Hi,
I visited the site yesterday. Though my booking is in second phase, Eleganza. But I went to one of the towers of first phase to see the quality of construction and finishing. Few points I would like to mention based on my observation and discussion with the staff available.
1. Builder is claiming the possession of first phase will be given in March, 12. Though the construction is going on at good pace, Excel tower is almost complete, but there is lot of furnishing still pending for Gracious and Exclusive.
2. Doors: I specifically checked all the doors of two flats in Excel tower. As per specifications agreed by the builder, all doors have to be wooden frame. But to my surprise only main entrance door is of wooden frame and doors of the rooms are of ply board. Which is definetly a cheaper option. I talked to the person available in the site office and he tried to divert my point and said we are only marketing people, and said he will check project related queries with concerned people and revert.
3. Electricity: As per builder, only SPR has got the approval from govt. and they are already using govt. electricity. So will be using govt.electricity at the time of possession. As per them, none of the builder in Greater Faridabad (including BPTP, Puri, Shiv Sai etc.) could complete the documents required for this till date. This is very surprising to me and hard to believe as well.
Overall progress looks fine but would request everyone to look at the specifications and make sure quality of construction is as per agreed specifications from builder (like doors, bathroom fittings etc). They will definetly try to cut cost in these areas as the prices have gone up in recent past.
