Above 300 developers
from 32 cities across the state attended the general body meeting of the
Confederation of Real Estate Developers Association of India
(CREDAI-Maharashtra) held at Vashi recently.
In the meeting, which
was held at Imperial banquet hall, the builders / promoters from the satellite
city raised their voice against the Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) guidelines,
issues relating to the environment clearances and the fire-related guidelines.
Apart from these, the
other important issues that are affecting the construction industry were also
discussed. The developers / promoters felt that these issues not only affect
the industry, but also the buyers. It was also brought to the notice of the
members that the cement price has been increasing. Within a year, the price of
a cement bag has gone up to Rs. 290 from Rs. 210.
This practice by the
cement manufacturers is directly affecting the construction industry & to
protest against this, it was decided that a letter would be written to the
companies & the Cement Corporation of India (CCI) authorities.
The issue of charging
unjustified stamp duty on the basis of floor space index of the plot was also
discussed by the developers or promoters.
President of
CREDAI-Maharashtra, Mr. Anant Rajegaonkar, who chaired the meeting, highlighted
the issues successfully pushed by the association like Development Control
Rules (DCRs) for the A, B & C class
municipal corporations in Maharashtra.
State minister of
state for urban development, Mr. Uday Samant, who also attended the meeting,
said that the DCRs for A, B & C class municipal corporations in the state
would benefit the general public. The new rules will be published by the state
government soon, he said, and promised to look into the issues raised by the
developers or developers.
