Lodha Palava River View, Dombivali, Thane

By Lodha Group, Thane

I had a similar experience today itself. I received a call from Lodha and was told an attractive offer for employees of my existing employer on flat booking. I thought to check the offer and if feasible would buy. Immediately a cab was sent the next day at my doorstep. I was taken to Palava city - Near dombivali.

The relationship manager was aligned who gave a 3D demo of the project, Sample 1 and a half bedroom, and future project plan and amenities covered on Audio-Video display. I was with my Dad and we feel good after all. And though to take this further.

Then I was asked to meet the Sales Manager, Mrs.Shalini. I enquired for 2 BHK flat and immediately a printout was provided to me with pricing. The carpet area of the flat was 580 sq feet for which the total purchase price was63 Lakhs. Further, this price was for a 1st floor flat.

When enquired about flat on the 11th floor, The price went up to 77 Lakhs.

Salesgirl started pushing me to swipe for 45000 and get flat booked. She kept saying I will able to save 3-4 lakhs if booked today, Today was the last day of the offer.

hen I went into minute details about the project. Their pamphlets do not mention about parking. When asked, the sales guy told parking is available and will be provided. but he was not ready to provide details or maybe he wanted to hide.

In less than 2 minutes she presented the Show flats and disappears. As if she didn’t have any interest in selling.

You can see the huge loot in pricing.

When I told sales girl, I have to think and discuss once with family members, the girl got rude and started telling you should have planned and come. Then when I started walking She called his boss.

I really felt disappointed the way she was speaking rudely with me. I don’t know what kind of recruitment criteria Lodha had. Its worst experience ever.

1 bhk on rent just earns me 3500 in hand after deduction of charges. Open looters for leaky deserted place. Takes me 2.5 hours one way to reach santacruz office. The locals have been cheated in land deals by forged signatures, want to sell but zero appreciation in 7 years

On Occasion of Dusshera, I recieved a call from Lodha and was told attractive offer for employees of my existing employer on flat booking.

I thought check the offer and if feasible would buy.

Immediately a cab was sent next day at my door step.

I was taken to Palava city - Near dombivali.

Relationship manager was aligned who gave 3D demo of project, Sample 1 and half bed room, and future project plan and amenities covered on Audio-Video display.

Then I was asked to meet Sales Manager. I enquired for 1 BHK flat and immediately a printout was provided to me with pricing.

Carpet area of flat was 470 sq feet for which total purchase price was 48 Lakhs.Further this price was for 1st floor flat.

When enquired about flat on 9th floor, The price went upto 58 Lakhs.

Sales guy started pushing me to swipe for 45000 and get flat booked.He kept saying I will able to save 3-4 lakhs if booked today, Today was last day of offer.

Then I went into minute details about project. There pamplets does not mention about parking.When asked, sales guy told parking is available and will be provided.but he was not ready to provide details or may be he wanted to hide.

When I saw actual pricing, I would see water, gas pipelines, club house charges payable every year. This charges were in lakhs.For example a gas line was fitted in 6000 in Vashi was charged at 27000 in Palava. You can see the huge loot in pricing.

Lodha was going to charge maintenance from day 1, whereas actual possesion was 3 years laters.

When I told sales guy, I have to think and plan along with parents, the guy got rude and started telling you should have planed and came. Then when I started walking he called his boss.

Sales guys boss gave another offer of reducing 40 rs per square feet.

I smelled the fishy that they want me swipe card  and book flat at any cost.

They kept insisting today was last day of offer and showed me poster "last day to save 4 lakh".

Posters did not have date mentioned for last day.

It was another trick to trap the customer.

Finally, I left the site telling that I was unable to take decision and would come after 1 week.

I started recieving calls saying offers of saving 4 lakh is extended also they are providing additional discounts.

Being aware of all traps, I started making false promise the way guys kept doing.

Now I do not recieve any calls

My flat was booked in Mar-2012. River View_C. Possession was in Mar-2014. It is extended to Dec-2015. 97% of the total cost already paid by me. I am sure like me there are several more customers may be approximately 700 to 800 who have paid like me and awaiting their possession.

Where is our hard earned money going? Isn't it a huge finical scam involving misappropriation of public money.

Where are the authorities?

Where is the strong 56" chest man? After all, the builder is his team member.

So instead of looking for black money abroad, first tap the bottoms of this builder.

meri kismat footi thi jo maine loadha group me flat book kiya. Kiya to kiya, maine aur do char ko bhi duboya.
