Mahagunpuram: Wrongdoing of Mahagun in Mascot project

Sir,

Kindly note that the High-Rise towers Milano and Ferrara located in group housing 'Mahagun Mascot' is unsafe for human in habitation. The said towers lack the necessary open space/setback required for fire fighting. As per the National building Code and Ghaziabad building code the towers as high as Milano and Ferrara (60 meters 2 stories tall)need atleast 15 meters wide open space infront and on all its side. Additionally as per National Building Code the high rise towers Milano and Ferrara must abut on the outer road meaning that there shall be no obstruction between the tower building and the outer road. However due to the presence of the ILLEGAL SHOPPING COMPLEX , constructed right in-front of the said towers, the necessary open space in-front of the said towers is reduced to 6 meters only. The shopping complex is an illegality and its approval has been acquired by paying bribe money to Ghaziabad Development Authority. The space on which the shopping complex has been constructed has to be left open and by no stretch of imagination can any construction be raised over that space. As a result in the event of fire the residents of high rise towers Ferarra and Milano cannot be rescued by the Fire Fighting service. The fire tende cannot operate in the reduced space. For buildings as high as Milano and Ferrara at-least 15 meters is needed. There shall be heavy casualty (DEATH) in hundreds in these 2 towers. The recent fire in AMRI hospital in Kolkatta on 9 December 2011 where 93 people were sent to their death is a perfect example of how setback and open-space violation can result in deaths. AMRI hospital was just a 5 (FIVE) storey building, Imagine the death toll in 21 storey building. You may also read about CARLTON TOWERS Bangalore where setback/open-space violation resulted in huge death toll due to fire. You should also note that Mahagun has provided NO side setback (inter tower). As per laws atleast 15 meters has to be provided but only 1 meter has been provided instead. All the four towers (Verona, Ferrara, Milano and Bettina) have been shown as one single tower in the map/plan and with the aid of this misrepresentation the side setbacks have been done away with.

You think fire cannot effect you. Well think again, The people who died in AMRI Hospial kolkatta probably also thought the same.

Why should you sacrifice your life and your family member's life for the sake of builder's illicit profit? Why should your children die of burn injuries and suffocation so that a spineless corrupt GDA babu can make bribe money?

I have been fighting Mahagun since January 2011 in courts and have got reasonable success. The Hon'ble Ghaziabad Consumer court has restrained (stayed) further construction of the shopping complex.
The decision of the district forum has been upheld by the Hon'ble STATE COMMISSION Lucknow.

The affected tower buildings Ferrara and Milano are now occupied. The possession to these affected towers has been given by Mahagun without even getting FIRE NOC from chief fire officer Ghaziabad. This is against the law and will be challenged in court in due course. But the more important matter is that YOU THE CURRENT RESIDENTS OF MILANO AND FERRARA HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO GRAVE DANGER. For the sake of saving penalty amount the builder has irresponsibly given possession without getting the clearance. This means that if an accident occurs in the building the statutory government authorities cannot be held responsible. The authorities will simply raise their hand-up and deny any responsibility whatsoever. You have taken possession at your own risk when NOC has not been given by authority. Hence you and only you shall be responsible for any accident such as a fire tragedy.

Mahagun is treating me with vengeance. Instead of accepting his mistake and rectifying it Mahagun has decided to hurt me. He has shamelessly withheld my flat and has threatened to never handover my flat. Is this the way to redress grievance? Can't we the conman man not even have the right to demand a safe environment to live in?
Mahagun thinks that by blackmailing me he can force me into withdrawing me complaint. But he is wrong. Mahagun is 'shooting the Messenger'. Is it wrong to avert a fire tragedy? Is it wrong to protest public endangerment?
Mahagun has forgotten that he is not just hurting 1 person but by constructing the illegal shopping complex Mahagun has jeopardized the life safety of 1200 innocent people. SHOPPING COMPLEX IS A DEATH SENTENCE TO THE RESIDENTS OF MILANO AND FERRARA, there is no doubt about that. People have a right to now that they are living in danger.

I request you to read my post carefully and try to understand the gravity of the problem. In India the cost of human life is cheap. HINDUSTAN ME INSAAN KI JAAN KI KEEMAT VIDESH KE KUTTE SE KUM HOTI HAI. THE COST OF HUMAN LIFE IN INDIA IS LESS THAN A DOG'S. I had to right these words in utter disgust. What should have been done by the authority is being done by me at a huge cost on my finances and my health. Tragedies don't come with a warning, please be vigilant and prepared.

"[Mahagunpuram]" Another cheat by mahagun

Hi,
   I have booked flat in mahagunpuram phase-II in 'Kaveri' Tower. After payment of 45% within 45 days they've demanded installment of 5% which is due on completion of foundation on 16 Dec 11. Due date was 25 Dec 11. i've got my project financed with HDFC. I forwarded demand letter to them. However when they not released my installment, i enquired with them. They told me that after technical evaluation of project, they found that construction progress is not matching with installment demanded. When i enquired with mahagun officials they told me that their is some problem and it'll be sorted out within 15 days. However it is not sorted out till date.
     This shows how greedy mahagun people are. They are fooling their customers by demanding money much in advance ahead of construction progress. Think about plight of those buyers who are paying installment from their own pocket. They are being made to pay even before start of foundation.

