Real Estate:Apartments / Flats
Property regulation bill:A model to follow
Soon , homebuyers could breathe easy.

The Union government has proposed a model regulation for real estate sector, which seeks to introduce a number of measures to bring in transparency into the sector. Besides, it also proposes to make builders and developers deliver on the commitments made to end users. The move will help the sector grow fast as it will bring in an element of certainty to the quality and timely delivery schedules, which would prompt investors and end users to invest.
According to the proposed regulation, all the projects will be registered with a regulatory authority, which will be set up soon.

The registration will be granted only if a developer provides information regarding the ownership of the land on which the project will be developed. They will also have to submit a copy of the clearances, approval , and sanction from competent authority, obtained in accordance with the building regulations and all other laws as applicable. All this information has also to be made available to the customers.

The promoter has to provide the buyers details of all encumbrances on the land, including any rights, title, interest or claim of any party in or over the land. He will also have to give the layout plan of the real estate project, along with a plan of development works and specifications of the building or apartments to be constructed on the land.

In order to remove any ambiguities , the new regulation has asked promoters to give details of the common areas, carpet built up and super-built up areas in the proposed project to buyers. Additionally, the investor will also have to give details of all the facilities that the promoter is planning to offer buyers. Under the new guidelines, a developer will also give details of the estimated cost of the building or apartments that are proposed for construction.
The developer has also to give details of the names and the addresses of authorized agents, property dealers and brokers - and the developer is bound to upload this information onto the regulator’s website so that buyers can verify them. The promoter or developer has to furnish a bank guarantee equal to 5% of the estimated cost of the development works to competent authority. This will be forfeited if the promoter fails to complete the project as promised to the buyers. The registration will be valid for a period of three years only. If the project cannot be completed within the stipulated period, the promoter will have to apply for the registration again, but with a fee. If the regulator finds any violation of rules by promoters in meeting the standard of construction or meeting the timeline of the completion of the project, it can cancel a registration and ask a competent authority to encash the bank guarantee furnished by the developer. In that situation, the regulator will ask the competent authority to implement the project as soon as possible.

However, industry is not happy over the proposed regulation . One of the chambers said that the bill is hostile to the industry and concerned stakeholders.

...Indian Universities Web Directory... International Property AddThis Feed Button New business? However small it may be, success requires proper planning, preparation and insight. YOUR RIGHTS In business, there are no guarantees. There’s simply no way to eliminate risks associated with starting an enterprise. But you can improve chances of success with good planning, preparation and insight. Find out what to consider when starting a business. Drawing up a business plan It’s important to draft a comprehensive and thoughtful business plan. Much hinges on it: Outside funding, credit from suppliers, management of your operation and finances, promotion and marketing of your business, and achievement of your goals and objectives. Creating a business plan will force you to think about key issues before you start your enterprise, such as raising money and your projected start-up costs and marketing strategies. This will help you figure out if your idea is a winner. Naming The core of naming a business lies in understanding the trademark law. Trademarks help consumers identify the makers of the goods or services. Often, the name of your company may also be used as a trademark to identify your company’s offerings. What’s in a name, you may wonder. But if you choose something too similar to a competitor’s name, you might be accused of violating the their legal rights, and you could be forced to change it and even pay monetary damages. A good business name should be: ■ Distinctive ■ Memorable ■ Easily spelled and pronounced ■ Suggest the products or services you offer ■ Distinguish you from your competitors Partnerships Many people opt for partnerships with their friends or relatives for doing business, because they feel very comfortable dealing with people they have known for a long time. But before you do, create a Partnership Agreement which should include the following: ■ Amount of equity invested by each partner ■ Type of business ■ How profit and loss will be shared ■ Each partner’s pay and compensation ■ Distribution of assets on dissolution ■ Provisions for changes or dissolving the partnership ■ Dispute settlement clause ■ Settlement in case of death or incapacitation ■ Restrictions of authority and expenditures Financing A new business Money can be raised either by borrowing it from a friend, family member, bank or selling ownership interests (equity) in your business. There’s no hard and fast rule on the best way to raise money; you’ll have to evaluate your situation and decide what kind of loan or investment you’re willing to take. If you are going beyond family and friends for loans or equity investments, you’ll definitely need a business plan. If you take a loan, you will have to repay the money over time (usually monthly), with interest. The lender won’t receive an ownership interest in your business, and you won’t have to share any of your future profits with the lender. On the other hand, if you raise money by selling equity (ownership interests), you will not have to make these monthly payments or repay the investment at any particular date. L e g a l All about you The business of doing business your business is profitable, you’ll need to share the profits with your investors, generally in proportion to the percentage of the business they own. Licences and permits Business licences and permits can range from the general (a basic trade licence to operate a business within a city), to the specific (a permit to sell alcohol/ firearms/food items). Bear in mind that regulations vary by industry. Investigate into the licensing and permit requirements that affect your industry, and avoid any temptation to ignore these important regulatory details. Being out of licensing and permit compliance could leave you unprotected legally, which may lead to expensive penalties, and can jeopardise your business. Location of workplace There is no universal rule for choosing a business location. The biggest consideration is sometimes not where it is but what it is. The building facilities need to be appropriate for your business whether you are working from home, a business centre or a rented space. Or you could take up space in a market with similar businesses or consumer groups. Entering into agreements Be mindful of employment contracts as these take different forms. All employees at a company may be asked to sign the same form of contract, or each employee may have a contract with the employer that is exclusively applicable to his or her employment agreement. It mentions the kind of work the employee will do, for how long, and at what rate of pay. Please consult an attorney who can advise you about Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreements, and clauses pertaining to ownership of inventions, exclusive employment, termination, minimum wages, bonus, arbitration and jurisdiction. In almost all business dealings, every time you or your company agrees to take some action or make a payment in exchange for anything of value, a legal contract is created. Make sure that you and the other party agree on the meaning of any potentially ambiguous words or phrases. Even a misplaced (or unnoticed) punctuation mark can dramatically change the scope of your rights and obligations under a contract. Watch out for commonly misused words. When you agree to bimonthly payments, for instance, do you understand that you will be paid every other month? Or do you expect to be paid twice a month? Some business agreements may be simple enough for the regular person to draft, while others may require the help of a lawyer. Advertising If your advertisement is deceptive, you’ll face legal problems even if you had the best intentions while framing it. In addition, if your advertisement contains a false statement, you have already violated the law. The fact that you didn’t know ‘the information was false’ is irrelevant. Advertisements should conform to laws and should not go against morality, decency and the religious susceptibilities of people. Business Advisors Finally, the key to success for any entrepreneur is to have the best set of advisors, not necessarily the most expensive but the ones you can trust totally. These may includes lawyers, chartered accountants, insurance advisors, and bankers among others. Decide on the meaing of potentially ambiguous phrases. Even a misplaced punctuat ion mark can change the scope of your rights and obligat ions
