Upgrade to Delays, Lack of Accountability, Lies

Product Implementation Rate:

We booked in Feb 08, and were promised delivery by Sep-08. This shifted to Dec-08, then Mar-09 and most recently Sep-09. Any guesses what the next letter will say? Monthly'progress' reports you get regularly talk in generalities that don't apply to your flat, but more importantly cannot be relied upon to be a truthful representation.

There is a google group(google search BGHOA if you need more details) formed to share and collectively represent our issues and approach the management with our concerns. While we have made some progress(example: a more real project progress report with real milestones that we can actually understand. And even these milestones have slipped by 3 months in the last 3 months!). The "Management'(and these are senior folks) we meet with stonewalls, lies freely and openly to your face, stalls and has no issues not living up to its words.

Multiple issues exist on the common areas, including basic issues like water provisioning, lack of open areas for children(the playground advertised in all brochures is suddenly for'school students only' - purely False Advertising in my assessment), no common areas in flats for residents, an underplanned "clubhouse".the list goes on.

Don't believe just me - talk to the 200+ members in the BGHOA Google group. Misery loves company, you see! If this is what one has to'upgrade' to, I shudder to think what the'economy' class Real Estate company would have been!

Taarikh pe Taarikh, Taarikh pe Taarikh pur ''apartment'' nahin mila - Mila to sirf Tarikh.''

Date after Date and Date after Date but didn't got the apartment. What I got was only Date?

This was one of the famous dialogue of Sunny De...ol in Damini movie. Same story gets repeated in real life - There are dates after another date with no sign of Brigade Metropolis possession date.
As per my agreement the apartment was supposed to be delivered by Sept 2007 but now officially the project has been delayed by two years (Sept 2009). Officially it's two years but technically it's five years. I booked the apartment in Pre-Launch offer and was informed by Brigade marketing executive that hopefully we will launch the apartment in next 2 months and you should get the apartment in next 2 years. Ok, it was my first apartment and I was a fool who fell into those sugary words.

Last official communication (mail & letter) from Brigade was in Sept 2008 that project has been delayed for 12 months due to shortage of cement, sand and labour. Since then there has been a silence from Brigade Executives and there is no further official clarification as why the Project has been further delayed? Now the forums and word of mouth has become source of ''official'' communication channel.

Is shortage of Sand, Cement and labour the real cause of project delay or this has become a habbit of Brigade?

Now let's explore whether shortage of Sand, Cement and Labour are real cause of delay. It can be partial reasons for the delay may be for few days but certainly not for two years.
If there are real shortage of resources then
1) Why did Brigade started Phase 2 booking?
2) Why did Brigade started booking of commercial areas?
3) Why did Brigade started booking of other projects (Brigade Metropolis, Brigade Petunia, Brigade PalmSprings, Brigade Paramount)?

It's greed, greed and greed.

If there are shortage of resources then complete projects which you have committed Read More
