the execution of the documents. The pay order should be issued in favour of “Superintendent of Stamps, Mumbai”.

You can find out the market value of the property and the stamp duty amount on it from the ready reckoner as follows:

  • You should know the division / village name and C.S / C.T.S. number of your property, which is written in all the agreements done before.
  • From ready reckoner, locate your valuation zone and sub-zone with the help of the division / village name and C.S. / C.T.S. number of the property.
  • From the table know your rate per square meter, then multiply the rate with the built up area of your property in square meters. You will get a value. Reduce or increase this value for lift and depreciation as per the valuation factors given in the Ready Reckoner and you will get a market value. Find out the stamp duty amount applicable to you as per the market value.
  • The department also does this procedure for a nominal fee. This procedure of valuing the property and calculating the stamp duty is known as adjudication.
  • In case of a signed document, adjudication must be done within one month otherwise two percent interest per month will be levied as penalty from the date of signature.
  • An adjudicated unsigned document is valid up to six months from the date of adjudication order up to December 31 of that year whichever is earlier.

Feng Shui for your bedroom.

To improve your love life, however fine it is, you will love to improve it, or you are bored with the look of your bedroom, following tips may help you.

  • Change the whole bedroom including bedroom furnishings, wall colour and accessories. Keep in mind to get balance of the 5 elements and as well as honour the shapes and colours of the house.
  • Make major decor changes within the bedroom, i.e. don't go for the same old stuff. Within bedroom, you must feel refreshing.
  • If you do not have any proper dislike for wooden furniture, buy a wooden bed. Metal is good conductor of electricity and if the bed is of metal, that may create health concern for you and your partner. Do not put any electrical appliances near your bed. Do not use electrical heating pads or massage pads (even if plugged in but not turned on).
  • Check for the lighting to see if it is not too harsh or too dim. No electric appliance sound should disturb your mood.
  • Avoid large plants in the bedroom.
  • Avoid large mirrors in the bedroom.
  • Avoid sharp metal like knives , scissors etc in the bedroom.
  • Create a headboard for the bed and place it against the most solid wall in the bedroom. If the bed is in line with a doorway, hang a crystal between the bed and that area.