Another negative review of Mahagun Builder

Source: http://www.mouthshut.com/review/Mahagun-Ghaziabad-review-mnnsmttpon
----------------------------


Dear Friends,

It has been one of the most unfortunate decisions of my life to book Flat at Mahagun Mascot – OSIMO 1317 in the name of Mohit Sharma R/O Sector 82, Noida – 201 304.

Mahagun

 Mascot Flat was supposed to be handed over in March 2010 and has not been handed over till date.

I was categorically shown the track record of Mahagun India company for timely possession and their company motto – “We Deliver What We Commit” and I made the decision to book flat at Crossings Republic Project at higher price with respect to other builders in the region – a decision that I currently regret.

My considerable life savings have been invested and now stay – badly stuck up in their project as till date I have no commitment/written/oral Confirmation from Ms/ Mahagun India Pvt. Ltd. about when my Flat – OSIMO 1317 will be handed over to me.

Builders logic that due to commonwealth games labor was not available falls flat as many projects which started later are now finished and delivered to customer around an year back - classic example Crossings builders flat.

The project got delayed because the builder kept increasing the number of flats in the project due to great demand at that point of time - launching one tower after the another.

I believe they knew at the very outset that project would be delayed and we will handle that by distributing cheque.

However, During the entire duration of delay and till date - I ended up paying EMI as well as Rent. And I am sure there will be many more like me.

I draw your kind attention towards the following figures:-

Flat Over Due Duration From June 2010 to Dec 2011 – Eighteen (18) Months

Interest Cheques Provided to me by Ms. Mahagun (June 2010 – April 2011) :-

1. INR 15,500/- x 10 = INR 155,000/-

Mahagun Mascot People take great pride in telling that we disbursed the cheques - big deal. They already have close to 80% flats sold out which clearly means that they have close to 90% of all money already paid to them.

Do the maths - i m not sure but I guess (n believe it too) it is not coming out of their pockets for sure...

I will just share my scenario here.

Expenses Incurred by me :

1. Bank EMI - INR 18,500/- x 18 = INR 333,000/-
2. Rent Paid (since that flat’s possession has not been given to me as promised by Ms. Mahagun India Pvt. Ltd.) = INR 306,000/-

I would again like to re-iterate that till date, after repeated follow ups, n number of emails and personal visit to their office - I have no commitment/written/oral Confirmation from Ms. Mahagun India Pvt. Ltd. about when my Flat – OSIMO 1317 will be handed over to me.

I have taken loan from Syndicate Bank and the bank is considering to increase the Interest Rate and the Flat Possession and Registry, and subsequent Mortgage to the Bank has not happened till date.

Due to Non-Possession of Flat OSIMO 1317 on time, I have incurred additional investment of INR 151,000/- till date and if the Flat Possession does not happen till December 2011, I will continue to make additional, totally avoidable investments.

On top of it, I received a call from their side that I need to make additional payments close to INR 350,000/- (due at the time of possession of the Flat) right away, which is justified as per the contract but totally unacceptable in the current circumstances.

All Mahagun Mascot Customer Care reps say is you pay the balance amount - possession would follow sometime soon - and we cannot say exact date.

On top of it, they claim to be ISO 9000 company but let me tell they dont even have a process to handle customer complaint.

AGM Customer Care for Mahagun Mascot says she does not know about the complaint where as I have a receiving copy for Nov 7, 2011 and she has that copy too in my file but still, since they do not have a process - the letter stayed in file and would have stayed there if I had not bothered to go to their office.

And they also have a demand letter for funds tucked in right after that. There are 20 calls made to check up on that but not a single call to reply to my complaint.

How they got that ISO certificate is anybody’s guess now :)

Mahagun Mascot AGM I met today Dec 14, 2011 - very courteous lady but like a robot - only thing she is keen on is YOU PAY BALANCE MONEY and you cannot do anything about our company as your money is stuck.

She does not know the dates as that will come from construction department.

She promises that I will get a reply from concerned department - I am waiting.

As I would be traveling out of country again and I will not find much time to follow up with them and of course, they would be charging me interest for the outstanding amount....

So, its anybody’s guess - sadly but to cut losses, I will have to make the payment - She is right, i guess... punishment must be served for trusting a local brand like Mahagun India Pvt. Ltd.

I will, like many others make the payment for Mahagun Mascot Flat but possibly government should have a obdusman kind of a body for real estate as well so that consumers like us should not be treated for a ride by builders like Mahagun by keeping cleverly worded contracts and sweet talks by Sales Reps.


Warm Regards,
Mohit Sharma
